I am an ice cream addict. This clearly isn’t news to anybody. I have an abundance of ice cream recipes on my blog and with good reason. Ice cream is the greatest dessert on earth. And I say this in the absolute most unbiased manner ever. Okay, I clearly can’t convince you of my unbias (spoiler alert I am biased) but maybe I can convince you of how…
The very first kind of ice cream I ever made was Vanilla Ice Cream. I remember the day as if it were yesterday. I finally bought myself an ice cream maker and vowed to begin the endeavor of creating artisanal ice cream. And let me tell you – it was magnificent. So magnificent that my family began to stop buying ice cream from the store altogether. They informed me…
I love ice cream – I have said this before and I’ll say it again. However, I especially love saffron ice cream. Whenever we would go to our local Persian restaurant, as a child my favourite part was the ice cream. Sadly, back in those days, the ice cream was rarely in stock. They’d have a local vendor make it but sometimes it was available…
Hold up! Don’t freak out by the word olive oil ice cream. Trust me when I say that olive oil ice cream is actually so incredibly tasty. Olive Oil Stracciatella Ice Cream, on the other hand, is a match made in heaven. The inspiration for this recipe came about a year ago. I went to a restaurant and had the tastiest olive oil ice cream sandwich. Naturally, I wanted…
This year has been an amazing year for my apple tree. In the past, my poor apple tree hardly yielded a harvest. I would perhaps have 5 or 6 solid tasting apples. The rest were far too tart and soft. However, this year has been fantastic. My apple tree sprung back with such vibrancy that I had to give apples away. There was only so…
Instead of searching for my recipes or scrolling through the entire blog (which to be fair is fun since there is so much to explore), you can browse my recipe index. Here you will find a list of everything I have baked (and subsequently ate). Don’t see a recipe on here you were looking for? Send me an email or DM me on Instagram, with some of…
I have made sticky toffee pudding for years. Ever since I had my first bite at a restaurant when I was young, this dessert has become one of my all-time favourites. The name is quite misleading though because sticky toffee pudding isn’t actually a pudding. Though the English may disagree! 😉 It is more like a muffin, or slice of cake! My sticky toffee pudding recipe is…
Karidopita (kah-REE-do-pita), also known as Greek Walnut Cake, is quite possibly the love of my life. I must warn you, however, that this cake is not for the faint-hearted. It is sweet and syrupy and extremely indulgent. However, if that is exactly the type of dessert you are after, then look no further. My first exposure to Greek walnut cake was in fact in Greece. On our way…
This flourless chocolate olive oil cake recipe is greatly inspired by Thalia Ho, author of the delicious food blog Butter and Brioche. Her recipe for a Flourless Chocolate Olive Oil Cake with a Citrus Coffee Cream envokes different flavour profiles that inspired me to experiment with ingredients that speak to me! A few Instagram posts sparked a deep desire for me to indulge in a sinfully rich and…
“Caminante, no hay camino” Born and raised in YYC , I am a lover of ice cream, romantic comedies and really good food. I also love traveling – but who doesn’t? My life has followed an unorthodox path since I graduated from university. I received my degree in Cultural Anthropology and Archaeology because I aspire to be the next Indiana Jones, so if you’re someone…
