Carrot cake is a classic. Almost every baking book has a recipe for it and there are so many variations of it. All perfect in their own way. For starters, I’ve tried at least 5 variations of Carrot cake and I don’t think I could pick a favourite. They are all so good. As a […]

Happy Mother’s Day to all the lovely mamas out there. It’s your day and we deserve this now more than ever. This Mother’s day needs an over the top celebration in a way that makes perfect sense to you ( read as the day off for me). Mothers all over the world have gone beyond […]

Lamingtons
It never occurred to me how addictive Lamingtons can be until I had my first one. Having read about them in many of my baking books, I got down to actually making them for the first time only earlier this month. They are good, they are really good. Lamingtons as fancy as they sound are […]

They are chewy, with a crusty top, with chunks of white and milk chocolate in every bite. These are perfect. Blondies are like the cousins of brownies, similar in every way, except that they […]

Even better, this could be […]
