Dairy-free Chocolate Cheesecake
Now, obviously you can’t make a really authentic cheesecake if you don’t eat dairy – you do need plenty of cream cheese after all! I’ve made plenty with soya cream cheese wh…
Cake Pops
My girls have often asked to try cake pops but I always presumed they were difficult to make – surely an orb of sponge is fairly tricky with no gadgety cake pop maker? As it happens, cake pop…
Sinful Chocolate Fudge Cupcakes
These cupcakes are chocolatey, really chocolatey and topped with a rich sticky ganache that turns to a fudgy set icing when it’s cooled, somewhat reminiscent of shop bought chocolate cupcakes…
The Best Chocolate Birthday/Celebration Cake (dairy, egg, soya and nut-free)
I’ve realised that although I make multiple versions of this cake every year, I’ve never posted it as a recipe.
Gingerbread Spiced Swirl Buns
I reckon it’s about time to get a little bit festive and Christmassy round here – I’ve got so many ideas which have been simmering away since last Christmas and I just didn’…
Cherry and Sultana Christmas Cake
Christmas isn’t Christmas without a cake, right? But a Christmas cake that is free-from eggs, milk and nuts is almost impossible to buy.

Maple glazed spiced doughnuts
I love getting requests and this week I was asked for doughnuts, which gave me the perfect opportunity to get all experimental with flavours and designs – bliss! I’ve had a reall…
Waffles – egg-free and dairy-free
It’s nearly Shrove Tuesday aka Pancake Day and the perfect reason for some mid week baking! I’ve got plenty of pancake recipes on my blog, from traditional, crepes to American style puf…
Homemade Crunchie Bars – dairy-free
Thank Crunchie it’s (almost) Friday! Whilst the range of dairy-free chocolate is getting better all the time, it pales in comparison to the ‘regular’ chocolate selection in…
Cinnamon Streusel Coffee Cake
Have you ever had an an American style coffee cake? Not a coffee flavoured cake which were so popular in the U.
Vanilla Spice Hot Cross Buns
With Easter fast approaching, my thoughts have turned towards festive baking and what could be more Easter-y than Hot Cross Buns.

Recently I’ve felt that my blog has gone off the boil, that my recipes were dull and not very inspiring, the photos were so-so and better resources could be found elsewhere.
