Super easy ice cream tart with a biscuit base, vanilla ice cream and fresh summer fruits. No baking and totally delicious. I was not born is Australia. Neither was I raised here.

Coconut Crepes With Yogurt, Mango And Palm Sugar Caramel
20|01|2015
I am surprised at how much I have started to like coconut recently. This comes from someone who has eaten/drank as much coconut as one would eat potatoes or drink milk as a child. I was actually never fond of milk and unfortunately there were no alternatives like almond or soy milk available at that … Read More
Raspberry, Watermelon and White Nectarine Popsicles
16|01|2015
Around Christmas, last year (Oh! that sounds so long ago though we're talking less than a month really) we met a wonderful family. We had met only once before that during the twin's orientation day at their new school. On that day we had excited parent-like conversations, shared anxieties and had … Read More

I made these muffins yesterday in persuit of a few healthy and delicious lunchbox recipes that are going to frequent my kitchen soon. It involved quite a few good healthy ingredients so I was keen to find out if the recipe worked. More importantly, I hoped the little people for whom this was meant … Read More
Chia Seed Pudding With Maple Yogurt And Cinnamon Roasted Nectarines
9|01|2015
Easy and healthy Chia seed pudding that involves no cooking. Served with maple yogurt and cinnamon roasted nectarines. So, I am jumping on the January bandwagon today. Meaning, the food that you guys love to eat in January. Clean, healthy, low-calorie, high-fiber, full of antioxidants...high on Omega-3. To be honest, I wouldn't be able to explain half of those things to you. What tastes delicious to me is what I eat..what is hassle free to make is what I share! I certainly understand and respect the fact that a lot of people do need to follow dietary restrictions and who knows, I may be one of them at some stage in life. But for now, I am happy to create food that tastes great, super-food or not. I have not had a lot of experience cooking with Chia seeds and the only recipe I've shared before are the Orange Chia Seed Friands. I have been meaning to make this pudding for as long as I came to know that it makes a quick, simple breakfast or on-the-go meal with zero cooking. Could not have been a better time to make this. Plus I had another opportunity to use my favourite almond milk in the recipe. This pudding is truely delicious. It reminds me a lot of a pearl tapioca … Read More
Ice Cream Cheesecake with Mixed Berry and Thyme
5|01|2015
This New Year is moving at a faster pace than I had anticipated. We are already 5 days down and I am writing my first post for 2015. I am excited that I have not had the time to look at the calender or worry about the day of the week. It has been relaxed sort of busy this side. I have spent a good amount of time playing with the boys and baking cakes to take to picnics and friend's. I like it when a whole cake is consumed in a day and there are people to share it with. Time is precious. The boys start school at the end of the month. The date is suddenly so close. The 2015 of my imagination and once future plans is here and it gives me a firm nudge every time I say 'Twenty Fifteen' reminding me that a few days from now, I will be packing lunchboxes. Actually, eating lunch alone. And baking without my little helpers. I am aware that this is just so normal and every Mum possibly has dealt with it and will be dealing every year. But I feel a little sad when I think about it. I guess, when the time comes, I will cope. And then there is this little cosy patch on the Internet to give me company. This year I made a resolution. To do all the things I want to do..say the things that … Read More
A Year in Cakes and A very Happy New Year to You
30|12|2014
I remember sitting between boxes and cartons exactly a year ago with a cup of coffee in one hand and a plate of store bought cookies in the other, telling my husband 'I hope this never happens again...it is that time of the year and I am not baking' I had moved houses and I was not particularly happy that my baking trays and cake pans were packed away somewhere. It had affected me in some way that I never believed it could. My husband replied 'Trust me! You will have plenty of opportunities to bake in the New Year' And so it came true. I baked a lot. I experimented and shared. I learnt from my own mistakes. Sometimes I made the mistakes again because I forgot to take notes on paper. Then I got a notebook that was kept permanantly in the kitchen. Before I realised it was stained with chocolate and butter and made me smile every time I looked at it. And over and above everything else were/are those wonderful people who kept me on my toes..who made me feel inspired and valued and belonged. YOU. My dearest readers, followers...people who pin from my site...people who put their trust in me and make the recipes I develop. I want to thank each and every one of you for being there … Read More
Tira-Mess. When Tiramisu met Eton Mess…
26|12|2014
This is the most decadent, delicious and to-die-for dessert I have made this year. The year is just about over so there is great scope that the statement will remain unchanged. I think the holiday eating has just started and before we move on to detox smoothies and leafy green salads, there's enough reason to end the year on a sweet note. Yes? This Tiramisu inspired dessert has the flavours of the Tiramisu combined with crispy meringue and vanilla ice cream making it the perfect 'Mess-y' treat that you can put together quickly and without having to worry about perfection. The perfection here is the 'Mess' that consists of Chocolate swirl coffee meringue, Mascarpone cheese, Vanilla Ice cream and Mocha sauce. All you do is just make the meringue and layer the ingredients in glasses. The taste is totally reminiscent of the Tiramisu. And I haven't even come to the most amazing part...because we are replacing the sponge fingers with coffee meringues, it becomes a gluten free treat that you can make for friends and family who avoid flour. If you have never made meringue before, worry not! We are not looking for perfect exteriors or beautifully piped swirls. … Read More
