Chocolate Mousse Cups (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Chocolate Mousse Cups (Vegan & Gluten-free) I'm a big fan of dark chocolate, but this certainly wasn't always the case. It takes time getting used to the bitter taste of dark chocolate, but once you start appreciating the complex depths of its flavour there's no turning back!  I have a huge sweet tooth, but I'm not the biggest fan of sugary sweets. Things like jelly babies, wine gums and Haribos never really appealed to me. When it comes to choosing a dessert, I always lean towards anything chocolatey. The bitterness of the chocolate counteracts and balances out the overall sweetness of the desserts making it just right for my liking. Sometimes I find non-chocolate desserts tend to be so sickly sweet. If you haven't already noticed, A [...]

Halloween Spider Web Truffles (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Halloween Spider Web Truffles Halloween seems to be becoming everyone's favourite 'holiday'. Even though technically it's not a holiday, it's something that so many of us look forward to every year!  It gets our creative juices flowing and gives us adults an excuse to be kids again by dressing up in any outfit we like and enjoy making and eating some creatively decorated treats fun treats! I haven't had the chance to make many Halloween recipes for my blog so far as I always seem to have something going on around this time of year.

Homemade Raspberry Chocolate (Raw/Vegan/Dairy-free) – Video

Making your own dairy-free chocolate at home couldn't be easier! All you need is some coconut oil, cocoa powder and some sort of liquid sweetener. I like to add nut butter, especially cashew butter to make it more creamy and delicious :D but it's completely optional. I would however avoid using peanut butter because the taste is just too overpowering.

Raw Oreos Recipe (Vegan & Gluten-free)

Raw Oreos Recipe (Vegan & Gluten-free) This recipe is one of my favourite cookie recipes, along with my date cookies and chocolate tahini cookies. The difference with these is that they're raw/no-bake and are best eaten chilled straight out of the fridge, so they're a really nice cool treat during summer, but are still rich and indulgent.  This recipe makes about 15 raw "oreos". Usually when I eat cookies, I simply can't stop eating them. I keep saying to myself 'OK, just one more and then that's it!' but end up reaching out for more anyway, which is a problem :P But because these raw oreos are quite rich, I feel satisfied after just eating one (sometimes two!) but no more than that. So they should last [...]
