A delicious strawberry sauce for ice cream, waffles, pancakes… and many other treats :). During strawberry season, it’s worth keeping a jar ready in the fridge to serve at any moment. It’s quick to make, absolutely delicious, and perfectly enhances homemade desserts.
Spring yeast buns :). Soft, fluffy sweet rolls with a lemon filling and a creamy frosting made with cream cheese and honey. The idea for the honey frosting came from one of the readers of Moje Wypieki. The whole preparation process is simple and probably

Strawberry ice cream with vanilla — simply the best classic version, made with egg yolks for a rich, creamy texture. These are the most delicious ice creams to make with the first strawberries of the season — truly a wonderful recipe!
I really wanted to make these with rhubarb — but, as luck would have it, I couldn’t find any in the local shops (most of them were closed because of the Royal Wedding!). Luckily, I had some overripe bananas at home — and they turned out to be a perfect substitute.
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
