This coconut and passion fruit cake is full of light, tropical flavours that truly deserve your attention :). The cake is beautifully fragrant with passion fruit, only lightly coconutty in flavour, and wonderfully quick and easy to prepare. There is no creaming involved

A delicate and delicious butter cake with rhubarb and cinnamon, made with buttermilk. The buttermilk gives it incredible lightness and character, while the rhubarb adds its distinctive tart flavour. To me, buttermilk cakes feel slightly old-fashioned in the best possible way
An absolutely irresistible orange cake. Wonderfully moist, beautifully soft and delicious, while staying fresh for days. I decided to add stalks of pink rhubarb to it — and it turned out to be a perfect match! The flavours of orange and rhubarb complement each other beautifully
A seasonal almond cake with rhubarb and a delicate hint of orange. Despite the batter giving no indication before baking, the cake turns out wonderfully soft and tender (it contains only a small amount of flour, with most of the structure coming from ground almonds).
Soft, moist, and wonderfully rich — and above all… chocolatey :). This chocolate apple cake is simple to make, yet packed with flavor: chocolate, apples, almonds, rum, and cinnamon — it simply had to taste amazing! After the first bite, we all agreed that we absolutely

A classic sponge cake with pastry cream and strawberries — simple, timeless and always delicious! Yesterday, someone commented on Facebook: “I’ve been looking for a sponge cake with cream and strawberries recipe on your blog.” Honestly, it was almost embarrassing
One of those bakes you start making in spring and keep returning to until late autumn — simply swapping the fruit depending on the season. It’s wonderfully tasty and very delicate (best served with a spatula, as it can crumble easily). Not overly sweet, either.
A true classic — apple crumble is essentially a delicious apple pie-style filling with raisins, topped with a buttery crumble. It’s best served warm, although it has its fans when cold too ;). A simple, quick dessert packed with apples — perfect for sharing and ideal for
For those who don’t own a traditional bundt tin but still want to bake something special for Easter — this cake is just the thing. In fact, it’s so light and delicate that it wouldn’t hold its shape well in a classic bundt mould anyway. It tastes absolutely divine — truly irresistible
A quick, autumnal pear cake with the addition of hazelnuts and chocolate. Personally, next time I’d skip the chocolate and simply enjoy the delicate nutty sponge infused with the aroma of pears ;). This pear, hazelnut and chocolate cake is very quick to make if you have a food processor

A simple rhubarb traybake on a shortcrust base. It’s quite low, which means there’s not a lot of cake… and somehow it disappears from the tin before you know it :). Delicious, refreshing and moreish with every bite. I used pink forced rhubarb, but you can absolutely use
