Mmm jelly slice, it’s the perfect summer dessert. My Mother makes a mean jelly slice filled with an extreme amount of creamy condensed milk, sugary jelly & crushed biscuits… mmm so much goodness. :/ Don’t get me wrong, it tastes amazing, but may I say that mine is just as good and includes a lot more of the good stuff too. For those of you who are wondering – yes,…

Each year my family makes a variety of Christmas desserts that are usually devoured within 48 hours of completion; this includes a very famous marshmallow log & chocolate hedgehog Christmas tree. Inspired by both, I created a clean Christmas Hedgehog Slice that would be devoured just as quickly as the sugary kind, and it was a big success! Guilt free thick chocolate mixed with almonds and walnuts for a biscuit…

Oh gosh, I have already made 2 batches of these brownies in two days. I am warning you – these are extremely addictive! It was a chilly day in Melbourne when I created this recipe, and I wanted to indulge in something warm, chocolaty and gooey, and success! There is nothing sweeter than taking the first bite into the soft brownie centre filled with chunks of baked banana and chocolate as…

Ah, summer fruits, how I have missed you so. Although I am very aware that I am not in the presence of the sunny season in Melbourne just yet, I wanted to create something fruity and delicious to serve after a hearty BBQ or a treat to enjoy while laying in the sun. These Strawberry & Vanilla Slices have a moist, spongy texture enhanced by the smooth strawberry cream. Sweetened by my favourite ingredient, rice…

I know what you’re thinking; what is Baobab cream? Firstly, Baobab is an African super food that has recently launched in Australia by the awesome people at Rawsome Foods. I was shocked when I learnt that Baobab has DOUBLE the antioxidants of Acai Berry and DOUBLE the calcium of milk. Needless to say, I was more than intrigued to taste this super food and it definitely did not disappoint with…

I made this gorgeous Chocolate & Blueberry Love Cake for my best friend’s 23rd birthday. As we are both entering the second week of the Kayla Itsines challenge (which we are both absolutely loving and highly recommend) I thought it was only suitable to bake something special for the occasion without breaking our healthy diet. This cake is moist, sweet and full of chocolaty goodness. I also made this batter…

Oh goodness. Life has unfortunately taken over these past few weeks so I apologise for my lack of yummy recipes, however my newest creation will make up for it! There’s really no better team than chocolate & peanut butter. One of my favourite all time recipes is Chocolate & Peanut Butter Bars (in the ‘Recipes’ page) so to combine lush chocolate mousse over a delicious peanut butter base is quite…

These images were quite a struggle to take. Firstly, I made 2 batches of these mint chocolate cookie dough balls and they disappeared in record time before I had a chance to style them beautifully for the blog. Once my sister and my friend and I got our hands on these, it was safe to say we weren’t going to stop until not even one was left visible on the…

There’s always an excuse for cake. But one with chia seeds, banana and walnuts? Well gee, you could just eat it whole and call it a day. With great nutritional benefits, there’s nothing to feel guilty about when consuming this moist loaf. Combined with the natural sweetness from bananas, the team of flavours work wonderfully together with crunchy chia seeds mixed through the batter for the ideal ‘banana bread’ substitution….
