Mini Champagne Pistachio + Raspberry Cakes
It’s amazing how much fun you can have with people you’ve known for literally barely more than 24 hours, just because they’re the right people, in the right place, at the right time. All brought together because of the love they have for two people. And a good party. And an incredible buffet dessert bar… Point is, if there's Champagne in the icing, you know it's a party.
Mini Mint Orange + Olive Oil Bundts
When asked to prepare a small feast of bite-sized eats for my God Sister's pre-wedding Pool Party... excitement, nerves, fear, pressure, thrill. All felt in equal measures. But as the baking (and food-photo shoot...) came to a close, and the guests got their hands on the first mini bundt cakes, watching their faces, their head nods, their satisfied smiles, it warmed me to the bone and was the perfect reminder as to why, from the bottom of my heart, I love and need to make food for the people I love.
Lemony Spelt + Chive Blossom Risotto
There is something about cooking with something you've grown, or rather, what your Granny grew and gifted to you... I also believe in happy coincidences, which is why when I glimpsed Matt Inwood's Lemon and Chive Blossom risotto on Instagram, and later that day conveniently discovered that my Granny was in fact growing her very own Chive Blossoms, I literally, had to.
