In my post about Terrone Coffee Pop-Up, I mentioned that I have been baking cakes and biscuits to sell at the café. I made my favourite Carrot Cake and Chocolate Chip & Minstrels Cookies, which I blogged about last week. I also made Oat and Spelt 'Digestive'...

I've been a busy bee this weekend, baking loads of cakes and biscuits for Terrone's pop-up coffee shop in Brixton! Photos to come soon... I decided to make simple chunky chocolate chip cookies, because that's one of the things I usually...

I have shared a lot of cake recipes lately, so I thought it was time to make something a little different and out of the ordinary. The Easter holidays gave me time to experiment with an idea I had in my mind! I have always wanted to use Lotus Speculoos...

During lunch at Honey & Co. a few weeks ago, I tried a Chocolate Krantz Cake for the first time. It’s a yeast bread filled with chocolate sauce, pecans and sugar and rolled in a braid shape. I didn't know what the cake was called, as I ordered it...

Sometimes all you need is a slice of simple, delicate, warm yogurt cake! Today I was craving a slice of cake and I just had to bake this! ;) It reminds of home, of being a kid and baking with my mum, of having an afternoon snack (merenda) with a slice...

Yesterday was a beautiful sunny day here in London, the perfect weather for a photo-walk with Charlotte, Sam and Hannah. We met for brunch at Ozone Coffee, to fuel up with caffeine and food. I had filter coffee, Honduras El Cedral 2012 COE, and Buttermilk...

Do you have a favourite cake? The one you can't say no to, the one you would always pick from a menu, the one you would choose as your birthday cake. For me it's a Carrot Cake. I love the combination of a moist and not overly sweet sponge with...

The list of recipes that I want to make has grown so much over the past four months, but luckily the Christmas holidays have been the perfect occasion to do some baking. I used a recipe from Shutterbean blog to make Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins. I like to...
