Celebrating Each Day with Good Food
This Flourless Chocolate Black Pepper Cake is the perfect fancy dessert for special occasions or if you are in dire need of a chocolate fix. Flourless chocolate cakes are deceptively effortless and rich. It comes out of the oven with a crackly meringue layer that slowly falls into multiple chocolate fissures hiding the fudgy interior. […]
I have to say I’m not the biggest fan of vanilla. Don’t get me wrong. Vanilla is great with its intoxicating scent and recognizable black specks. But despite vanilla’s best efforts, it has always been butchered throughout my life. It’s sad to say that fake vanilla is more commonplace than the real deal bean. I’ve […]
Back again with one of my favorite food combos ever: chocolate and peanut butter. Even better that the filling comes in the form of a luscious velvety ganache.

It’s finally the weekend so we can all sit back and take a deep breath. As a person who always goes full steam ahead, I appreciate these little breaks.

Hi there! I have to be honest with you and say gingerbread has a bad rep for me. The only gingerbread cookies I’ve tried have been all dry, crumbly and pasty. The type that tends to stick to the roof of your mouth. Not exactly a joy to eat. So I decided to make my […]
The holidays are upon us! Although, this year will definitely be unique from our past celebrations. It will be still be a time of thanksgiving, joy and well…celebration. I think after everything that has happened this year we all need a bit of festivity and lightheartedness. And I’m starting with cake. After all, “a party […]
