Chocolate Creme Brulee … The Le Cordon Bleu Chocolate Bible
Le Cordon Bleu Chocolate Bible is here. This one book is a chocolate lovers dream, a book with recipes you can recreate, and easily so. The instructions are clear and simple. It's not an overwhelmingly overdose of chocolate in any way. It is a sweet reaffirmation of the quote "9 out of 10 people like chocolate. The 10th person always lies". From tarts to truffles, cakes to creams, this step by step guide is a must-have for chocolate lovers. I'm sharing a quick & easy recipe for Chocolate Creme Brulees from the book... indulgent little pots!

Baking| STOLLEN PUDDING … a Daring Bakers Stollen in Bread Pudding
I stole the Stollen we made for Christmas with the Daring Bakers and baked it into a STOLLEN/BREAD PUDDING! Mmmm...just the perfect dessert for a cold wintry day, good to the last crust. Dried tart cherries, slivered almonds and a sifting of sugar dressed it up! Merry Christmas!

Garam Masala Fruit Cake … a twist to the traditional, my recipe from scratch!
A Christmas Fruit Cake with a twist. Have you ever added garam masala to your fruit cake? You really should try it. It doesn't add curry flavours to your cake, I promise. It adds deep warm winter flavours that mingle with the fruit ever so deliciously, you'll wonder what kept you away so long.

Baking | Lebkuchen Cream & Genoise Verrines with Apple Craisin Compote
I love verrines for their appealing looks. Play around with layers if you like. The space within is your canvas. Lebkuchen flavoured cream whipped to soft peaks mingles gently with the vanilla genoise cake crumbs, moistening it as you allow it to stand in the fridge for a couple of hours. It permeates the layers and infuses the lebkuchen spice aroma right through. This is a light dessert, yet quite satisfying. Include a layer of compote between the crumb and cream layers too if you like. Verrines are a wonderful playground of colours and textures.
