Rhubarb and strawberry crumble is probably the simplest dessert on earth. In its simplicity there is the love and comfort that only homemade food can give us. It’s a great way to welcome the British summer and you can use any fruit you like.

A very British carrot cake
Discover the best of the best carrot cake with a few top secret ingredients. This recipe is inspired by the incredible carrot cake of GAIL’s bakery. I made a couple of substitution and used way less butter so you can more easily make the cake at home.
Coconut Chocolate Cake
This is the birthday cake my mum always used to bake for me: moist, chocolaty perfection. Patiently melt dark chocolate, fold in desiccated coconut, pour the batter into your cake tin, watch it rise in the oven, and cut a slice of flaky fluffy cake. Pure bliss and childhood memories.
Bakewell Tart
A case of delicate almond pastry filled with bright strawberry jam and soothing frangipane cream – the queen of all creams if you ask me. Follow the recipe carefully and have fun decorating the cake with almond flakes. You’ll be so proud when you’ll bite into the first slice: this cake is pure bliss. Perfect for tea or as a dessert.
Mug Carrot Cake
I love carrot cake and I’ve found a quick and easy way to make it with oats in just one mug. I mainly eat it for breakfast, but I wouldn’t complain to have it as an afternoon treat.
Avocado chocolate mousse
Avocado, banana, and cocoa: this odd combination surprisingly works! In just a couple of minutes, you’ll have a satisfying, smooth and rich chocolate mousse, a dessert to end dinner or a sweet treat for any time of the day.
