Welcome to my kitchen.
Hailing from a long line of bakers, I’m at home in a messy kitchen with a spatula in hand. You can browse my culinary ventures below.
A white chocolate and raspberry layer cake
This white chocolate and raspberry layer cake forgoes a traditional mud cake in favour of a muffin base to allow for decadent fillings and frosting.
A Nutella brownie layer cake
Lathered in Nutella cream cheese frosting, my Nutella brownie layer cake isn't a traditional brownie nor birthday cake but a delicious amalgamation of the two.
A zesty lemon layer cake
This lemon layer cake has it all: tart, creamy lemon curd sandwiched between moist, airy lemon cake layers, smothered in lemon-flecked cream cheese frosting and topped with candied citrus slices.
A chocolate lover’s bundt cake
This double chocolate bundt cake holds its own under rivers of oozing caramel and a carefully curated selection of chocolate confectionary.
A hot weather policy no-bake blueberry cheesecake
This no-bake blueberry cheesecake ticks all the boxes: it doesn't require an oven, it can be made in advance, and it champions the simple, light flavours of vanilla and blueberry.
Amped-up double choc malt cookies
Swapping Horlick's for Ovaltine (and a happy accident) led to these amped up, indulgently chewy, double chocolate malt cookies in tribute to a timeless flavour combination.
A Valentine’s red velvet bundt cake
Forgoing passé hearts and indulgent lashings of chocolate ganache, this cake bucks the tired Valentine's day clichés in favour of freeze-dried raspberries, a smooth cream cheese icing, and delicate marriage of cocoa and vanilla.
A strawberry swirl shortcake
Classic, polished and a little bit fancy, this pink and white marbled shortcake is layered with decadent vanilla bean mascarpone frosting, and topped with fresh strawberries and dusting of icing sugar.
A chocolate lover’s birthday cake
The brief for this cake was overwhelmingly chocolatey and over-the-top indulgent. The result is a salted dark chocolate layer cake with caramel and Mars Bar filling, milk chocolate ganache, a KitKat fence and Maltesers on top. Decadent, right?
A giant ginger kiss with coffee cream filling
Light, fluffy, perfectly spiced, and needless to say a hit, this ginger sponge filled with coffee cream is an ode to my mum's beloved ginger kisses.
Coffee-infused french toast
Eschewing the staple white bread dunked in egg, this elevated french toast recipe calls for brioche, coffee, and crumble resulting in a breakfast that errs on the side of dessert.
Ritual-inspired brown butter and toffee chocolate chip cookies
These brown butter cookies are punctuated by Daim bars and dark chocolate melts resulting in perpetually soft pockets of chocolate alongside a crunchy nuttiness from the toffee.
No-bake gingerbread and white chocolate cheesecake
Originally written for Clique Mag, this no-bake gingerbread and white chocolate cheesecake is the ultimate addition to any festive dinner table this Christmas.
