Honey Roasted Nectarine & Cardamom Karpatka
I didn’t think my love for this polish dessert could get any bigger, but you add in honey roasted nectarines and a fragrant cardamom diplomat cream and it might just be my idea of heaven.
Pistachio & Strawberry Footie Choux Buns
Get football ready with these fun footie-themed choux buns filled with a pistachio cream and fruity strawberry compote.
Brown Sugar, Coffee, Chocolate Custard Tart
There’s something so satisfying and pleasing about a clean slice of custard tart. This tart looks simple but packs in a lot of technique and flavour. None of the flavours overpower each other in this, they just dance along together in harmony encased in a silky custard.
Strawberry Jam Cornflake Pie
Flaky pastry, fruity strawberry jam, sweet sugary cornflakes and a soft whipped cream. A slice that tastes like a big bowl of fruity cereal and milk. She’s fancy with her frilly piping but still a wholesome and humble pie. I made this in my extra deep 9-inch pie dish because I wanted her to be T-H-I-C-K. She’s exactly what I envisioned. And my big fat slice of pie craving has well and truly been satisfied.
Rhubarb & Lemon Mascarpone Cream Choux Buns
I’m not a big believer of Valentines day so it’s quite a chill affair in my house. I do, however, believe in spreading love with food. So these sweet lemony cream choux buns with their punchy rhubarb compote nestled inside are just that. My little love buns.
Hazelnut Frangipane Mince Pies
I think these may become a yearly bake for me. Golden, crisp, flaky pastry with nutty hazelnuts and a punchy, perfectly spiced mince meat. Let’s not forget the obligatory sprinkling of little crunchy demerara sugar too.
