Homemade Chocolate Hazelnut Baci Chocolates

Oh my gosh. I made homemade chocolate hazelnut spread (aka Nutella) the other day. And it blew my mind. I made it at work, and used it to fill chocolate shortbread sandwich cookies. Then I ate a large portion of it with a spoon, before making another double batch, and turning that into little homemade Nutella tarts to sell in the cafe. Man oh man, why haven’t I gotten onto … Continue reading →

Lemon Coconut Bars

Okay so it has been AGES since I last posted and I am SO sorry! It has been a slightly ridiculous week. Actually really crazy. I took on a few extra shifts at the new cafe I’m working at. The days are pretty long and intense in that hot little kitchen, but I got to bake a few of my own recipes to sell in store, which was really fun! … Continue reading →

I wear creased blouses instead of ironing my clothes. I spend … Continue reading →

I’m a huge fan of these, and I’ve been making them since I was about 12. The … Continue reading →


Cookie Dough Truffles

Some time a go, a girlfriend of mine sent me a link to a cookie dough truffle recipe. I saw that as a hint and although it took me a while, I made them for her. I have enjoyed eating raw dough since I was a little girl. I used to snatch as much dough as I could when my mum used to make apple pie. Then I would beg … Continue reading →
