Ricciarelli Hearts

I made my version of these 4 or 5 years ago doing research for a magazine article. They are delicious and very moreish.

Melting Chocolate Moments

These are like Viennese fingers or whirls but all chocolate! Very crumbly melt in the mouth biscuits sandwiched together with dark chocolate ganache. I use fairly reasonably priced chocolate from the supermarket for most of my baking, saving the good stuff for eating straight 🙂     Melting Chocolate Moments Cookies 175g soft butter 55g … Continue reading »

Food Photography Lighting Ideas

  Although I love using natural light for a lot of my food photography, sometimes it’s just not an option. The UK has many days when the sun does not appear and when it does it’s not for long enough! So I have a few lights at hand to make sure I’m not limited. The … Continue reading »

It’s somewhere I had heard about for a while and at last managed to get a couple of nights booked for late September.

Coffee Drizzle Cake

  I do love a coffee cake but don’t make them often as I’m the only one here that likes them, which means I end up eating most (by most I mean all) of it! I decided a cake crossed with a sugary drizzle topping could be worth experimenting with. It was lovely and I … Continue reading »

Daim Mousse Shots

I had an idea this would be rather fabulous if it worked……and it did! I wasn’t convinced the Daim (well they used to be Dime in the UK back in the day, apparently that changed in 2005!) would melt, of course the chocolate bit would but would the crunchy toffee bit?

Chocolate Sandwich Biscuits with Vanilla Mallow Filling

Perfect with a cuppa and friends or an afternoon treat to keep you focused, these are lovely! The mallow filling is so lush and squidgy (you will get messy), also amazing on and in big cakes and sublime on cupcakes. Best eaten within a couple of days, they probably won’t last long anyway, unless you … Continue reading »
