Can you believe that summer is nearly over? Gone is the heatwave we enjoyed for three months and instead we’re thinking about going back to school/work, digging the boats and coats out and welcoming autumn with pumpkin lattes at the ready. I don’t know about you but the change in weather and seasons really affects […]

Peach, Blueberry & Almond Cake
Nature’s Finest Foods kindly sent me a selection of their fruit pots which are ideal if you’re on the go, want to add cooked fruit to recipes, or give to little ones to nibble on – Thomas loves the peach slices especially as they are soft on his teeth. I’ve been a fan of these […]

Chocolate Mousse & Freeze-Dried Berry Tarts

So when the opportunity came up to work with Lio-Liocious, a European freeze-drying company specialising […]
Baby-Friendly Banana Bread & Butter Pudding
The other day I was thinking of what I could make Tom for a dessert that was easy and simple to make and uses ingredients we’d most likely have in. He absolutely loves bread and and bananas then I realised – BREAD AND BUTTER PUDDING! I’ve always thought of it as a strange pudding to […]
Cardamom Coconut Rice Pudding & Stewed Plums
Ahh the great big sugar debate. It’s been a part of our diet for hundreds of years and remains a staple of our everyday lives but has come under so much scrutiny that it’s become the F word of the food industry. From being linked to obesity and diabetes and blamed for a dental decay […]
