These oat and cranberry biscuits are probably the healthiest treats on the blog — and suitable for many with dietary restrictions. They’re made without flour, eggs, milk or refined sugar, and contain only a minimal amount of fat. With a festive twist from dried cranberries

These redcurrant cupcakes are not only delicious but also irresistibly pretty — made with seasonal fruit and finished with a beautifully tangy redcurrant glaze. They’re perfect for picnics, garden parties and summer gatherings. The glaze not only

I absolutely love tangy desserts — the sharper, the better! And these lemon and rhubarb muffins are exactly that kind of treat. Sweet yet pleasantly tart, filled with plenty of rhubarb and finished with a crisp sugar topping. They’re wonderfully soft, rise beautifully

Roasted plum ice cream — full of juice, deep fruity flavour and a beautiful pastel hue. For that lovely pinkish-purple colour, it’s best to use plums with dark red flesh (though any variety will work, just with a different shade). This is a Philadelphia-style ice cream

Waffles — but make them luxurious! This elegant waffle “cake” is a fun and unusual way to serve a classic favourite. Whether it turns out more like a cake or a gateau depends on the size of your waffle maker. I used a smaller one to create a more delicate, refined look.

A beautifully soft and fluffy yeast cake, filled with curd cheese filling and juicy cranberries, shaped into an elegant braid. It smells incredible while baking, tastes even better, and simply melts in your mouth. If you prefer, you can swap the icing for a classic crumble

Another take on the iconic “burnt” and ultra-creamy Basque cheesecake — this time enriched with tahini. This halva-inspired version is baked at a high temperature, just like the classic, giving it that signature deeply caramelised top with a slightly toffee-like flavour.

French pain d’épices is a traditional spiced loaf, similar to gingerbread but sweetened with honey and flavoured with warming spices such as ginger and aniseed. Originally, it was a type of sourdough bread that matured over several months, as honey fermented with rye flour.

Another white chocolate cheesecake for the collection — because if not here, then where? ;). This time, I didn’t quite follow Yotam Ottolenghi’s original proportions and reduced the amount of white chocolate. Even for me, 600 g in one relatively small

It’s hot, humid, and stormy — the kind of weather where even the ice cream maker gets a day off. These simple ice lollies are made with the flesh of ripe, juicy peaches and a touch of Greek yoghurt. Lightly sweetened and wonderfully refreshing. Because of the high fruit

Have you ever tried currant ice cream? If so, you’ll know just how special it is. These tart, juicy berries are the perfect match for a classic homemade ice cream base. The soft pastel colour, the burst of fruitiness and that refreshing flavour — for me, it’s the taste of summer.

Mexican buñuelos are a beloved sweet treat, shaped like thin, crispy discs and traditionally enjoyed during the festive season and throughout Carnival. In flavour, they’re closest to Polish faworki (angel wings), but their texture is uniquely crisp and beautifully blistered.

Mazariner are decadent Swedish tartlets made with a buttery shortcrust pastry, filled with a delicate almond mixture and finished with a tangy lemon icing. Traditionally baked in oval moulds, though a standard muffin tin works perfectly well. The pastry is wonderfully crisp

“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

Mini Easter cheesecakes topped with chocolate ganache and Cadbury Creme Eggs. These iconic little eggs are incredibly popular across the UK during Easter. While undeniably very sweet, they have a loyal fan base! They make a charming decoration for Easter

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

An absolutely delightful cheesecake topped with rhubarb mousse, whipped cream and pistachios. The rhubarb layer is, of course, a treat for true fans of this wonderful vegetable. By using only the red parts of the stalks, we achieve a soft, blush-pink, almost candy-like colour that looks

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
