Eggless Pink KitKat Cake
I was going to share this cake two weeks ago, just before Mother's Day but my website was giving me a lot of trouble so I had to wait. Though I did make it with Mother's Day in mind, this cake would honestly be perfect for any kind of occasion. Birthdays, baby shower, valentine's day, you name it! The best part is that I used my moist, fluffy eggless vanilla cake recipe so it's even suited for people who do not like or avoid eggs for any reason. This is also probably the easiest way to decorate a cake and make it look impressive without piping work or fancy garnishes. If you can't find KitKat Ruby where you are, feel free to use any variety of Kikat chocolates. I hope you enjoy making this cake. Don't forget to tag me if you do. I love seeing your creations.

Easy Vanilla Cheesecake Tarts for Mother’s Day
Mother's day is almost here and like every year I'm excited for this day. It's about the sweetest celebration possible in the universe and we see a lot of flowers and pink treats around, which makes me so happy! The launch of the Kitkat Ruby couldn't have come at a better time. Ever since Ruby chocolate was introduced by Callebaut, I've been meaning to get my hands on it. If you haven't heard about Ruby chocolate, it is the 4th type of chocolate after dark, milk and white. And it's absolutely beautiful with a berry like flavour. These cheesecakes are very easy to make. There is no baking involved, no use of gelatine and everything comes together in minutes. After that, just let them chill in the fridge while you take pride in being so organised. Whether you are treating your Mum or your girlfriends or looking for a pretty looking dessert for any occasion, these are perfect. So what are your plans for the day? Are you doing anything special to celebrate?I've made a pretty looking cake to share with my family. Look out for my post on Sunday.

Zucchini and Chocolate Cake
This is one of the best chocolate cakes I've ever tasted. Was I worried that the addition of zucchini could end up in a weird tasting cake? Not at all!In fact having used vegetables in cakes many many times over, that was perhaps the last thing on my mind. Beet, carrot and zucchini are quite the texture contributors in a cake while lending moisture to the cake and intensifying the existing flavours. If you ever have a doubt, go with a chocolate cake. A strong cocoa like Dutch processed cocoa rarely ever disappoints no matter what other ingredients are present in the cake. I used a simple cocoa buttercream to frost the cake . Normally, I would used my chocolate fudge buttercream to frost such cakes but melting chocolate involves some work and an extra pan to wash so when i'm running out of time, this works a charm. It is not as rich but definitely delicious. Zucchini and Chocolate CakeMakes a 3 layered round 6 inch cake 3/4 cup caster sugar3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar3/4 cup sunflower oil1 tsp vanilla extract3 eggsa pinch salt1/2 tsp cinnamon3/4 cup cocoa powder1.5 cups plain flour3/4 tsp baking powder1.5 tsp baking soda1 1/2 cups firmly packed grated … Read More
Moscato and Raspberry Cheesecake
Easter is almost here and I've been thinking quite a bit about what what kind of dessert I would like to serve this year. Coming up with something new each year can be daunting. Especially since I always make something just for us adults along with the treats for the kids. Well, Easter is often regarded as a day for the kids but we adults also get together during the long weekend and I hate to serve up a chocolate eggs laden treat to the grown-ups. Why not make something different, a bit boozy and indulgent.It wasn't difficult to picture this when I asked myself what would be my dream dessert. It would be fruity, cold with hints of wine and hints of chocolate. The best of all worlds. I spotted this chocolate squirrel which Ferrero Rocher came up with this year and I was instantly excited. A change from the Easter bunny. Though, my dilemma to be honest was how I would really divide that gorgeous hazelnut squirrel. Then I picked up one for every guest. Sorted! Happy Easter my dear friends. Hope the bunny/squirrel brings you plenty of joy and good wishes.
