A delicious, gently orange-flavoured cheesecake topped with persimmon mousse and pomegranate. This persimmon cheesecake is the first recipe using this fruit on Moje Wypieki! Persimmons are in season now and aren’t particularly expensive, so let’s make the most of them.
Matcha latte cookies are a real treat for matcha lovers, although they may also pleasantly surprise those who aren’t particularly fond of its flavour. They are based on my recipe for tiramisu cookies. These delicate green, soft cookies have a distinct yet pleasantly
The world has gone crazy for number cakes. And it’s easy to see why – they’re a refreshing change from traditional sponge and meringue cakes, and make a wonderful gift for an anniversary, birthday, Valentine’s Day or practically any occasion. They can be baked in the shape of numbers
Last year I started a series of Easter egg-shaped mazurkas (eggnog and blackcurrant, chocolate “day and night” and coconut and raspberry). This year I’d like to continue the series of modern mazurkas in the same format. I’ll start with a classic – a dulce de leche
Old-fashioned Swedish pralines called dammsugare (“vacuum cleaners”), which in appearance resemble Polish bajaderki. They are made using leftover cakes or biscuits, so perhaps the name comes from the idea of “cleaning out” the cupboards ;). Or maybe it comes
Divine, moreish, fluffy and utterly addictive. You could fall in love with it after the very first bite. A delicious chocolate mousse cake with Nutella, finished with a glossy milk chocolate mirror glaze. Try it and you’ll be hooked. My suggestion for Valentine’s Day!
A blueberry mousse cheesecake made with frozen blueberries, although you should definitely use fresh ones when they’re in season. I’m currently working my way through last summer’s stash from the freezer ;). I’ve used slightly different proportions here compared to
I have a soft spot for chocolate bakes made with farmer’s cheese, so today I’m sharing yet another version of chocolate muffins with a cheesecake filling. Izaura muffins are intensely chocolatey muffins with a vanilla cheese filling, topped with chocolate glaze. They’re
During the fruit season, I make Pavlova with all kinds of fruit. In summer, it’s easy to save up enough egg whites for a meringue cake – all you need to do is make proper homemade ice cream using egg yolks. This weekend I made a Pavlova with coffee cream and strawberries.
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

An incredibly creamy strawberry layer cake. It has everything you love: vanilla custard, stracciatella cream, strawberries and desiccated coconut. An added bonus is that it requires no baking, which is especially welcome during hot weather :).
Sweet, delicately coffee-flavoured cupcakes topped with a cloud of creamy frosting and a dusting of cocoa. Cupcakes that look just like little cups of cappuccino :). Light, delicate and delicious.
Chocolate cake squares made with a moist cocoa sponge and an easy chocolate cream. This small celebration-style cake is decorated with a swirl of whipped cream and cherry preserve. I soaked the chocolate cake with port mixed with boiled water, but you could use
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!
Love dulce de leche and want to incorporate it into doughnuts? Nothing could be simpler ;). These indulgent banoffee doughnuts are filled with dulce de leche, bananas and whipped cream, inspired by the famous British dessert, banoffee pie. Once fried and cooled,
Craquelin choux buns are currently one of the trendiest versions of choux pastry. Craquelin is a type of crumble made from butter, sugar and flour. Before baking, discs of the crisp dough are placed on top of the raw choux pastry. This creates wonderfully crunchy, irresistibly sweet
A no-bake white chocolate cheesecake which, thanks to the right amount of white chocolate, does not require any gelatine. Left in the fridge overnight, it sets to the perfect consistency. It becomes firm in the fridge, but when removed, it becomes wonderfully soft
