Delicious Old Fashioned Eggless Chocolate Cake with Balsamic Strawberry & Cream Filling
We loved this cake! It's special because it is a layered cake, EGGLESS, no butter and still deeply decadent and 'chocolaty' moist! I filled it with a balsamic strawberry and cream filling, and slathered it with a deep decadent chocolate ganache using a 65% dark chocolate - divine!

Frozen Dessert| Strawberry Fresh Mint & Lime Sorbet … summer’s here & macarons too!
What better way to welcome the dreaded HOT days of summer. This is a natural and sensational sorbet to beat the heat. It is fresh and exciting, and a wonderful way to use summers bounty. My mint patch is overflowing and I loved that I could add fresh mint to the strawberries.

Delicious Strawberry Apple Crumble … a very easy heart friendly dessert!
One of my favourite fruit bakes ... A heart friendly dessert with complex carbs, delicious fruit and low calories. Use fruit of the season, stone and pip fruit work great here, throw in a handful of chopped dry fruit, almonds, pistachios, walnuts etc, then throw in some tart cherries, craisins, raisins if you like, add some fresh herbs like thyme for a nice Spring feel … and bake until the juices begin to enticingly ooze out. ENJOY!!

Baking | Roasted Garlic Foccacia … & a salute to the ‘Fukushima 50’!
A handsome splash of extra virgin olive oil, a couple of heads of roasted garlic in the dough, a sprinkling of fresh oregano, sea salt & more garlic on top. I couldn't have asked for better, more comforting bread! It's simple, is ready to bake in a couple of hours, and the olive oil lavished on top gives it a beautiful crust.
