Cranberry, Hemp Seed & Carob Flapjack
If you love chocolate, something you may not have heard of or tried before is CAROB. It’s a slightly different taste to cacao and cocoa – I personally think it tastes sweeter, creamier and less bitter – and unlike cocoa powder and chocolate, carob is caffeine-free plus it contains three times as much calcium and is higher in dietary fibre. […]
REVIEW: Gluten-free afternoon tea at The Midland
It’s nice to treat yourself sometimes, whether that’s getting your nails or hair done, a spot of shopping, having a bath, simply reading a book or indulging in some delicious and exquisite edible delights. The latter was what I enjoyed recently, thanks to being invited down to The Midland, “a much-loved part of this magnificent […]
REVIEW: Lunching at Wahaca
Who doesn’t love Mexican food? I think it’s fair to say it’s my favourite cuisine (closely followed by Italian) – the flavours, spices, key ingredients, ways of serving – plus of course, the culture and aesthetics surrounding it. It wasn’t until I met James 7 years ago that I got into it (he’s a Mexican […]

Everyone loves a recipe you can chuck into a bowl, mix up and bang in the oven – something that looks and tastes delicious and wonderful, without having to take up too much time, while also being secretly being a bit good for you (that’s always a bonus!). The thing with this loaf is that […]
Peanut Butter Fuel On The Go
Hands up if you’re a peanut butter lover? We certainly are over here and it’s pretty much a fact that we have about 4 jars of the stuff (at least) in the cupboards at all times. One of the key ingredients in many of my recipes, James, Thomas and I love adding it to things, […]
Toffee Popcorn Caramel Tarts
“It’s a first in the UK. It’s innovative. It’s delicious. It’s different from everything you’ve seen before.” What am I talking about? Popcorn Shed’s Mini Pop, popcorn made from an ancient grain of white corn, which pops into tiny pieces that are about half the size the regularly popcorn – still as tasty but smaller […]

Matcha Cherry Cheesecake Pots
In the summer months I love creating light, delicious desserts that don’t take ages to make and and can simply be whizzed up, thrown together and left in the fridge. Which is where this easy recipes comes in, which couples matcha and cherry to create a vibrant combination of colours, while silken tofu is the […]

Strawberry, Kiwi & Lime Smoothie Bowl
Who doesn’t love a colourful, vibrant and health-packed smoothie bowl? To start the day, as a snack or dessert, it’s one of my favourite ways to get the fruit and veggies in (yes, sometimes I throw in celery, cucumber or spinach!), in an interesting and aesthetically pleasing way. Working again with the wonderful Mr Fitzpatrick’s […]
