There's a distinct possibility I neglected to post this recipe back with THAT cake and THAT buttercream (and originally with THOSE brownies). I didn't really like these photos at the time and figured that I'd re-shoot it sooner than later, but life got in the way (as life does), and for the longest time no one asked about the Whipped Chocolate Coconut Cream filling piece of the puzzle... But the aforementioned cake and buttercream eventually set the world (or at least the … [Read more...]
Vegan Chocolate Buttercream (Dairy Free, Gluten Free, Soy Free, Nut Free, Refined Sugar Free & Probably Paleo too)
I'm calling this Vegan Chocolate Buttercream however it may be more aptly named Vegan Chocolate Not-Buttercream due to the omission of the two main ingredients in buttercream -- butter and an enormous amount of sugar. So if this magical creation really is Dairy Free, Gluten Free, Soy Free, Nut Free, Refined Sugar Free & Probably Paleo how does it exist at all? Air? *whispers* cauliflower. *yells* wait, come back! This is not the first time I've used cauliflower as a dairy … [Read more...]
Best Ever Gluten Free Chocolate Cake (Dairy Free, Nut Free & Probably Paleo too)
This is THAT cake. The one I've been making roughly every other week for the past few months and sharing mercilessly across social media. The one that needs very few words but plenty of photos. The one that stops people in their tracks when they taste it, and again when they realise it's not only gluten free but nut free and dairy free and soy free too, and again when they hear about the frosting. The one I held off on posting until I could justify making a four layer cake by … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: July 2014
It’s once again time for In My Kitchen and as per usual this is a collection of things from the past month — as seen over on Instagram — in loosely interpreted categories and no particular order. As always I’m linking up with Celia for IMK. ------ Kitchen shenanigans I styled a photo simply to rant, this should not surprise you too much. If you want the full story it's here on the original IG post, the important take out points are as follows: a cup of f-off weighs about 7 ounces and oh … [Read more...]
In My Kitchen: March 2014
I managed to only miss one month this time in linking up with Celia for an In My Kitchen post, yet it still seems to be a big one. Here it goes… Kitchen shenanigans A few years back I stopped buying tomatoes in tins. Tins are lined with BPA (bad chemical, google it if you want to know more) and the acid in tomatoes leaches it out worse than most foods. However no tins meant my cooking was limited to smooth sauce rather than lovely, textural crushed tomatoes (yeah, yeah, first world problems … [Read more...]
Ooey-Gooey Gluten-Free Brownies
I could have called these the best gluten free brownies, ever; or perhaps secret ingredient brownies; or maybe even compost brownies; but ooey-gooey was simply too good a description to pass up. SEO be damned. These brownies, of course, have a touch of mad-science inspiration driving them forward ... but first a bit of background. Remember when I won that juicer a few months ago? Well RJ and I have been taking full advantage of summer fruit and veggies for juicing, but each time we'd … [Read more...]
Lamington Fudge Bites – Vegan and Soy-Free
My 3rd blogiversary (in early November) passed before I realised it had arrived. I let Thanksgiving slide by without a mention or a single pumpkin recipe. I managed to outdo myself in December -- with no less than three truffle recipes, two cookies, a pie, an ice cream bombe and some spiced syrup -- but the other day another milestone crept quietly past. I only remembered the day after, while sitting at lunch with a client no less, that I had arrived in Australia 12 years ago intending to … [Read more...]
