Did you enjoy drinking chocolate milk as a kid? There’s something I’ve always found comforting about it, especially when it’s hot outside.
The only thing I love more than chocolate milk has to be chocolate hazelnut milk. It’s hard to go wrong with hazelnuts and chocolate, I’m always down for Nutella flavour anything. Come to think of it, I don’t think I’ve ever met a person who doesn’t like it….
Strawberry season is still in full swing and there’s an abundance of summer berries everywhere. What better way to celebrate than with a beautifully moist and sweet strawberry cake? The sponge is soft, moist, melt in your mouth delicious and infused with strawberry pureé and strawberry essence. …
Chocolate is one of life’s great pleasures, right? Dark, milk or white, I love it all! No matter the weather or mood, there’s always special space reserved in my heart and belly for chocolate. Traditional, mass produced chocolate is something I try to limit though, me and processed foods don’t mix very well these days. Thankfully, it’s possible to make almost anything vegan and a little healthier, so I’m whipping up my own chocolate bars!

It’s officially summertime! My favourite time of year, not only for the extra sunshine, but the seasonal produce. Cherry season is always one I look forward to. Although the birds got to most of them on my tree, there’s still an overflow of juicy cherries at my local market and I’m enjoying them on the regular….
Are you a lemon lover? It’s probably the only fruit aside from bananas that I enjoy every single day. I love it’s uplifting aroma and zingy flavour and use lemons in hot and cold water throughout the day and always incorporate them in sweet and savoury dishes. Considering how much of a lemon fan I am, it’s a surprise I haven’t made these sooner….
Salted caramel. One of those flavours that almost instantly makes my mouth water. I’m usually too impatient to wait until after dinner for my sweet fix, so I love dessert flavoured breakfast bowls. These salted caramel smoothie bowls taste heavenly and I can’t wait to share this recipe with you! They only take a couple of minutes to prepare and are fuelling me through my busy days at the minute….
I’m really into no bake treats at the minute. I’m rarely using the oven now it’s getting warmer, but I still want a little something sweet ready to snack on in the fridge. If you love peanut butter and chocolate as much as I do, this recipe could well be your new BFF. These peanut butter fudge bars give you ALL the good flavours, take just 10 minutes to prepare, set in the fridge and you only need 5 ingredients!…
One of my favourite things to do is make a healthier version of a classic sweet. Especially if I can make one that’s good enough to have post workout. Cake is for anytime, not just for dessert, right? These chocolate cheesecakes may look just like their sugar laden counterparts, but they’re protein packed, refined sugar, dairy and gluten free and full of wholesome ingredients!…
This recipe is one you’re going to want to make over and over again, I promise! I’ve recently fallen in love with making pastry and I have been very excited to finally share my go to pastry recipe with you. For me, pastry screams out for berries, so of course I had to fill these little tarts with the first of the season’s strawberries. With a scoop of vegan vanilla ice cream, you’ll feel like you’re in the middle of summer when you bite into one of these babies! …
There’s a couple of milkshake shops in my city and for years I’ve walked by them, glancing longingly at the extensive menu and wishing they’d have a change of heart and decide to go dairy free. You can get pretty much any sweet or chocolate you can think of blended up with ice cream or ice cold milk. As tempting as they look, I can’t stomach dairy or huge amounts of sugar any more, so I decided to create these super easy, delicious and secretly nutritous cookie dough milkshakes! …
