One good thing about this 'little CV-19 problem' is that I'm actually doing a lot of things I 'haven't had time for'. And now I'm wondering what on earth stopped me before? I think travel time is definitely a culprit! When you're not going anywhere you really save...

I have fallen in love with Dutch process cocoa powder. It makes eating chocolate, without actually eating chocolate possible, and that is a good thing. As such, it was the perfect addition to my Chocolate Chia Pudding recipe, that unsurprisingly contains no...

Sugar-free Apple Crumble

by Xanthe Grundy | Jun 13, 2016 | RECIPES | 0 Comments

Truth be told I'm a simple girl with simple tastes. You can keep your French macarons and fancy foams and fluff. I'm happiest with my chocolate self-saucing pud and dollop of cream. And I can't say no to a fruit dessert - I'll take caramelised pineapple over creme...
