I had some tart dough in the freezer, leftover from when I made the mini vanilla and meringue tarts, and some apricots in the fridge, so I thought I’d make a rustic apricot tart. I also wanted to make *le husband happy, so I “threw” some vanilla cream into the mix. 😁 […]
The other day, while looking through my kitchen cupboards, I realized I had small amounts of several ingredients left: 6 dates, half a bag of puffed quinoa, a handful of coconut flakes from another recipe, and some freeze-dried raspberries that I wanted to use before they lost their crunch. That’s […]
The other day, a friend pointed out that there were not many sour cherry recipes on the blog. Since sour cherries are my absolute favorite fruit, I had to admit she was right. 😁 That’s how these mini sour cherry tarts with vanilla pastry cream and Italian meringue came to […]
I rarely make ice cream, so I even managed to surprise myself this time by choosing a chocolate-free version! 🫣 As I’ve mentioned in previous posts, my main goal this year is increasing my daily protein intake. That’s why I decided to whip up a high-protein cottage cheese ice cream […]
Recently, an exotic fruit shop opened in our neighborhood, and I quickly became a regular. After my first visit, I knew my wallet was in trouble 🫣, but my taste buds were so happy (my scale, on the other hand, started looking at me funny 😅). Everything I’ve tried from […]
Since we’ve officially stepped into 2026 with fresh energy, I’ve set a resolution that satisfies both my fitness progress and my cravings: adding more protein to my daily diet. You already know I can’t live without my little sweet moments throughout the day (yes, plural, because let’s be honest, it’s a multiple-times-a-day […]
I don’t know about you, but I always get that inevitable post-meal sweet craving. It’s like my lunch or dinner isn’t truly complete without a little moment of indulgence 😋. While I always strive for a balanced, healthy lifestyle, let’s be real… I don’t always have the most macro-friendly or wholesome […]
Every year, when fall comes around, I try a new pumpkin recipe 🎃. It is a tradition I want to keep, because I love finding new ways to use pumpkin and bring out its natural flavor. This time, I started with my cinnamon rolls recipe and adapted it to include […]
This morning I woke up with a clear mission💡: to create the best white chocolate raspberry brownie recipe. If you are a true chocolate addict, you know that a perfect brownie needs to be dense and moist on the inside (fudgy), have a shiny crinkle crust on top, and be […]
The first time I made this White Chocolate Ganache Swiss Roll, we were invited to friends’ house for dinner. And, of course, showing up empty-handed was never an option. 😄 The night before, I started thinking about a dessert that would look impressive without keeping me in the kitchen for hours. […]
During our trip to Thailand last November, I received a bag of Thai tea from “Georgei” 😂 (George & Jay), along with many other goodies. I have to admit, I only drink tea when I’m sick – otherwise, I’m firmly on Team Coffee. But they mentioned that this particular tea […]
I discovered blondies quite recently and I have to admit that the first thing that caught my attention was their name. I wasn’t really convinced that a dessert without chocolate could be interesting enough for me, but after a few searches, I discovered that blondies are actually incredibly versatile and […]
