Raspberry & Vanilla Tart
I have included a gluten free alternative that gives the exact same results. You need Xanthan gum which is a gluten subsittute used in gluten free cooking. You will find it in most supermarkets and health food stores though I haven’t seeen it in Aldi or Lidl. You do not need it if using regular […]
Lemon and Lime Meringue Pie
This is very similar to a lemon meringue pie but needs half the work and effort. It’s a recipe my mum taught me which is perfect as she learnt it from her Kenwood recipe booklet and I wanted to test a Kenwood Chefette mixer for a review. It’s fairly easy to make even more so […]
Simple and Quick Tiramisu
Desserts don’t come much easier than this, you will throw it together in a few minutes then unfortunately have to let it set for a wee bit before you can get stuck in. I searched high and low for the lady’s fingers (Savoiardi) and finally found them when I wasn’t looking, in Lidl of all places. […]

Glazed Strawberry Tartlets
MOST people will look at these and think they are hard to make, yet they are actually really easy. The one’s you see in the pictures were actually made by a lady who came to my cookery school. She never made anything like them before and look at how well they turned out for her. So […]
Fluffy Mixed Berry Cheesecake
I really don’t like many desserts, cheesecake is one I have never liked as I always found them way too heavy, esp after a meal. Because of this I decided to create a recipe that was light and fluffy, one that would be a pleasure to eat after a meal or for those, who like […]

Seriously like, I’m not joking, follow six simple steps and you will be delighted that you did. I get piles of messages from people who never cooked a thing before thanking […]
Lemon & Lime Cheesecake
Light and Refreshing are not words you would normally associate with a cheesecake. They well describe this one. It is easy to make and you can do so in 10 minutes then allow it to set. I would make this one the day before if making it for a special day. This will ensure it […]
