Baking| Roasted Peach & Plum Ice Cream … with condensed milk {eggless}
A delicious, low cal ice cream. I love the depth of flavour that roasting fruit gets. Add a vanilla bean and it gets addictive.

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!

In addition, I went further and sprinkled the tops with a mix of brown sugar & cinnamon before baking, which enhanced the flavour of cinnamon! Flowers on stars!! I love the ‘Think Spice’ monthly event at Sunita’s World. It does make you put on your thinking cap, and actually think the spice…at least with me it does!
