You won’t be disappointed though - this is a beautiful and unusual dessert. Read more

Peach and Ginger Crumble Cake or Dessert

This gorgeous concoction of juicy ripe peaches, soft vanilla sponge and buttery crumble is based on a recipe I found in one of those supermarket magazines.  It was a bit of a shot in the dark.  Using a very different flour and an adjusted ratio of ingredients, there seemed a fair possibility I might have to dispose of large wobbly disaster.  But I’m relieved and happy to announce this luxurious low carb version won the day. It really is a magnificent beast. Super-tasty too.  And perfect for a late Summer treat.

Berry Clafoutis
In France they know a thing or two about sexy delicious desserts.  And this lovely clafoutis is a prime example. 
I love this pud because it’s full to bursting with fruit and the batter is so light and creamy.  Served chilled it’s an ideal dessert for a Summer meal.  In the cooler months served straight from the oven, it’s a great comforter.  In any season, I recommend adding a little crème fraiche alongside. Read more
