After Christmas, I just couldn´t make myself to bake. When I finally found the time and inspiration, I wanted to make something small and easy. Profiteroles with Chantilly Cream are just perfect bite-sized sweets – mini creams puffs filled with vanilla whipped cream. Profiteroles are a type of puff pastry dessert, small cream puffs filled with cream. They could be called…

Christmas and Christmas cookies are inevitably over, so it’s time for a new recipe. After all the cookies I wanted something creamy, fruity and chocolatey. I found some sour cherries in the pantry and got the idea for a four-layer tart. Sour Cherry Mascarpone Chocolate Tart combines everything one could want – cocoa tart shell, a jelly sour cherry layer,…

Who could resist a pumpkin spice latte? Since it can only be bought at this time of year, it might just be even more delicious. I took the latte as my inspiration and created fall Pumpkin Spice Cupcakes. They consist of fluffy pumpkin sponge cake batter, delicious mascarpone cream and whipped cream icing, and of course, cinnamon on top can’t…

October is here before I know it, and, besides traditional apples and pumpkins, of course I need to use up pears as well. I’m posting the pear cake recipe a little late again this year, but hopefully you’ll still find those four pears in a garden. While scrolling on social media, I came across a photo of a pear cake…

I’m always excited when it’s finally blueberry season. The ones from the store, the Canadian blueberries, can never give such a beautiful color to a dessert like the wild blueberries do. With wild blueberries, every dessert is a work of art. I decided to incorporate them into a cheesecake with which you don´t have to turn on the oven. No-bake…

Who wouldn’t know a classic in the shape of a mole cake. For those who haven´t heard about it, it is a traditional German cake, in the shape of a molehill, made with cocoa sponge cake batter, tasty bananas and lots of whipped cream. It’s simply a homemade classic that you can´t find in cake shops with fake whipped cream.…

I found some time for a blog again after a long hiatus and since it’s the season, I made something with fresh cherries. I wanted to create something creamy, with a cake batter and a milky flavor. I took a milk-slice as a model, but I wanted to make it fresh and summery. Black Forest Cake Sandwich Bars are such…

Summer is slowly approaching, and in addition to seasonal summer fruits, coconut could also be considered a summer flavor. A great deal of coconut with a bit of chocolate, similar to a bounty bar, was the initial idea for this No-bake Coconut Bounty Cheesecake. I made the crust with cocoa-coconut cookies, so you’ll find that combination here as well.…

The approaching Easter and the coming spring in general can’t be without some carrot cake. This time I incorporated the carrots into the normal cake, not the sheet cake. Such a cake looks more festive and is also suitable for an Easter table. Carrot Cake with Mascarpone Filling consists of a fluffy carrot cake and soft filling with mascarpone and…

I found some cream cheese in a fridge that needed to be used up, so I wanted something really cream cheese-like. I make a light creamy filling, added a good dose of chocolate and Brownie Cream Cheese Cake was born. It consists of a brownie bottom, a creamy cream cheese filling and dark chocolate ganache. Brownie batter is already such…

I still have a brownies series this week. Who wouldn´t love them since they are quick and full of chocolate? And, for me, chocolate combined with coconut is just delicious. However, it must be well-balanced sweet, unsweetened combination. Brownies with Coconut Mousse are just such a combination. A great deal of sweet chocolate and a soft, fluffy mousse with a tropical…

I had lots of plums this year, but by the time I got to make a cake and post it on the blog, I was running low on them. Hopefully you still have some left on a tree and you can make Plum and Vanilla Custard Tart with them. The combination of plums and vanilla isn’t that common, but that’s…

The red berries are slowly ripening, but not fast enough for me to make a cake with just one kind. Therefore, I figured I’d mix the remaining strawberries and ripening raspberries and red currants. I was in the mood for something colorful, chocolatey yet fruity and soft. Brownie Red Berry Vanilla Torte has it all. It contains three colorful layers,…

This year, although a bit late, it´s already a strawberry season for me. I combined them, unconventionally, with another seasonal product, namely elderflower syrup. Since I already have elderflowers in my garden, it would be a shame not to use them. The combination of sweet elderflower syrup and fresh strawberries is perfectly suited to this time of year. Strawberry Elderflower…

A basic vanilla cheesecake should be part of every kitchen/cookbook. I have my favorite basic cheesecake and use it quite often. I had the idea to combine the subtle vanilla flavor with the coffee flavor, that’s how Vanilla Cheesecake with Espresso Mousse was created. The vanilla baked cheesecake is incredibly creamy and full of vanilla. It’s not dry like basic…

Who wouldn’t love pistachios? I’ve been meaning to make a pistachio cheesecake for a while and when I found pistachio paste, I didn’t think twice. The one I used isn’t a “paste” in the traditional sense, as it’s not that thick, but rather it has thinner, yogurt-like consistency (I used a paste from Fun Cakes, in case anyone would like…

The recipe where you can use half a can of coconut milk was added to the blog before Easter. Since the other half needs to be used up somewhere too, I made Coconut Tangerine Torte. It is a cake made with a coconut cake batter and coconut tangerine filling. The cake batter is a variation of the traditional sponge…

Easter is around the corner and I was in the mood for some “festive” cake. In the end, I made Speckled Easter Egg Vanilla White Chocolate Cake. It consists of a soft vanilla cake, white chocolate, mascarpone and heavy cream filling and is decorated with Easter eggs. Even though it is a cake, it really isn’t complicated as all the cake…
