I gave you a little peek at these Chocolate Wafers in my Vegan Chocolate Ice Cream post on Monday... they are so totally worth the wait! When it came time a few weeks back to come up with my Death by Chocolate SABH idea I couldn't stop at just the ice cream - it screamed out for something more, but what? Years ago I made these choc wafers and they were perfect. And brilliantly memorable as evidenced by their firm place in my junk drawer of a memory. Crispy fresh wafers which soften … [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...]
A taste of New Years
Just a quick peek into our New Years Eve and New Years Day for you... It started with a New Years Eve Day treat from Gelato Messina. A year of being 90% sugar and dairy free needed to end with this amazing stuff. I could work my way through the entire range in one sitting but instead, RJ and I split a cone of Bounty [Coconut Gelato with Chocolate bits] and Yoghurt & Cherry. After seeing the 9pm fireworks at home [just behind the trees, through the window, almost] we headed down to … [Read more...]
Christmas Eve Feast – a (delicious) new tradition
For all of the Christmas traditions my family has, we have never made much of a big deal about Christmas Eve. Quite possibly because the day before Christmas meant little other than an eight hour drive up to the farm, arriving just in time to make our yearly church appearance and hear the oldies sing at midnight mass. Now I have been whinging about the weather quite a bit lately but far-out, this year has been more like autumn in Philly than summer in Sydney. However Mother Nature finally … [Read more...]
Orange Amaranth Gluten-Free Cutout Cookies
Well, it took me much longer than in past years but I've finally gotten my bake-on for Christmas. Maybe it was the exhilaration of a lunchtime early-mark for the last day of work, maybe it was the sunshine - did you hear that? SUNSHINE and warmth and blue sky, thank goodness - maybe it was the realisation that it was only 2 days from Christmas and instead of 5 different kinds of cookies and 2 different pies and days of planning for a Christmas feast, I'd only made Cranberry Bars and … [Read more...]
Eggnog Royal Icing
Let's get this out of the way up front. The bourbon is out, again. It's Christmas, it happens, embrace it. Also, for someone who doesn't really eat sugar, there have been an enormous number of desserts making an appearance here - and I haven't posted a single savory recipe in ages. We'll get there, one day. But for now - Sugar.And.Bourbon masquerading as Eggnog Royal Icing. Now I don't generally decorate Gingerbread Cookies. When we were younger they got slathered with icing and all sorts … [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...]
