Tiramisu for the boys.
Or girls who like beer… stout in particular. I have just made the Lamington Tiramisu for Australia Day last month which I absolutely enjoyed, not to mention it is dead easy to make. When they announced this month’s Daring Bakers Challenge, and you’ve guessed it, is Tiramisu again! I was actually half [...]

January 28, 2010 Australian
Thumbnail image for Lamington Tiramisu for Australia Day

Lamington – “Those bloody poofy woolly biscuits”.
That’s how the Governor of Queensland from 1896 to 1901, Charles Cochrane-Baillie, 2nd Baron Lamington, described this iconic Australian dessert.

The Nanaimo city so proud of this confectionery chocolate squares, they even have a page fully dedicated to the Namaimo Bar on their official website. [...]

Somewhere over the rainbow… is a fork.
The Talented ChocolateSuze made a rainbow cake shaped of a fork for a lady who likes to “grab your fork“. Why? Because is Helen’s birthday. It is always a good time to hang out with a group of best friends for some cooking debauchery. Minh, Yas, Helen, Simon and [...]

Thumbnail image for Chocolate cake with olive oil and fleur de sel

The cake sounds horrible in English, but if I put it in French…
Gateau au chocolat à la fleur de sel et huile d’olive.
The cake definitely sounds so much sexier in French, don’t you think? In short, just as the title says, it is a chocolate cake with olive oil and sea salt (fleur de [...]

I love my eggs Sunny Side Up, so as my dessert!
I’ve been told that I am a person who is difficult to find a birthday present for. I detest! I sure no prima donna, and “Oh, you already have everythinggg…” kind of accusation is absolutely unacceptable! And I also think birthday present doesn’t always have [...]
