So guys…Today is my birthday! And to celebrate, I’ve been a bit self indulgent and made myself a cake that basically involves all of my favourite things: Chocolate. Peanut Butter. Cookie Dough. Caramel. I mean, who wouldn’t like this combo?! It sounds rich and indulgent which it is, that’s the point, but I’ve actually made […]

Tropical No Bake Muesli Bars
A super easy recipe using only SIX ingredients, these healthy bars are bursting with natural energy and tropical vibes. Thanks to a delivery from Dorset Cereals in celebration of the launch of their new gluten-free muesli range (hooray!), I thought I’d incorporate one of them into a simple recipe that all the family can enjoy. […]
Video: Banana Chocolate Chip Muffins
Welcome to my first recipe video thanks to collaborating with my friend, the talented Tori of Candid Films. I’ve always wanted to create video content but it’s something I’ve never had the confidence, patience or time to delve into (to be totally honest!) so I’m super happy to work with a professional who has a […]
Chocolate Hazelnut Cookie Dough Bites
So here we have a nutty, oaty chocolate base, a high protein cookie dough layer smothered in a rich dark chocolate topping with crunchy hazelnuts and cacao nibs. The dream right?! These little indulgent bites are huge in flavour and a certain to satisfy a sweet tooth and chocolate cravings. You might look at the […]
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 […]
Vegan Chocolate Raspberry Loaf
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 […]
Chocolate, Cherry & Almond Tart
You may or may not be aware that Spanish Picota cherry season is upon us! And if you’re like me and LOVE juicy, slightly sweet but also slightly tart, firm but soft cherries, then I hope you’ll appreciate this [sponsored] post. Distinguished by their flavour and sweetness, Picota cherries are unique to the Jerte Valley […]
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 […]
Double Chocolate Granola Loaf
A soft chocolate sponge topped with a fudgey, rich chocolate layer finished off with a nutty, crunchy granola topping = what dreams are made of. Honestly one of my favourite bakes to date, you wouldn’t guess that this dream snack / dessert / treat is actually made up of pretty good ingredients – dates, sweet […]
Raspberry, Chocolate & Almond Butter Bites
Another beautifully layered stack of goodness – this time made from an oaty base, chia raspberry jam middle topped with an almond butter chocolate layer – decorated with Gato & Co‘s Almond & Raspberry Cookies! Vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and no refined sugar – just like the recipe – they make a delicious and colourful addition […]
Blueberry & Banana Breakfast Cookies
I’ve only really started experimenting more with healthy cookie recipes recently and with these ones, I think I’ve nailed the soft and chewy combo with a slight crunch. Packed with energy-boosting ingredients that are all good for you, they are so easy to whip up and would make a great snack or breakfast on the […]
Chocolate Cookie Tarts
If you’re looking for some easy, delicious and no bake desserts to make this summer, you need these in your life! You may have heard of Gato who make plant-powered treats that are vegan, gluten-free, dairy-free and low in sugar, they’ve recently launched a range of cookies so I thought why not include them in […]

If you’re looking for a dessert that looks and tastes fabulous, to suit different dietary requirements, this is the one for you. An oaty nutty base is topped with a thick coconut cream, finished off with a layer of a fruity blackcurrant compote, spiked with Mr Fitzpatrick’s Blackcurrant cordial for even more intensity of flavour.
