I’ve made all sorts of chocolate cakes over the past 15 years or so as a baker, a pastry chef & a home baker. I have absolutely loved each and […]
My Favorite Chocolate cake
Sourdough Pide
A sourdough take on the Turkish pide. This light and savory bread is the perfect container for your favorite filling. Possibilities are endless! Get baking!
Sourdough Wool Roll Bread
Super soft, mildly sweet bread leavened with natural yeast and stuffed with your favorite filling. It is fun to make not just eat!
Rye Lovers Cake
As the name suggests, this cake celebrates rye. Cocoa, molasses and hazelnuts all sing in the background letting rye shine through, with its nutty, earthy notes. Just the right amount of sweetness and moist crumb with deep chocolate tones. A rye lovers dream come true!
Egg Puff Party Bites
Boiled eggs, caramelized onion, herbs, cheese and mustard all bundled up into a perfect bite size puff parcel. Doesn’t that sound like the perfect party food? Use store-bought puff or make your own. Either way, these will definitely hit the spot!
Fruit & Nut Jaggery Cake
A deliciously fudgy, sweet and fragrant cake full of dried fruit and nuts. Usually made around the New Year period in Sri Lanka but this is fit for any calibration really!
Mille-Feuille
Alternating layers of flaky buttery puff and luscious custard, this is definitely a slice of heaven. Use your own puff or store bought frozen sheets. Either way these will surely steal any show.
Marmalade and Hot Cross Bun Pudding
Fruity hot cross buns baked in a pool of silky custard. An ideal way to use up those last hot cross buns laying around in your pantry. Serve warm with cold custard for maximum pleasure!
Small Batch Apple Turnovers
Juicy and soft apples encased in a buttery, flaky and light pastry. If you want a weekend project, make you own puff or simply use frozen puff sheets. Either way, these turnovers are pure heaven served on a plate.
Easy & Scrumptious Cinnamon Sugar Palmiers
Buttery layers coated in cinnamon sugar and baked to perfection! Make the best use of puff pastry and turn the blank sheet of dough into these scrumptious Palmiers! Thank me later!
