RASPBERRY ROSE ICE CREAM
I went to a gala and they were serving raspberry rose gelato. It was amazing and of course the first thing that came to my mind was that I have to make this at home. I used my quick no-churn ice cream base and added […]

SUGAR-FREE STRAWBERRY JAM
I love jams with berries. Whenever I’m in the grocery store I see all these wonderful jams made with fresh berries. Then I turn the jar over and see how much sugar is in it and put it back. One of my favourite snacks is […]
PUMPKIN GINGER SPICE ICE BOX CAKE
My cousin hosted Thanksgiving this year so my only task was to make dessert. Instead of doing some sort of pie, I wanted to try something different. Pumpkin is the preferred flavour for desserts this time of year, so I made an icebox cake. It’s […]
TOASTED MARSHMALLOW ICE CREAM
The first time I had toasted marshmallow ice cream was from Gregg’s in Toronto. It instantly became my favourite ice cream. I made this quick no-churn recipe and it is the best toasted marshmallow ice cream I’ve had. It’s smooth and creamy. The texture is […]
CHAI SPICED GRANOLA BARS
To me, granola bars are the perfect snack. They carry well, are sweet and tasty, and you can make a batch of them and they last for two weeks in the fridge. I always have one in my bag, and I keep a container of […]
ALMOND ICE CREAM
I don’t know what it is about ice creams. When I see a new flavour in the store I get excited and must buy it. I saw almond kulfi which I have had in the past and love. It’s an Indian style ice cream flavoured […]
ORANGE ALMOND CAKE
I’m always looking for low-carb snacks and this cake it great for that mid afternoon treat or tea time. Since there is no flour in this, the key to getting it to rise are the egg whites. I use apple cider vinegar to stabilise them […]
VANILLA ALMOND COOKIES
These cookies were a happy mistake. I had made them before with just egg whites and they were hard. This time when I went to separate the egg whites I dropped and whole egg in the bowl and just went with it. The result was […]
LEMON SEMIFREDDO
My love of ice cream has now found a low carb version, and a new obsession. When I made this semifreddo, meaning semi-frozen it tasted great. It was sweet, like I had used sugar, tart from the lemons, and creamy. I’ve always said if I […]
EASTER PIE
For Easter, I was responsible for bringing dessert. I wanted to make something that felt like an Easter dessert without it being overly sweet. The result was phyllo pastry layered with orange scented ricotta, honey, rum soaked raisins, almonds, and soaked in a honey vanilla […]
