For the brownies I 
prefer mine to be more 
dense and fudgy rather 
than cakey.

Here are two of my
favourite recipes.

Tant Pour Tant





Perth baker and talented macaron maker
is the home based artisan
responsible for these sweet
tantalising morsels.









DIVINE MACARONS!

Light, chewy and deliciously
decadent.

 You can see
why they
rule the world.








Baked under the name
the flavour combinations are
both creative and mouthwateringly
luscious-
not to mention striking!






With flavours like

 Mango macaron with a coconut mango and white choc ganache
 Blueberry macaron with a blue dark choc ganache
Turkish delight macaron with a rose water milk choc ganache

is easy to see the difficult 
part in all of this.

Which one to choose
..........first.

It had to be the turkish delight!
mmmmmmm delicious.







Rebecca's talent is not only limited
to macarons (a major feat in itself)

but her business Sugar Sprinkles,
also makes the most beautiful cakes
with the finest flowers
I have seen.

Simple pleasures.




A Sunday lie in, 
strong coffee,
Strawberry pancakes with 
honey yogurt 
and childrens' laughter.

So thankful for the 
little things.

Thank goodness for cake.




You know I love to bake!

I also try to live  
(relatively) healthy.

I strive for balance
between healthy and a little 
(mmmm..... ok sometimes
more than I should)
of life's sweet luxuries.

So you can imagine my delight
when my gorgeous 
 - and incredibly healthy- friend
gave me a gift from the heart.





A cookbook with a difference 
by

This cook book is
crammed with the most
mouth-watering
cakes and desserts using fresh produce
from........
the vegetable garden.  
Yes - vegetables!

Love it!





Not only are her recipes 
delightful but the book incredibly
visual and all round inspiring.
With beautiful photographs and 
witty descriptions -
I love her style.

Here is my attempt at her
signature cake

for Dad

Happy Father's Day.







With no flour, butter or oil,
I love how the eggplant is
so
CHEEKY
in this cake.









Goodness never tasted so sweet!






PS
Both my chocolate loving dad
and husband
had second helpings!

Lemon, coconut and raspberry sour cream cake.





If you don't already have a 
delicious lemon cake recipe, 
try this one.




It is rich, moist and
incredibly tangy.




Not to mention easy to whip up!








The best thing about this recipe is the
tangy syrup that when poured 
over the warm cake, 
soaks in
making it sweet and
morish.


I served it with greek
natural yogurt.








Just the thing for an
afternoon with visitors.

Mum's little ginger cakes with lemon icing

                                            


 Lucky for me,
I inherited the 
baking gene from 
my mum, 
and her 
from her mum.  




Both very talented in
making up, adapting
and changing recipes 
 to make something
 different and irresistibly
delicious.

Here is mum's luscious 
spicy ginger cakes with lemon icing recipe.

Enjoy!











Makes approx 18 cakes.
