Did you know there are two kinds of people in this world? Yep, those that like lemon flavoured things and those that like cherry flavoured things. Now I'm not talking about the fresh version of these fruits, but stuff like jellies, drinks and hard candies. Just think about it for a moment - you know I'm right. With that in mind, we're at it again... and the Sweet Adventures Blog Hop theme for April is Lemons! Now even though I don't eat the sugary bits anymore I am without a doubt a … [Read more...]
Purple Carrot Cake and Sparkling Apple Jelly Trifle
Yep, it's time again for the Sweet Adventures Blog Hop, and once again I'm back with something slightly outside the norm - shocker. The theme this month is 'Layer upon Layer' and I thought long and hard about what I wanted to do. At the beginning I had intended to make a dessert with lots and lots of layers like a baklava - or something else equally flaky and sticky - but I couldn't bring myself do it. You see, I'm a bit rich-fooded and sugared out right now. It started with March into … [Read more...]

Pink (I may not tell you what is in this) Pie
As I stood in my kitchen the other day I surveyed the goodies I'd been collecting from various markets. The erubescent beets and the ambrosial mango winked at at each other from across the bench-top. I resisted at first. But I was in a mood. I blame it on the purple carrots. I found some organic ones a few weeks back. I made pie with them. It was just a test, a quick experiment to see how it went. I'm in love. I've been on the hunt for more purple carrots ever since. I've just missed them at … [Read more...]
Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream
You need to make this. I need to stop eating it. I'm addicted. It's that bad, or that good, whatever. But it really only has three ingredients I keep saying to myself, and all three are good for you. And there is no sugar. And there is no dairy. And there is no soy. And it tastes SO AMAZING and SO CHOCOLATY and SO VERY GOOD. When we chose Death by Chocolate for the January Sweet Adventures Blog Hop the first thing that went through my mind was 'oh no, the holidays just passed and all I … [Read more...]
Christmas Cranberry Bars
When we chose 'Festive Favourites' as the theme for our December Sweet Adventures Blog Hop, the first thing that came to mind was 'how on earth am I expected to choose just one favourite dessert from the raft of holiday celebratory sweets that are out there'? It just isn't fair to all the others! But I managed [ha!] and if you're busy baking your way through December as well, make sure to join the SABH and link up your Festive Fav Dessert at the bottom of this post. You can also read more about … [Read more...]
