Guys, it’s nearly spring. Therefore, you can expect some fruity desserts your way – and here’s the first – raw strawberry and chocolate cheesecake. It’s no secret chocolate goes with everything, from peanut butter (delicious) to oranges (yep!) the opportunities are endless. This recipe however, I’ve paired it with chocolate and the result is seriously delicious. The inspiration for this recipe came from This Rawsome Vegan Life who I’ve been…

It’s winter! Well, it’s felt like winter for way too long (it’s only been a month) but even with a summery Japan trip in between, there’s no denying the cold weather can get you and your stomach down. Am I the only one who becomes extra hungry during these chillier months? When I think of winter, I think of apple crumble. Warm. With lots of gooey chopped apple and a…

For those who follow me on Instagram, you’ll know that I recently had my wisdom teeth removed – which was so much fun (not). One positive from the experience was that I got to enjoy lots of frozen treats – and to stop myself from snacking on ice cream all day – I decided to make frozen yoghurt in three delicious flavours. Frozen yoghurt is something I eat all year round…

If there’s one thing I don’t mind about winter (I’m a summer girl at heart), it’s the decadent desserts that are made through the season; chocolate puddings, hot chocolates, apple pie with custard… the list goes on. So, as soon as the weather started to take a chillier turn, there was only one thing I felt like – apple crumble. But not just any apple crumble, a smaller, for-one apple crumble….

A few weeks ago my mum called me into the kitchen and said, “Jess, can you make a clean version of this?” It was a recipe video on Facebook by Tip Hero which wasn’t clean – but looked incredibly delicious. It was chocolate oat bars. I immediately said “yes, I will make this clean!” and I did (it’s a win win for everyone. My mum, my stomach… and most importantly,…

It’s that time of the year when the weather gets cooler (well, in Melbourne), the days get shorter and the chocolate shortage is non-existent; it’s Easter! A few years ago I created a hot cross buns recipe which I made religiously each year. So many of my readers have made this recipe which I’m so thankful for. This year however, I have decided to re-invent the hot cross bun and…

I have had such a busy weekend of baking and I am loving my newest creation, especially these clean coconut surprise cookies. So you’re probably wondering what exactly the ‘surprise’ is. Each of these delicious cookies has one square of 70% dark chocolate hidden inside. When you take them straight out of the oven and take a bite, gooey, melted chocolate will hit your lips with a lovely coconut…

It’s been a while since I made a cake and I know why… I somehow end up eating at least half of it! I was really craving something with orange and although I love orange cake, it’s no secret that chocolate is my TRUE love. So I combined the two to make a ridiculously delicious ‘jaffa’ cake (and who doesn’t love jaffas, right?) For those of you who don’t know,…

\ A long work day, perhaps a coffee or two, and then it hits the 3pm mark and you’re craving a sugar hit – you know the feeling right?! I do too. And I usually visit Hunter’s Roots for a sweet treat. This Melbourne cafe is only a short walk from my work and Kerry and the team KNOW how to bake – without any nasties. On one of my visits…

Over the weekend I was craving something chocolatey (surprise, surprise) and something with peanut butter (again, another surprise). After devouring a not-so-healthy brownie after dinner with the girls during the week – which was delicious – I wanted to recreate something similar. Sometimes I love eating unhealthy desserts to give me inspiration and that’s exactly what that brownie did… These peanut butter chocolate swirl brownies are the perfect treat when…
