A few weekends ago I made a cake for my niece's 6th birthday - but this was no ordinary cake. At the core is my go-to Karma Chocolate Cake. There was Chocolate Fudge Icing and Vanilla Buttercream. There were Sugar Cookies as decoration - who uses cookies for decoration??! There were little silver candies and shimmery dusting powder. There were dreamy pink and purple swirls of icing. You see it was a disco party. And a disco party requires none other than a Disco Cake - with stars and … [Read more...]
Kale Chips
Chips and beer, chips and beer, chips and beer. Well maybe just chips, but still, they would be brilliant with beer. Also, if you have never had Chimay... what is there to even say about it... a spring evening with friends, an autumn afternoon in a beer garden, a winter's night curled up with a good book... Belgian, rich, a little bit fruity, and just simply amazing. However, if you are a perpetual 'gimme a pint of America-land Light' kind of person, while the chips will still go down a … [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...]
Quinoa Tortillas
You know when you try something out expecting one result and what you get is so much better? Yeah, these are that. I noticed recently that Bob's Red Mill has started ranging in Australia - I was excited to say the least. FYI - they have nothing to do with this post, I just really like their stuff ... that said, if they sent me a hamper, I wouldn't say no, what I would do is giggle like a kid at Christmas. I get excited about baking supplies, it doesn't take much. Anyway, while I already have my … [Read more...]
Banana Split Spread
This conversation occurred the other day on the way to work: RJ: oh, so yesterday I ...akldj kdfa kadkjfjf ja sjlkh.... JJ: hold on, hold on, sorry, can you tell me that again, I wasn't listening at all, I was thinking about bananas. RJ: of course you were. Lately, this spread is what I've been thinking about. This, I could eat with a spoon [humm...did eat with a spoon...may be eating with a spoon right now] but it is hypothetically meant to be spread on things. Many years ago I came to … [Read more...]
Banana Bread French Toast
Yep, this is the second French Toast post in as many months. But the first one was savory, so it had to be balanced out, right? I may have a problem. On a list of problems to have, I'm ok with this one. The colour issues on this photo, not so ok with them - harsh light aside, can anyone tell me how to shoot berries and not have them black?? Anyway, imagine them a lovely dark purple. I have to admit that this has been sitting in a folder for a while in anticipation of sharing Banana Bread … [Read more...]
