Vegan Raspberry Coconut Bars

Vegan Raspberry Coconut Bars

*This post is sponsored by KoRo* A delicious creamy chocolate bar with a hint of berry goodness - these raspberry coconut bars are so easy to make and so tasty! These bars are perfect anytime of the year, but they're a particularly fitting treat for your loved one(s) this Valentine's Day! Even though you can serve any kind of dessert on the day that's also known internationally as the day of love, I do think that something chocolatey with a hint of pink/red just makes it so much more special. You're only making one Valnetine's Day dessert, so why not make event specific to show your special someone how much they mean to you! I do enjoy making heart shaped [...]

No-bake Chocolate Oat Cookies

No-bake Chocolate Oat Cookies

No-bake Chocolate Oat Cookies Delicious and satisfying chocolate cookies that are healthier than your average cookie and require no baking. No-bake recipes are my favourite kind of recipes. They're so much quicker to make and a lot easier to master and get right. These no-bake chocolate oat cookies are a great example of that. You mix all the ingredients in a bowl, then shape into cookies and you're done! You do have to wait for them to set in the fridge, but that's the hardest part of the recipe.

Vegan Chocolate Fudge Cake

Vegan Chocolate Fudge Cake

(AD) I can’t think of anything better than a decadent piece of cake to get me through a long and stressful week. If you’re looking for a yummy, sweet treat that’s completely plant-based, you NEED this vegan chocolate fudge cake! I don’t often eat cake, but when I do it has to be homemade. I’ve always found homemade to be so much more delicious with a better texture. Shop bought cakes can so easily be dry and far too sweet with not much else in terms of flavour. I usually make a cake when I have people coming over, but the restrictions that we all faced over the last year and a half changed all that. All of a sudden [...]

Even though we've had many hot days here in the UK, that shouldn't stop us from the joy of making our own treats. The way around it is to make desserts that don't require you turning on the oven.

Gluten-Free Vegan Yule Log

Gluten-Free Vegan Yule Log

*This post is sponsored by FREEE* If you’re looking for a show-stopping dessert, this gluten-free vegan yule log is for you! A delicious chocolate sponge with a buttercream filling and a decadent ganache topping – what’s not to love? Yule logs can be tricky, but somehow FREEE managed to make a really easy fool-proof recipe that’s both vegan and gluten-free! The sponge is so chocolatey (and easy to roll!) with a deliciously smooth filling and a lush ganache. How they were able to tick all those boxes, I don’t know! I must admit I’d never made a yule log before. They seemed too faffy and long winded, but when I saw how simple the instructions for this recipe were, I [...]

Coconut Caramel Bars

Coconut Caramel Bars

A delicious sweet treat that's super easy to make, these coconut caramel bars are the perfect post meal treat! Have you seen the new Celebrations Christmas advert? You know, the one where the bounty bar is lonely and no one loves him. It's become a running joke that the humble Bounty bar is the one chocolate left untouched every Christmas when the Celebration box comes out. What?? Is it just me that ALWAYS picks a bounty before any of the other Celebrations chocs? I'd be happy with a box full of bounty bars and nothing else. Actually, my partner is the same as me. Bounty is his favourite, so neither of us can understand why they're so unloved! I love [...]

Hazelnut Cream Bars

Hazelnut Cream Bars

A biscuit base, smooth hazelnut centre all topped with dark chocolate - these hazelnut cream bars are so delicious and dreamy! I made these copycat Kinder Bueno Bars a few weeks ago and they were a massive hit! What I love most about them is that the hazelnut cream centre is literally made up of 2 ingredients only - white chocolate and hazelnut butter! I just love recipes with few ingredients. I wanted to use that 2 ingredient hazelnut cream and incorporate it into another one of my popular recipes - these Biscoff Squares. These hazelnut cream bars are made using healthier ingredients like oats, ground almonds and hazelnut butter. I always try to use less sugar/sweetener in my treats [...]

Delicious, decadent and completely plant-based! These chocolate salted caramel cups are so easy to make with only a handful of ingredients! * This post is sponsored by Nature’s Charm* No-bake recipes are my favourite kind of recipes to make, but especially so on a hot day like today.

Mix the dough ingredients together, press into the pan then fill the centre with ready made vegan salted caramel sauce. I used Nature's Charm coconut based salted caramel sauce. Because it's so sweet, I made sure not [...]

It’s been a while since I’ve posted on here and I’m so sorry for my absence!

I’ve still been active on my Instagram page as it’s always been my main platform and creative outlet where I share all of my recipes. Since Instagram Reels came along late last year, I've started filming and editing A LOT more videos, which take [...]

Vegan Chocolate Caramel Crunch Bars

Vegan Chocolate Caramel Crunch Bars

Delicious crunchy treats that are made using healthier ingredients! These vegan chocolate caramel crunch bars are the perfect weekend treat! Made with dates, tahini, protein crispies and dark chocolate, these bars make a tasty healthier substitute to things like brownies and cake when you're craving a bit of chocolate. I used protein soy crispies instead of rice crispises to bump up the protein content and add a delicious crunch! I topped the bars with a layer of smooth dark chocolate to make them a little more indulgent, but you can leave the chocolate out if you want to make them lighter or reduce the calorie count. The 'caramel' is made up of a simple blend of dates and tahini with [...]
