Dessert Recipes

Our Red Velvet Cake is a hybrid recipe taking its inspiration from several versions of this classic southern dessert cake that I’ve tried over the years.

Blueberry Lime Cheesecake. A delicious flavour combination in a creamy, indulgent cheesecake with a little something deliciously different about the crust.

Baked Hand Pies with Roasted Strawberry Jam. Easy to make, handheld pies for summer picnics and celebrations… or just because! A delicious use of summer strawberries at their peak.

Peanut Butter Banana Chocolate Chip Cake. One of our very best recipes to use that never ending supply of over ripe bananas on your kitchen counter.

Blueberry Turnovers. A pre-cooked blueberry pie filling and a forgiving sweet butter pastry recipe make these turnovers practically foolproof.

Orange Strawberry Pavlova Shortcake. A sort of trifle version of a pavlova that’s combination of 2 great desserts. Ideal for feeding a crowd.

Cinnamon Roll Couronne. It’s much easier than you may think to achieve this beautiful presentation of cinnamon rolls in a showstopper centrepiece “crown” for your brunch table.

Spanish Cream. An old family recipe much like panna cotta or blancmange but more mousse like in texture. Serve with whipped cream & berries or in a trifle, especially when using angel food cake.

Too Tall Neapolitan Cake. Light vanilla cake, filled with layers of strawberry compote & custard, then covered in luscious chocolate buttercream frosting.

Old Fashioned Apple Upside Down Cake. A decades old family recipe that uses very simple ingredients to create a comfort food dessert that everyone will love; a classic Autumn dessert that’s only improved by a big scoop of vanilla ice cream.
