Silky smooth and creamy, our version of Melktert is made with custard spiced with nutmeg and cardamom.

We made our own shortcrust pastry, but if […]

Passionfruit Panna Cotta with Sesame Biscuits (Vegan)
One of our favourite Niki Webster’s recipe is Coconut & Mango Panna Cotta with Tahini Biscuits (you can find the recipe in her highly-recommended cookbook Rebel Recipes). We can’t take any credit for this recipe, but what we did do was swap Mango for Passionfruit, and it was wonderful! Sour, tropical flavours of silky smooth […]
Vegan Rye Chocolate Chip Cookies
Who doesn’t like Chocolate Chip Cookies? We made ours with dairy-free butter and dark chocolate chips to make them suitable for Vegans, but they taste just as good as the ones made with real butter. We also substituted the usual white wheat flour with medium rye for the deeper earthier flavour! So if you’re after […]
Brandy Snaps with Earl Grey Infused Cream
Brandy Snaps are lacy thin sweet biscuit-type treats traditionally filled with whipped cream, oddly with no brandy in them. We have taken our Brandy Snaps a step further by filling them with an aromatic Earl Grey infused cream. Caramelised crunchy biscuits with a fragrant creamy filling are some of the most addictive treats we’ve made […]
