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...]
Gluten Free Carrot Cake Muffins
Gluten-free, mostly dairy-free, and wholly vegetarian -- but don’t think for a moment that any recipe in My Darling Lemon Thyme - Recipes from my real food kitchen by Emma Galloway is anything less than mouthwatering. I’ve known Emma online for a while, but last year I had to pleasure to meet her in person and have a lovely chat over lunch. A soft-spoken, New Zealand ex-pat, she is amazingly passionate about food and it comes through in every word, recipe and photo on her blog and in her … [Read more...]
Ombre Key Lime Popsicles
I once got an award at a work Christmas party for something along the lines of "why say something in three words when thirty will do", and while I can be prone to talking about pretty much anything to anyone, I think I managed to use up almost all my words the other day over on that Vegan Butter post. So I'll keep this short, sweet and seriously image heavy... Popsicles are infinitely easier to photograph in winter, especially when the temperature of your living room is hovering … [Read more...]
Preserved Limes and Kaffir Limes – Plus 3 Spice Blend Options
I've never been particularly good at the whole hostess gift thing. It's not that I don't have good intentions -- I see gorgeous ideas all the time -- but somehow anything remotely appropriate hides away in the recesses of my brain until the last moment when in a fit of oh-damn-I-forgot-again I simply grab a bottle of wine on the way out the door. However this past Easter we had plans with friends for a lazy Sunday lunch and for once I came up with an idea in advance. I had committed to … [Read more...]
Pink Princess Rice Porridge
Remember how I said I was going to work my way through drafts and archives? This is one of those, made in Feb 2013 then edited, labeled and uploaded in August in the naive hope I'd post it during our trip last year. The pics are on a different computer, or perhaps a backup drive, and leaving the font on them as-is is infinitely easier than the chain of events required to change it, or re-edit or re-shoot. In other news, pink porridge! ------ I had grand plans for a pink cake. I ended up … [Read more...]
