I wouldn’t be myself if I hadn’t baked this cake ;). It had been on my mind for quite some time. I have to admit, though, that it isn’t to everyone’s taste – the opinions online were rather mixed – so perhaps that’s why I kept putting off making it. Now I know it was definitely
Florentine orange cheesecake is a wonderfully impressive no-bake orange cheesecake that’s as delicious as it is beautiful. The creamy cheesecake filling is made with traditional Polish curd cheese, although you can easily use mascarpone or Philadelphia instead.
If you’re looking for a truly special poppy seed cake, you simply must try this one with meringue :). A quick and easy shortcrust base is topped with a moist, fruit-and-nut-filled poppy seed layer, all finished with a generous layer of meringue
Poppy seed and coconut layer cake is a wonderful layered poppy seed cake that could be the star of this year’s Christmas table! Layers of poppy seed and coconut sponge are sandwiched with a delicate, lightly lemony custard buttercream and generously soaked.
Prune in Chocolate cheesecake combines an intensely chocolatey cheesecake filling with rum-soaked prunes, bringing to mind delicious chocolate truffles. The whole thing is so rich and melt-in-the-mouth that it’s hard to imagine making it any more indulgent…
A serious rival to the German lebkuchen (which you love!). This time, I’m inviting you to try Nuremberg lebkuchen – different from the ones you already know, also known as Elisenlebkuchen. The tradition of baking them dates back to the 14th century.
Christmas ginger cookies are perfect for winter, when you’re craving something warm and comforting… Crisp on the outside and slightly chewy in the centre, they crack as they bake, giving them a lovely rustic character. They fill the kitchen with the wonderful
Biscotti are traditional Italian biscuits that are baked twice. Dry, though less so than Polish rusks, and sweet, they can be wonderfully varied in flavour. They’re perfect with coffee or a glass of wine, and their ability to keep for a long time is, apart from their delicious taste, one
I can never resist coming back to the flavours of almonds, Amaretto and marzipan… I baked this almond Amaretto cheesecake out of a longing for that delicious almond flavour – a longing that has stayed with me since the festive season. It’s an unusual cheesecake
The best chocolate fruit loaf. This chocolate loaf with prunes and walnuts is dense and substantial, deeply chocolatey and moist without being heavy or stodgy. Packed with plenty of prunes and walnuts, with a hint of orange, it is wonderfully soft. Could this be an alternative
Spiced biscuit cake with plum butter and cream is a festive no-bake dessert. The thin spiced layers are made from spiced biscuits (which are readily available in shops in the run-up to Christmas), layered with a cinnamon and almond liqueur cream and a double layer of plum butter.

This meringue truffle cake is like one giant chocolate truffle. Despite being made in a small tin, it makes a dessert for a crowd. It’s very rich and intensely, almost bittersweetly chocolatey. It’s ready to serve after just a few hours of chilling and, when well chilled
Beautiful stamped chocolate gingerbread cookies brushed with a thin layer of icing. The patterns are made using cookie stamps, but you can also use a decorative rolling pin. When they’re baking, the whole house smells wonderfully of chocolate… Once baked, they aren’t particularly
Honey gingerbread cookies sandwiched with chocolate are wonderfully aromatic and delicious. This time, instead of being coated in chocolate, they are sandwiched with a chocolate sauce (ganache). Merry Christmas!
Red Velvet crinkle cookies – perhaps a little Valentine’s Day inspiration? Beautiful cookies that look like cracked, brownish-red, snow-covered earth. And they taste delicious too :). Their colour makes them perfect for both the Christmas season and Valentine’s Day. They are less
An amazing cheesecake with a cranberry and orange sauce. Delicious, beautiful and yet so easy to make! With a chocolate biscuit base, good-quality curd cheese and the sweet-tart flavour of cranberry and orange sauce. Just how I like it :).
