Crio Bru Pavlova Stack
I made this for my dear old dad’s birthday. I had been planning such a creation for while, ever since seeing a picture on Pinterest which I pinned (yes folks, yet another social networking thing I have become enamoured with!) So this is a bit of copy, but yet my own invention…Happy...
Christmas Stollen
I cannot believe it; I have blinked and Christmas 2011 is here! Phew, what a year…can I just recap?
Turned 50, but don’t tell anyone! I went to Phuket with the whole family (and that in itself is a story!)
Went to Dubai and worked with George Calombaris, as my alter ego Candy...
Pecan Dacquoise with Orange Chocolate Cream
Developed for the Celebrate and Bake cooking class menu, this is so delicious, that you will be making it again and again….and again! It is not difficult, but does take some planning. You should look at making it a few hours prior to serving as it improves...
Pistachio Marzipan Christmas Trees
Well there really is no need to keep mentioning it I fear…but if you like, bury your head in the sand and pretend it isn’t upon us again. Hopefully these may inspire you to get cracking and get your Christmas on! I love Christmas and I decorate like a mad woman,...
Crio Bru Ice Cream with Crio Beans
I am no award winning Azzura…believe me, but the thought of a rich chocolatey gelato on a hot day does things to me that just aren’t normal when discussing ice cream…or gelato as the case may be. Of course I have also been known to wax lyrical about another...
Almond Peach and Apricot Tart
You may have noticed…I have been putting up a lot of recipes based on the Dried Apricot Preserves. Its just that I am down to two kids at home and I have so much of the stuff, I need it out of the fridge…to make room for new future creations. No one is complaining...
Oh Yes, Orange Heaven Cheesecake...
We are not big on Halloween in Australia, and I personally don’t get into ‘spooky’ food, but I have always been big on Pumpkin Pie…something that pretty well fills my kids with suitable Halloween style horror. Vegetables? In dessert? But trust...
Salted Caramel Ice Cream
This is probably my fave ice cream recipe of all time…I don’t make it often, because it is not pretty to see me eat an entire tub of it in one sitting…seriously, I steer clear. It makes a beautiful textured ice cream, the flavour is amazing and I promise you, you cannot...
Lemon Meringue Parfait
I was going to put it in the book….really, but I simply have too many recipes. Does that sound great or what? I have TOO. MANY. RECIPES. for the book…which only means one thing. You guys get the left overs! This is so easy, and really all you have to do is a little forward...
Rich Crio Bru Brownies
I really have to rave on less and cook and eat more…but there is a price attached to that, so let me rave! These are so delish and moist that I could sell them internationally…really. If you don’t have Crio Bru yet (why not?) just use coffee, but no responsibility will...
Tenina Hmmn, liking the sound of a licorice all sort jelly…great idea....
Lilli Hmmmm, have just been searching for a licorice ice cream after a girlfriend has made ...
Tenina Thanks Megan…(she blushes…feeling a bit porky and not at all like the poster child fo...
Megan Oh T, so glad i tried this stuff, its tasty (i do add a sachel of Natvia) but i notic...
Always crazy about food since she fed the neighborhood kids that first mud pie, (seasoned with a good dash of vegemite, a childhood Aussie fave!!) she now has a tribe of her own that she happily feeds whenever she can get them to sit down long enough. Her culinary experience ranges from Bangers ‘N Mash in London long ago…(and far far away) to attempts at Chinese banquets for her University ‘roomies’ in the USA to more recent culinary holidays to Singapore and Vietnam and now several years as a food consultant, recipe developer/writer and food eater and dreamer. Obsession can be a wonderful thing!
Ever resourceful and always hungry, and now the proud owner of a Thermomix, she can whip up a delicious storm in minutes, given half a chance. It is on her blogs that she shares her passion for food and the perfect cooking of it!
Professionally she works to bring to two major Australian Appliance companies, the best use of said appliances in the form of recipes. Always up for a personal demonstration, plans are afoot for a cooking tour in 2009, so look out for a Thermomix class near you! She can now live without her microplane for the first time in a cooking lifetime, she still can’t live without her Thermomix and she certainly can’t live without her blog comments…so make her day and leave a note!
