“It’s amazing what you can see when you just sit quietly and look.” ― Jacqueline Kelly. I know the title of this post holds a tall promise to keep , I am hoping these brownies will do justice to it. I think so atleast. While it’s getting easier to find good vegan recipes , particularly …

Nutella cake
“My mind says Victoria’s Secret model, my heart says Nutella.” A while back, there was a sale on Nutella in the supermarket I frequent and I stocked up on it as if it was going out of production. I thought I would use it up in no time because if you have seen my blog …
Mango and coconut yoghurt fool
“Fool me once , shame on you. Fool me twice , shame on me.” A fool is an English dessert , which is classically made with stewed fruit and some whipped cream. In my mind it is a slightly more upscale version of fruit with cream ? Many variations on the fool exist , the …
Cookies and cream cake

Caramelised banana and coconut cake
“Never stress the could haves. If it should have, it would have.” I like baking with bananas and while I have seen several recipes involving caramelised bananas , I stayed away for two reasons : 1.

Eggless blueberry muffins
“Sometimes it does seem as if the more one gets the more one wants” ― Little Women I like to crib about things I’d love to use in my bakes but don’t really find easily where I live. Like passionfruit and lavender and elderflower and rhubarb … and berries. Fresh blueberries, raspberries and blackberries are slim pickings …
