In an attempt to connect more with my Instagram followers, I am making a conscious effort to put my own face on more of my posts, as opposed to just food and kids! So here I am with the most sumptuous pieces of deliciousness – chocolate orange coconut bites. They’re a bit like Rice…

Superfood Chocolate Bark
I’d like to say I followed the rule of moderation with this but I’ll go ahead and blame it on pregnancy and confess that I made this at 7am and by the time it had set I had eaten about a quarter! Oops! It’s just so delicious, and after all, I am trying to increase…
Chocolate Rice Krispie Donuts
Firstly, please excuse the poor quality picture. My camera has broken so this was taken on my phone. But anyway, who cares, because they taste so good and you’re still going to make them, right?! I had a half-eaten box of Rude Health Brown Rice Puffs in the cupboard and wanted to use them, and…
Ultimate Healthy Hot Chocolate
For me there is nothing, and I mean NOTHING, more satisfying than a hot chocolate in the winter. Even more so when I’m on my period. I believe that part of the reason we crave comfort foods and cosiness when we’re on our periods is because it is a way for us to care for…
Chocolate Truffle Hearts
There is nothing inside these chocolates that makes them ‘truffles’ necessarily, it’s just that the mixture is so decadent that when it sets thickly – as it does in the heart-shapes moulds I have because they’re so deep – it honestly tastes and feels like Belgian chocolate truffles melting into your mouth, and yet totally…
Rose Pistachio Chocolate Bark
There is nothing more satisfying than taking a bite out of a chunk of chocolate, and indeed nothing more satisfying at all than knowing that that chocolate is made of only pure, natural, healthy ingredients than not only are not detrimental to your health, but are in fact beneficial to your health. I usually make…
Bounty Bars – The Healthy Way
My mum always makes coconut pyramids for Passover which are yummy but of course they use sugar so I thought I’d whip these beauties up as an alternative Passover (and any other time) treat. They are gluten free, dairy free, sugar free, egg free and vegan. Ingredients 2 cups desiccated coconut ¼ cup ground almonds…
Cacao & Cashew Oaty Bites
I may even go as far as to say that these are the tastiest things I’ve ever made… I have to be honest, I wasn’t sure if it would even work but oh dear lord they do! So simple; literally took 5 minutes, 1 spoon, 1 saucepan and a cup, and to make it even…
Nutty Brownies with White Chocolate Topping
I needed something indulgent for my birthday this week and what is more indulgent than a chocolate brownie with a white chocolate topping? I had never actually used raw cacao butter as a topping and I didn’t know how it would solidify on top of a brownie but I gave it a go and was…
Maca-Chilli and Lemongrass-Wheatgrass Chocolates
The mayans believed that cacao was the drink of the gods, and with good reason! Raw cacao is high in magnesium and all the B vitamins; it promotes cardiovascular health and aids digestion; it is high in anti-oxidants, neutralising free radicals in the body and thereby preventing cancer. Cacao also promotes mental well-being due to containing…
