Summer Bounty Refresher – Strawberry/Kiwi Cream
A delicious and tangy strawberry kiwi cream that goes great inside of a crispy puff pastry with chocolate drizzled over it, or with a nice cinnamon coffee cake.

A light yet delicious, dairy-free cookie perfect for holiday gatherings or to leave for Santa under the tree.
Chocolate Raspberry Swiss Roll
I am always intrigued by layers in the cake and the nice even swirls of the sponge in a swiss roll. So I wanted to master a no-fail recipe that gives perfect swirls every time. I am an everything chocolate person and my husband (my guinea-pig) loves fruity flavors, so I baked this cake for our second anniversary.
The Meyer Lemon Poppyseed Cake That Wanted to Be a Garden Party
This warm-weather favorite uses nothing but edible flowers, berries, and leaves to adorn it for easily the most simple and dramatic cake you can bring to your next garden party.
Vegetarian Scotch Eggs
This recipe is inspired by the vegetarian koftas (Indian meatballs) my mom used to make when I was growing up. I have tried to elevate it into meatless scotch eggs with a layer of mince soya made of split chickpeas and paneer. The rhubarb sauce adds a punch to the dish. All these indian flavors are sure to tickle your taste buds!
Cherry Dutch Baby
I love pancake houses and often order the Dutch baby. At the local pancake house, the choices are a plain Dutch baby (spritzed with lemon juice) or an apple one. Cherries were in season here in Seattle and I thought to try making a Dutch baby using them as the fruit. But, I had to make it gluten-free so my husband could eat it, too.
Rocket Pop Sorbet
Remember those Red, White, and Blue popsicles? Well, this sorbet is inspired by them, and is a great hot weather treat (not to mention being really pretty!). But, unlike the popsicles, this sorbet is made with no artificial colors or flavors, and it has a decidedly mature flavor profile. Fresh, tart, and herbal, this sorbet has 3 layers (strawberry-black pepper, lemon-sour mix, and blueberry-thyme) and the flavors all compliment each other.
