White Raffaello truffles made with sweetened condensed milk, without butter or milk powder. They’re wonderfully rich and filling. They’re not quite like the shop-bought Raffaello chocolates, which are more delicate, coated in a crisp wafer and filled with
A delicate, silky no-bake coconut cheesecake with a milk chocolate topping, inspired by the flavour of a Bounty bar :). This no-bake Bounty cheesecake is simply delicious! It’s hard to imagine a creamier, lighter no-bake cheesecake. The coconut flavour comes from
Lemon meringues are classic white meringues sandwiched together with a delicious lemon cream. They are definitely my favourite meringues from now on :). They are less sweet and more refreshing than traditional meringues, thanks to the addition of lemon juice and the

Absolutely delicious! A shortcrust pastry topped with the lightest, most wonderful vanilla foam – a filling I had never made quite this way before. It’s even lighter than marshmallow, and the raspberries (or blackberries, blueberries or bilberries) nestled inside
Sweet, buttery and crisp cookies decorated with edible pansies. The pansies are blooming so beautifully in the garden that it would be a shame not to use them ;). The flowers are not baked, as they would lose their colour. Instead, they are attached to the cookies after baking.
This yoghurt cake with rhubarb and raspberries is absolutely delicious! The yoghurt cream is inspired by the sour cream filling from my recent strawberry cake. Combined with roasted rhubarb, raspberries (frozen work perfectly out of season) and plenty of

A cake that still smells of summer… And it does not even matter if you think you do not like desiccated coconut — here, even coconut sceptics will enjoy it. The recipe author herself, Nigella Lawson, calls it a “Bounty cake”, which should already be recommendation enough :).
A delicate cheesecake with fruit and jelly — light, airy and incredibly delicious. This version is made with homogenised cheese. From time to time you ask whether this type of cheese can be used in baked cheesecakes, and I usually would not recommend it; here,
“Strawberry Field” is a beautiful spring cake featuring a strawberry mousse layered over a light spinach sponge. It’s a delicate, unique dessert that’s sure to impress. The sponge (not a classic one, as it contains oil) is made with spinach — but don’t expect the
The name “Snowy Fluff” perfectly reflects both the look and the taste of this dessert – I can absolutely vouch for that :). This no-bake cheesecake is made with curd cheese, jelly and whipped cream, topped with toasted coconut flakes. It’s not overly sweet, wonderfully
This no-bake “3 BIT” cake is so popular it hardly needs an introduction ;). I was asked for the recipe by a friend of a friend — in fact, an English lady who buys this cake in a Polish shop here in the UK. As you can see, it’s loved across different cultures! As Joey Tribbiani would say:
