Golden Eve’s Pudding
A traditional dessert with a massive hit of lemon to freshen things up. Combining cooking apples and a gluten free, light as air sponge, this is a lovely end to a meal. The apples cook under the sponge, making them lovely and pulpy! Delicious served with a dollop vegan yoghurt or dairy free custard….
Apple Almond Sultana Cake
This pretty cake uses a decent quantity of cooking apples, so is very moist and keeps well for quite a few days, improving after the first day, so it’s a handy one to make ahead of time if that’s your style! It’s lovely with a cup of tea or served warm as a dessert. …
Fig & Orange Cake
A cake inspired by seasonal Spanish ingredients that will bring a little sunshine to your afternoon tea table. Lovely, tangy and moist, and of course, quick to make, this is a nice one to share with some friends. The fruit brings a natural sweetness so you really don’t need much extra, hence the small amount of agave syrup used here. We hope you like this!…
Chocolate Beetroot Cake
What better than to use this ruby red vegetable to spoil your valentine? This cake or cakes if you decide to make small ones, far from being earthy and dense, is moist, fudgey and a divine chocolate delight – too good not to share with the one you love. We first made this cake back in November for wedding of some very dear friends and they fell in love with it. Vegan and gluten free, it doesn’t take long to make and keeps really well… so you could make it tomorrow and it will stay tasty until you ice and serve it on Tuesday – maybe with a wee glass of prosecco?! Our recipe made enough for 5 small heart cakes and a 9″ shallow cake – Lots of love x…
Coconut Ice Lollies
If you’ve ever read the ingredients on a shop bought ice lolly, you’ll know they’re invariably packed full of sugar and all kinds of other ingredients that are almost certainly not healthy. This is a super speedy, healthy and delicious alternative. Fresh fruit, agave syrup and coconut milk and literally nothing else! …
Raspberry and red currant frangipani tart
A sweet almond frangipani tart is one of the most beautiful desserts and when set off by the sharpness of fresh raspberries and red currants, it can’t get much better. It really is impossible to tell that this is gluten and dairy free. The pastry is light and crisp and the filling is rich and decadent and you’d expect. A lovely finish to a Summer meal with friends which can served either warm or at room temperature. …
chocolate courgette Cake
Courgette cake might sound a wee bit weird to the unconverted but once you’ve tried it, you’ll understand that courgettes really are a great cake ingredient. All the water content in this vegetable makes a super moist cake and when topped with a rich shiny chocolate icing, it is irresistible! Fear not, if you’ve got too many courgettes in your garden and don’t know what to do with them – this could be part of the solution. …
