A truly irresistible banana tart. Bananas paired with homemade vanilla custard, whipped cream and salted caramel sauce, all on a perfectly crisp shortcrust pastry base. Pure heaven! Loved by both adults and children.

Brownie with salted caramel and pecans is loved even by those who don’t usually enjoy very chocolatey cakes… I know, it sounds surprising, but salted caramel and nuts are incredibly persuasive! A classic combination that never goes out of style ;).

A truly delicious cheesecake topped with chocolate coffee mousse. Perfect with a cup of coffee or for sharing on special occasions :).
Its refined flavour comes from freshly ground coffee (not instant) and a hint of almond liqueur. If you’re not a fan of coffee, simply

Many names, one dish. Pampuchy are simply soft, fluffy steamed yeast buns, traditionally served with sweet sauces and fruit, though they also work beautifully as a side to savoury dishes. Some sources say they can be filled with fruit, drizzled with butter and sprinkled with cinnamon

Peanut butter doughnuts are the trendiest doughnuts of the season ;). Soft, fluffy doughnuts filled with a creamy peanut butter filling. After frying, they’re coated in sugar, drizzled with chocolate and sprinkled with salted peanuts. Absolutely delicious!

A soft and quick Apple Swiss roll (especially easy if, like me, you use jarred apple filling) – and my children absolutely love it :). Perfect for a light afternoon treat or simply with a cup of coffee. Highly recommended!

A delicious, soft butter cake with bananas and cinnamon. Perfect for those moments when you’re wondering what to do with overripe bananas ;). Quick to make, and it tastes like a little escape to sunny Spain in the middle of winter…

Perfect chocolate cupcakes with salted caramel and popcorn. Honestly, it’s hard to resist at every stage of making them: licking the bowl with the batter, tasting the caramel, then the delicious frosting… Topped with popcorn (oh my!) and drizzled with extra caramel sauce.

For fans of strawberries and white chocolate. A quick no-bake strawberry cheesecake with white chocolate, made with either cream cheese or traditional curd cheese. The strawberry flavour isn’t overly sharp or fresh – instead, it reminds me more of creamy strawberry ice cream :).

Toffee Pavlova with cinnamon and figs. By using a mix of brown sugar and white sugar (half and half), the meringue takes on a beautiful toffee-like flavour :). This recipe caught my attention because of its unusual method – completely different from how I used to make Pavlova.

A light strawberry meringue cake with… no cream at all, so no added fat. We bake a sponge, layer it twice with strawberry filling (which soaks beautifully into the sponge), then finish the whole cake with meringue and flaked almonds. This strawberry and meringue

How often do you buy these kinds of cookies? If the answer is “a bit too often”, it’s definitely worth making them at home :). These jam cookies are absolutely delicious – buttery, crumbly and very easy to make. It’s really just a matter of mixing a few ingredients together.

Pistachio cheesecake is a truly original festive dessert. With pistachio paste, white chocolate and a delicate hint of rose… it’s simply stunning! I had never tried such a flavour combination before and wasn’t sure what to expect – it was a bit of an experiment ;).

A moist rhubarb and orange cake soaked with a fragrant fruit syrup. The well-known “Rhubarb Triangle” in Yorkshire is famous for its pink forced rhubarb, available from January to April. It’s the last chance to enjoy it before outdoor-grown rhubarb takes over.

A vibrant green smoothie made with kale, pear and pineapple :). This flavour combination was suggested by one of my readers – and it works beautifully! A perfect boost of energy to start your day or enjoy as a light afternoon pick-me-up.

Panna cotta has never been so refreshing or so full of flavour :). It’s all thanks to the passion fruit pulp, which is strained and added directly to the dessert – the taste is incredible! The chilled panna cotta is served on slices of ripe mango and…

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

A popcorn cheesecake that goes straight to the heart and delights the senses ;). A vanilla cheesecake (intentionally not too tall), topped with a layer of salted caramel and crunchy popcorn. It tastes absolutely incredible and looks just as impressive. It doesn’t sink
