Vegan Gluten-free French Fancies

Vegan Gluten-free French Fancies First of all I would like to wish my mum and all the amazing mothers out there a ?HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY? If you live in the UK you will be very familiar with french fancies. They're these cute mini sponge cakes, similar to petit four, with a jam centre and covered in different coloured icing - pink (strawberry), yellow (lemon) and brown (chocolate). I used to find the sponge in french fancies a little dry, which wasn't too bad since the jam and icing added a bit of moisture and complemented the whole thing, but I still prefer my cakes a little more moist, so I wanted to make mine a little denser and not as spongy.

Vegan & Gluten-free Jaffa Cakes

Vegan & Gluten-free Jaffa Cakes Jaffa cakes are one of those treats that I missed the most since I started avoiding dairy and gluten. Once a Jaffa Cake pack was opened, there was no stopping me. I would gobble the lot! They're such a comforting snack, especially with a nice warm cup of tea. What makes them even more special is that all Jaffa Cakes are produced at a McVitie's factory in Stockport, which is not too far away from where I live and around the corner from my parent's house!  I posted a shot of these vegan & gluten-free Jaffa Cakes on my Instagram feed mentioning that I wasn't sure whether they were only available and sold here in the UK. Many of you informed [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Banana Blueberry Bread – Video

Banana Blueberry Bread If I had to choose between a fluffy sponge cake and a dense, moist one, I would always choose the latter - especially if it's banana cake!  I've made a banana bread in the past where I used a mixture of banana and avocado in the dough and it turned out to be one of my most popular blog posts! So I thought it's about time I made another one, a more traditional version without the avocado, but with a little fun twist - a blueberry frosting! Because everyone knows banana and blueberries go exceedingly well together, especially in the form of a cake, cupcakes or muffins.  I created this recipe for Arctic Power Berries using their blueberry powder, [...]

Vegan Gluten-free Lemon Cake

Vegan Gluten-free Lemon Cake I've been posting way too many chocolate recipes recently, and even though I could never get fed up of chocolate, I realise that you might! It was about time I share a recipe with 0% chocolate, like this zingy, zesty vegan gluten-free lemon cake.  Spring is the perfect time for making citrusy light treats. I've been meaning to create a lemon cake for a while now and it's taken me a few trials before I found a combination of ingredients that I was completely happy with.  Initially, this recipe was going to be a lemon "drizzle" cake, but to get the white drizzle effect that I was looking for I would have had to use a lot of powdered sugar or [...]
