It’s summer time and right now, the weather in the UK is HOTTTTT. As I’m sure many of you do, I love a sweet frozen treat to cool down – ice cream and ice lollies all the way! But if you’re looking for something a little healthier but equally delicious, these easy and gorgeous mini […]

Triple Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups
There’s no messing around with this recipe. One of THE most delicious, indulgent treats I’ve made – and they happen to be vegan-friendly, dairy-free and gluten-free so don’t worry about missing out! A simple chocolate oat case filling with a smooth peanut butter chocolate layer, smothered in a dark chocolate (yes, MORE chocolate!) topping…Need I […]
Chocolate Strawberry Tartlets
Who doesn’t love the strawberry and chocolate combination? One of the best – especially when it’s made into these delicious no-bake tarts! Inspired by summer and the wonderful weather we’ve been having, I whizzed these up with ingredients I had in my cupboard and some fresh strawberries we had growing in the garden. You could […]
Chocolate Berry Cheesecake
This delicious indulgent dessert is made from a rich chocolate ‘flapjack’ base which doubles as energy balls to decorate, and is topped with a creamy, high protein chocolate layer to complete this decadent treat. An easy no-bake recipe, this type of ‘cheesecake’ is one of my favourite things to whizz up and keep in the […]

When you want a quick, easy, healthy and of course, DELICIOUS dessert when it’s hot outside, this is the recipe for you. These bad boys don’t take long to prepare at all and you can make ahead so they’re ready to grab from the freezer when a sugar / cool-me-down craving hits. With a chocolate […]
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 […]
Berry, Chocolate & Vanilla Nice Cream Sundae
As a mum to a now one year old (how was that happened?!) I was thrilled to be approached by biscuit brand Bahlsen, who make gluten-free, lactose-free Zoo Imagination treats for little ones. Using high quality ingredients, they have actually mastered making a delicious biscuit you’d never guess is free from gluten, woohoo! And yes […]
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 […]
Kefir-Quark Crustless Cheesecakes
Always up for a blogger recipe challenge, I was recently approached by Bio-tiful Kefir-Quark to get involved in their latest campaign. The world’s first combination of bio-live Kefir and high-protein Quark, Bio-tiful Kefir-Quark combines two of the best and most nutritious dairy products, resulting in an abundant list of health benefits and a thick, creamy […]
Oppo Chia Pudding Smoothie Bowls 2 Ways
So the heatwave in the UK is STILL going strong (isn’t this what this season should be like anyway?) which means for many of us, we’re craving chilled or frozen foods to help keep us cool. Plus the thought of cooking or baking just goes straight out the window when it’s already like 30 degrees […]
Chocolate Strawberry Tartlets
Another month, another recipe for the fabulous British chocolate company, Montezuma’s! This time using their super moreish, vegan-friendly 58% Cocoa Dark Chocolate Giant Buttons, I thought I’d create something summery using one of my favourite fruits (and a perfect match with chocolate): STRAWBERRIES! These no-bake tartlets are really straight-forward to prepare and can be made […]
How To Be Happy & Healthy This Summer
I actually cannot believe how lucky we have been with the weather this summer in the UK; weeks of sunshine, blue skies and scorching temperatures. In fact, I’ve been pretty much living outside either in the garden or being outdoors and making the most of it! Alongside taking advantage of lots of vitamin D, I’ve […]
Berry & Granola Lollies
We’ve been so lucky here in the UK this summer, with endless days of sunshine, blue skies and high temperatures. It’s times like this when we crave things to help cool us down – cold showers, ice cold drinks, a bit of shade and of course, ICE LOLLIES AND ICE CREAM! There’s something so satisfying […]
Hot Mochachino & Vanilla Nice Cream Shake
Guys, this is pretty exciting: I’m working together with British chocolate company Montezuma’s as their regular guest contributor, woohoo! The first recipe uses their hot chocolate discs, which might sound unusual considering you’d perhaps associate hot chocolate with winter time, but this is actually a fantastic drink to whizz up when it’s hot and sunny; […]
