Today was the VegMel Vegan Pot-Luck Picnic, to which I was invited by the lovely Steph from VeganAboutTown (who made some of my recipes! How cool is it when people actually make your recipes? And change them? And then you…

Recipe: Mildly Courageous Potatoes
(NB: still no idea what’s happening with shifting web-hosting, which is making me reluctant to post much here just now, in case I hit exactly the wrong window and it all gets deleted. Sorry. I had no idea it would…
Recipe: Roast Potatoes with No Photos (Because we ATE THEM ALL)
No, I didn’t eat the photos. I haven’t even eaten these potatoes all that recently, which is a tragedy, because they are possibly my favourite food in the world. And, actually, I probably do have photos of these potatoes somewhere,…
Recipe: Jasmine and Orange Blossom Cupcakes for Sensitive Souls
Another day, another fundraiser at work (and another cupcake recipe on this blog), and since I am now officially She Who Bakes Allergy-Friendly Foods, I had to come up with something gluten-free and vegan that my friends could eat… The…
Recipe: Pasilla Chilli Chocolate Cakes with Hot Chilli Ganache and Smokey Chilli Mousse (incredibly allergy-friendly)
These cupcakes are a bit of a shock to the system. I freely admit to being a chilli wimp, but even I thought the original pasilla chilli cupcakes were a bit too mild. So I decided to spice them up…

Another recipe from the wedding cakes I made for Rhiannon and Reed a few weeks ago! This one was designed, with the help of the lovely Emily, to be low-fructose and dairy-free, and was thus also gluten-free and, by chance,…
Recipe: Strawberry Mint Smoothie
Look, I’m not even sure if you need a recipe to make a smoothie, but this one has been on the menu at our place a lot recently, generally in lieu of breakfast, and I’m excited about it, because I’d…
Recipe: Oaty Chocolate Cranberry Biscuits
This recipe is a riff on my favourite choc-chip cookie recipe, with nods to Tessa Kiros’s recipe for choc-chip cranberry cookies and to the cranberry oatmeal cookie mix I get at the markets sometimes. (It works even better if you…
Recipe: Gluten-Free Flour Mixes (including self-raising)
I don’t know if this really counts as a recipe, exactly, but since I’ve been doing a fair bit of gluten-free and fructose-free baking recently, I thought I’d post a couple of my preferred gluten-free flour mixes. In all honesty,…
Recipe: Hummingbird Cupcakes
These are the hummingbird cupcakes I made for a recent wedding. By request of the bride, they contained tinned apricot, which is not something I’ve seen in hummingbird cake before, as well as nuts, which are a traditional part of…
