Ahhh, the Cubano, AKA the Cuban Sandwich, AKA the Cuban mix, AKA the Mixto, AKA the Medianoche. Medianoche is easily the coolest of all the names, not only because it rolls off the tongue so pleasantly, but because it’s…
It’s Halloween! Full disclosure: we don’t really have Halloween in Australia. It’s a very new thing for us, and only in recent years has the insistent desire of teenagers to dress up and get drunk finally brought the holiday…
Scone time! Scones are so underrated. They are the hard-worker of the pastry world. They’ll carry any flavour, you can knock them up in no time, they’re pretty hard to screw up, and when they’re fresh and warm out…
It was only a matter of time before we got to the Poutine. Why now? Because I totally missed Canadian thanksgiving! And I love all my Canadian homies. In fact, I would like some more Canadian homies. I feel…
It’s time for another Sunday Snack Attack sponsored by Healtheries! The inspiration word for this post was Nibbles, because I get the nibbles all the time, you guys. Because of my work, I am constantly taking little bites of…
Are you tired of having to choose between brownies and cinnamon buns? Because I sure as heck was…until today. Indecisive pastry-choosers rejoice! For the agony of our indecision is over! I give you, the Pecan Brownie Bun! Yup,…
Have I ever told you how much I love to eat apples at breakfast? There’s something about that combination of sweet and tart that I really love first thing in the morning. I love that they can be comforting,…
If you are a fan of mozzarella sticks, prepare to have your life changed. Because these are to Mozzarella sticks, what a Harley Davidson is to a tricycle. There just is no comparison. Here’s the lowdown: thick, creamy…
I don’t know if you’ve noticed, but the internet’s oat cookie game is STRONG right now. I feel like I’ve had awesome looking oat cookies flying at me from every angle. Honestly? I liked it. The first little…
It’s Wednesday. By my reckoning, Wednesday evening is definitely a cause for celebration because it’s all downhill from here! The weekend’s a-coming, and there ain’t nothing that can stop it If you, like me, feel that Wednesday is…
This burger is juicy, saucy, savoury, tangy, sweet, and messy. The sauce will get all over your hands, and probably your shirt. But it’s definitely worth the risk, because of the intense, perfectly balanced harmony of this gorgeous mess….
Welcome to Sunday Snack Attack! A short series I will be running for the next few weeks as part of a sponsored challenge by Healtheries & Kidspot! Along with a box of Healtheries snacks, I’ve been given a bunch…
Put salted caramel into a donut! Do it now, do it today! There is no time to waste before you get this into you face. I’m sorry if that half-rhymed and sounded kinda Dr Seuss-y, but I feel…
I got my first ass-kicking over a recipe today! You remember my Swedish Dream Cake? Turns out that it’s actually a Danish Dream Cake. Not Swedish at all. I thought it was Swedish, because I heard about the recipe…
OK, it’s time to get out your fanciest pair of fat-pants. Because this cake is so fancy, and yet so trashed up, you may feel some confusion. You’re going to want to cut yourself an obscenely giant slice, but…
I’m 85% certain that if Izy Hossack and I did not live in opposite hemispheres, we would be coffee pals. You know those people, who you just catch up with for a coffee and laugh about stupid jokes for…
Do you need a recipe for a bacon sandwich? Probably not. OK then, consider this a reminder for a bacon sandwich. It’s so fantastic the way people are aware of their health right now. People are eating consciously,…
We’re in very delicious territory here, friends. I absolutely love Tarte Tatin. Give me apple, peach, apricot, pineapple, anything and I will happily cook it in caramel, top it with pastry and then bake it. But my new…
Sweden! Hands up if you’re as obsessed with Scandinavia as I am? Anyone? In Scandi countries, they have this thing called a ‘cake table’. And it is basically the afternoon tea of my dreams. You invite all your…
Vietnamese iced coffee is lush. It’s rich, ice cold, sweet and strong. Just like I like my men? No, that joke sucks, forget it. Instead, turn your attention to this drink. This iced coffee has changed my home…
It was my birthday yesterday, as I’m sure you all probably know (I wasn’t exactly subtle about it), and I had such an awesome day. I had lunch with my sister, dinner with my mum and dad and breakfast…
