Could this cake look any more delicious? I can promise you it tastes as good as it looks! I’m not always the best with perfect looking cakes but I think I did ok on this one! I used my Working Woman’s Chocolate Orange Cake base recipe (always a winner and so easy) and just added…

Vegan Marble Cake
I was hosting some friends for tea and fancied something different to banana bread alongside some brownies. I took a bit of a risk with this as I wasn’t too sure how it would turn out but it turned out really beautifully. Moist and delicious and looks great! It’s free from gluten, dairy, refined sugar…
How To Make A Chocolate Construction Birthday Cake
We celebrated Braxton’s 3rd birthday this weekend – a week early as my due date is on his birthday (what timing!). We weren’t even sure we’d make it to 39 weeks as things seemed to be moving but I’m really glad that we did, for Braxton’s sake, so that he could have a special day…
Gluten Free Lemon Blueberry Cake
Does anything say summer dessert more than lemons and blueberries? I just love how they work so well together. I have to be honest, this cake took a good few attempts as the first few were pretty dry. Anyone who is familiar with my blog knows how much I HATE test recipes that go wrong…
Banana Oat Loaf
I really didn’t know what to call this. I attempted to make a loaf that was like banana bread but more oaty, made from breakfast porridge oats, and add apple and cinnamon flavours to it. It still tastes like banana bread, just different. But amazing! I am not even exaggerating when I tell you it…
Vegan Victoria Sponge – GF, DF, SF
Firstly, apologies that this isn’t the world’s best picture (does anyone really care!?) I took it on the day of Braxton’s 2nd birthday party – which this was made for – and had to cater the entire party and somehow look presentable, oh, and photograph everything at the same time because I run a health…
Double Decker Banana Cake
It has taken a while, but I have definitely perfected my banana cake recipe (it’s slightly different to my banana bread) although I seriously underestimate my amazing new oven and every recipe seems to need 5 minutes less than in my old oven so the sides are very slightly overdone. I wanted to make this…
Orange, Cardamom & Fig Cake
I have been making a gluten / dairy / refined sugar-free chocolate orange cake for years and it’s a favourite of my husband and his family. It’s the dessert they request from me most often. I’ve recently discovered my love for cardamom in cakes and I thought, what tastes go better together than orange and…
The Best (Healthy!) Lemon Drizzle Cake
Both of us love lemon drizzle cake. There’s nothing better than that sweet, moistness with a slight crisp to the coating – it’s a British staple! But the traditional recipes all require the usual unhealthy ingredients that we like to stay away from: flour, sugar, butter etc. So Raine and I put our heads together…
Nutella Cake with Banana Caramel Frosting
I needed to bring a cake to a dinner party that was gluten free – for a gluten free person, dairy free – for a kosher person, sugar free – for a diabetic and egg free, but of course I still wanted it to be yummy! Here is what I came up with… And I…
