Strawberries and Cream Buttercream Swirl Cake
An old classic made fresh in this vibrant buttercream swirl cake. This strawberries and cream cake is what dreams are made of. Seriously! And yet it almost didn’t happen at all. I’ve been making a lot of new recipes lately, and I told myself that it was time to just make a decorating video. That’s…
Lemon Poppyseed Cake with Raspberry Buttercream
Pretty poppy piped flowers, and a fabulous lemon poppyseed cake recipe thrown in! “Finally” they all cry in unison! “She actually still knows how to pipe a flower” hooray!! Seriously though, it really is about time I got back to where it all began, and shared a new flower cake design. I said that coming…
Orange Almond Cake with Blackberry Icing
Autumn in a cake! The cake that got me back on my feet. Literally! Standing in my kitchen, with cameras and filming again for my blog, YouTube and Insta was a mammoth task both physically and emotionally. After 6 months off from filming, I was beyond nervous to switch on the cameras. But we are…
Triple Citrus White Chocolate Mud Cake
A triple citrus twist on an old classic mud cake. I love a good mud cake. I spend most of my time baking lighter and fluffier cakes and sweets these days, but sometimes you just want something richer, less sugary, and packed with flavour. Even though I’m a huge dark chocolate lover, I definitely have…
Moist Banana Cake with Nutella Chocolate Frosting
Banana cake and the richest frosting in the world! It’s days like today when I’m thankful to have a blog. All too often we stress our way through our lives, and rarely do we take the time to sit down and think about the direction we want to go in, how we feel about our…
Lemon Loaf with Strawberry Glaze
A berry delicious take on the old lemon loaf When I lived in the US I was an absolute sucker for Starbucks. Give me a white chocolate mocha and a slice of their lemon loaf, and I was a happy girl! I had tried lemon cake, even baked (terrible back then), a lemon poppyseed cake…
Roasted Strawberry Rhubarb Almond Crunch Cake
My new favourite cake recipe! If you make just one recipe of mine this year, make it this cake! I’m serious. I love sweet and summery flavours, but this warm, homestyle cake, literally takes the cake for me. I was worried that the flavours would be a little old fashioned for the girls as…
Passionfruit Mango Raspberry Vertical Cake
Fillings that are wild! I’ve made a lot of cakes, but I’ve never made one as crazy cool as this! Check out the vertical layers in this sweet cake, and tell me you don’t want to have a slice? Plus, c’mon, when you say Passionfruit Mango Raspberry together people can’t help but line up….
Dark Chocolate Hazelnut Cake with Chocolate Frosting
Dark chocolate and hazelnut. Rich, moody flavours, that are going to be perfect for Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve is kind of a big deal in the US. When I lived there I came to realise that it was almost a bigger affair than the day itself. We had a big family get-together, shared food, drinks,…
