An all time classic, since I can remember. My mother used to make marble cake for almost every Sunday when I was a child. That is why I want to share this recipe. Every food-blogger is posting about the most fancy recipes they cook but I think, it is important to remember once in a […]

A (almost) Gluten free Advocaat cake
This cake I made a few days ago more or less unavoidably because I had an Advocaat in my fridge. This intro may sound strange. But if I tell you that I don’t like Advocaat at all you’ll understand. The first time I got an Advocaat as a present from some friends a few years […]
Coconut Cake
I love these small chocolate bars with coconut flakes and covered with dark chocolate. They are my absolute favorite. That is why I was thinking to make a cake similar to these bars. I love the taste of coconut very much so I wanted to make this cake as much tasting of it as possible, […]
Marble Cake with Olive Oil and Yogurt
Yesterday I decided to make a marble cake for the weekend. I had everything at home – except butter! So I searched the net to find an idea how to replace butter by olive oil. I found several recipes but non of it would really find my approval. But, at least, it gave me the […]

Homemade Bitter Orange Marmalade
My father used to travel a lot during his working life. That is when we learned about Bitter Orange Marmalade and it became one of my favorite bread spread for breakfast. As not native English you first have to learn the difference between marmalade and jam as for the rest of the world marmalade is […]

The celebration starts in the night from Holy Saturday to Easter Sunday by bringing the Holy Light home from church as a symbol of the Holy Spirit. There are also a lot of traditional foods on Easter like lamb, grilled slowly from early […]
Black and White Pudding
When you think about white pudding your mind would go for sure immediately to vanilla pudding. But did you ever try to make it with white chocolate? Well, try it out and you will never ever make vanilla pudding again! Usually I do not like white chocolate. But since I tried out this recipe I […]
Tiramisu without egg
I just found one last Mascapone cup in my fridge and I thought: “Let’s make a Tiramisu” for dessert!” It is one of our favorite Italian desserts, but to be honest, I do not like the fact that uncooked eggs are used in the original recipe. If the egg is not absolutely fresh, you know […]
