Cookie Dough and Chocolate Brownie Bites
Cookie dough and brownie batter are two of life's great pleasure, so why not roll 'em into little balls for on the go snacking? Thank me later!
Lemon Yoghurt Cake with Dulce de Leche
Lemon cake is one of my favourites, and after trying lemon caramel chocolate, I simply had to make a cake version. The coconut yoghurt frosting gives it a lovely sour note.
Vata Cake with Coconut Yoghurt, Lemon Curd, and Rosewater Sprinkle
Some flavour combinations are just wonderful, and this cake is no exception. Citrus, floral, and nutty notes collide in this beautifully sweet and sour baked extravaganza.
Raw Treats in Auckland
I like to eat, a lot. Here is a summary of my August in cakes, biscuits, and cream donuts.
Tropical Papaya Boats
I will admit, one barely needs a recipe to conjure up a fruit salad. However, these papaya boats are so tropical and beautiful that they deserved their own page!
Raw Twix Bars
Candy bars are utterly irresistible at the best of times, so it only makes sense to have a nutritionally dense option on hand. These raw twix bars are packed full of nuts, dates, and cacao - the perfect alternative to the sugar-packed traditional variation.
Salted Caramel Cocoa Pancakes with Cacao and Hazelnut Sauce
Chocolate pancakes? Tick. Salted caramel? Tick. Nutella? Tick. Obesity? Tick.
Peanut Butter and Jelly Breakfast Pudding
Forget toasty sandwiches, try this bowl out for size - peanut butter jelly time suddenly has a whole new meaning!
Orange, Almond, and Pine Nut Babycakes with Cherry Syrup
Winter means oranges galore, and what better way to use them than in a deliciously dense and saccharine batch of citrus babycakes?
Toasty S'mores Pancakes with Marshmallow Fluff
One would be forgiven for thinking that marshmallow fluff is an untouchable fantasy for our eggless vegan friends, but fear not! This peculiar yet delicious stack has a special ingredient that makes it a real possibility.
Salted Caramel Truffle Slab
Salted caramel is the best thing that the culinary world has ever conjured up, in my humble opinion. Instead of consuming copious amounts of refined sugars, why not try this sweet treat made with dates?
Creamy Miniature Jelly Tip Cheesecake
I simply cannot get enough of both cheesecakes and berries, so why not combine them? This tasty treat is a take on the New Zealand classic, the Jelly Tip.
Gooey Banana Cake with Coconut Oil Frosting
Any cake with two layers is a good cake, am I right? Especially when sandwiched with an angel-white coconut oil frosting and served with a mug of tea!
Jelly Tip Icecream Sundae
Jelly Tip is a New Zealand national icon - here I've attempted to make my own healthier rendition of the chocolate, raspberry, and vanilla delight.
European Escapades: A Short Film
7 weeks of travelling squished into one teeny tiny video, in which we went on a sunset canal cruise in Amsterdam, explored Le Louvre, and pondered life atop 6th floor balconies.
Earl Grey and Pistachio Shortbread with Rosewater Glaze
Shortbread is usually laden with butter and sugar, but this vegan version uses coconut oil to achieve the same crispy outcome, as well as a rosewater glaze that gives it an electric pink twist. Tea, anybody?
Crunchy Salted Caramel Slice
A healthy and relatively inexpensive version of the classic caramel slice, in the form of a chewy cinnamon oat cookie base, topped with a thick layer of creamy date caramel embedded with crunchy buckwheat groats, and smothered in a layer of raw chocolate mousse.
Extra Thick Peanut Butter Cups
There's something mouthwatering about the combination of creamy chocolate and smooth nut butter - these little bite-sized morsels are undeniably the perfect sweet snack.
Salted Caramel Icecream Cake with Chocolate Mousse
Who would have thought that salted caramel, icecream, and chocolate mousse could possibly be crammed into one healthy dessert? Certainly not me, but I ain't complaining one little bit.
