Peppermint Crisp was never been my favorite chocolate as a child. No, I was a Lunch Bar and Tex kind a girl. Peppermint Crisp in my opinion was a chocolate for the elderly. A chocolate I would buy my mom or my grandma! Then Peppermint Crisp tart became famous and I had to swallow my […]

Crumbed Calamari reminds me of my carefree years at varsity. Oh boy, in those days you were considered to be very adventurous when you ordered calamari! Crumbed calamari can be tricky to make though. If you over-cook it, the calamari is as tough as old shoes and the crumbs all end up at the bottom […]

Brioche, the ultimate French bread which was for so many years exclusively enjoyed by the rich and aristocracy.

Custard desserts are nothing new to us, there are so many of them…. think trifle, custard slices, pavlova with custard and those are just the simple ones. Custard also forms the base […]
