Hope everyone is having an enjoyable Easter :)
Sorry, I should have posted up a recipe prior to Easter but I only made this on a whim on Good Friday, but there’s still time ^^” Raspberry and rose spongecake with cream cheese frosting and raspberries in the middle layer. There’s nothing to it actually; it’s all about the presentation and it’s easy to assemble!
Bunnies in a garden :)
All you need:
- Spongecake (make your own or store bought)
- Ladyfingers for the fence (or substitute using Kit Kats, Pocky etc)
- Frosting (you could easily whip some cream to frost the cake and also acts as a glue for the fence and grass)
- Dessicated coconut with green food colour for the grass (I use pandan essence)
- Ribbon (optional)
- Chocolate bunnies and Easter eggs to decorate
Happy Easter!
Also made some cheesecake Easter eggs (adapted from Raspberri Cupcakes) cheesecake flavoured whipped cream (stumbled across this randomly: whipped cream, Greek yoghurt, icing sugar) and lemon curd yolks.
Happy Valentine’s Day! ♥
Whether you’re in a loving relationship or sexy & single, u r 1 in a minion :D
If you still haven’t got a gift sorted, make these super duper easy and delicious Chocolate Strawberry Cubes ^^
Have a great day xx
Picnic basket from Kitchenware Direct
If you’re spending your Valentine’s with someone you love, make this Valentine’s Day special by organising a romantic picnic! Even if you’re single, grab a few friends and throw a fun picnic as well :) Here are some of Sydney’s best picnic spots: Timeout and Concrete Playground.
For the longest time I have wanted my own picnic basket and I was fortunate enough to have Kitchenware Direct send this 4-person picnic basket to review. You can be sure to see this picnic basket be featured in future posts ^^” I was quite surprised that it was so light to carry and sturdy too considering I packed a lot of food. The bottom compartment was deep and well-insulated with a zip-top to keep it secure. What I loved was that it came with a matching brightly coloured picnic mat that also had a plastic bottom so it could be used on damp grass as well. Whilst this particular picnic basket is no longer available on the site, the Satara Lindeman is a great alternative!
Picnic feast ^^
What we packed: Bacon & vegetable quiche (will post up a recipe soon), Cobb salad, Garlic & parmesan bread, Alaskan king crab & creme fraiche pate, Triple creamy brie w/ truffle honey & quince paste, Waterthins, Grissini breadsticks, Champagne, Home-made rhubarb & berry sparkling cordial, Young coconut, and Chocolate strawberries
When preparing the food for the picnic, I got a bit carried away and prepared way too much food for the boy & I ^^” we could have fed 4-5 people easily! Luckily I brought containers along with me to pack up the left-overs.
Merry Christmas everyone! 
I know I’ve been sort of sporadically MIA from my blog lately but this whole month has been a complete whirlwind of events. I really should have posted this ‘recipe’ much earlier but it got swamped in between the numerous Christmas parties (either hosted or attended), work, and a spontaneous trip to Cairns with a group of friends :)
Anyway, believe it or not, this recipe/idea came to me in a dream o_o how bizarre right? I made these for a Christmas party I hosted recently for 20+ friends and packaged them up for guests as take-home gifts. The grown up ‘lolly bag’ haha. I bought the food-safe clear bags from Daiso for $2.80, regular sized candy canes, and cheated by buying Betty Crocker’s rainbow brownie mix (the ones with the mini m&m’s). Turned out surprisingly well!
