Cake

This Pavlova Roulade is crispy on the outside, marshmallow-light on the inside, and rolls into the most beautiful swirl. A tiny bit of technique, a touch of magic… and suddenly those forgotten egg whites become the star on the table.

Kataifi Cupcakes are where familiar comfort meets a little wanderlust. They bring the golden crispness of a classic Middle Eastern dessert into a modern, playful form—a bakery-style cupcake filled with cool, creamy goodness. This is the kind of dessert that feels festive without being overpowering: bold visuals, warm flavours, and a textural contrast that makes every bite unforgettable. Perfect for celebrations, gifting, or simply as an effortlessly impressive dessert on your holiday table.

If you’re looking for a stunning dessert this autumn, the Golden Caramel Apple Charlotte is it. This elegant, festive and irresistibly delicious cake combines soft spiced apples, a light Mascarpone cream and buttery ladyfingers tied together in a beautiful ribbon. Finished with a drizzle of homemade caramel and toasted hazelnuts, it’s the kind of centrepiece that transforms any gathering into a special occasion.

Golden, buttery oat layers meet a burst of citrusy cranberry filling — these Cranberry Walnut Oat Bars are everything I love about bright winter baking. Sweet, tangy, and lightly glazed with orange for a sparkling finish. Perfect with tea, or as a cheerful little treat on a grey day.

There are few pairings more timeless than figs, walnuts, and honey. In this cake, the jammy figs soften into the batter, the walnuts add texture, and honey brings warmth and fragrance—a combination that tastes like sunshine captured in a bite.

Inspired by the classic French clafoutis, this traybake is a perfect mix of custard and sponge, packed with fruit and incredibly easy to make. Think of it as a no-fuss summer dessert you can slice, pack for a picnic, or enjoy on the patio with a scoop of ice cream.

This Italian Sponge Cake—light and airy and naturally leavened—is just the kind of bake that showcases the seasonal flavours. Paired with a tangy lemon curd, it feels like sunshine with every bite.

There are times when a bake exceeds all expectations—and not because it’s extravagant or fussy, but because the flavours simply belong together. This Swiss roll was just that. Inspired by the warmth and richness of Dubai-style chocolate, I folded pistachios and tahini into a velvety cream, added a crunchy layer of kataifi, and wrapped everything in a soft cocoa sponge. The first bite? I was at a loss for words. Just that rare feeling of stillness when something tastes exactly the way it should. If you love texture, balance and elegant flavours, this is for you.

These golden kataifi tartlets filled with Mascarpone and apricots offer the perfect balance of crispy, creamy, and fresh— with just enough sweetness from a simple drizzle of honey.

There’s something about mango that instantly lifts a bake — the colour, the scent, the tropical sweetness. This Mango and Lemon Twisted Wreath is made with an easy enriched dough, filled with silky mango curd and a sprinkle of lemon zest sugar. Shaped into a twisted wreath, it becomes an eye-catching centrepiece for any table — yet it’s surprisingly beginner-friendly.
