For some unknown reason I had this recipe ready, with step-by-step pictures taken, but never published it here. Time to repair injustice and share another variation of the best dessert ever (cheesecake that is). The heat of ginger wonderfully sets-off the sweetness of the cheesecake. I’m dedicating this one to my sisters, both ginger-lovers. Continue reading
Chocolate Butterscotch Cake
Simply lovely. Bitter-sweet chocolate layer perfectly outlines the richness of mascarpone and caramel cream. Easy to make and a delight to indulge. Remains perfectly moist if stored in a sealed container. That is assuming you’ll have a few slices left to store, which is quite doubtful… Continue reading

Mars Bar Cheesecake
Joyful overload of happiness. I first had a slice of Mars Bar Cheesecake back in 2005 in The Rocks Cafe in Sydney. It was then that I knew how a TRUE dessert should taste like. For some reason it took me longer than it should have to recreate it in my kitchen. Continue reading
Cherry and Orange Roulade
