a truly fantastic moment yesterday, so happy to co-host my first popup in Japan with @apathy.jp and @ukanev_er__ , it was the most fun!!! so excited for our next adventure 🧁🧚🏻♀️
and of course, the biggest thanks to everyone who came to see us, truly grateful and blessed to be surrounded by such amazing people, sending love and thankfulness to all of you 🩷
This week, I had a cake order, and decided to have a little fun by making this kaki almond gf cake, topped with a kumquat and thyme marmalade and homemade vanilla whipped cream; such fun to make and decorate, as I thought, I love making cakes the most 🫠✨
Christmas Eve treat aka a coffee and chocolate cake base, with malted milk whipped cream and homemade hazelnut praliné - hands down the best cake i’ve made so far (and i’ve made a lot, this one made the diff), recipe from Ottolenghi’s test kitchen (with less less sugar)
absolute bomb gluten free blueberry almond cake i made a few weeks ago - special mention for the homemade blueberry jam i stuffed the cake with to make it as blueberry-loaded as possible; really freaking good 🫐
the cake i made for my Valentine’s two days ago <3
delicious cacao espresso sponge cake, with a kinako/black sesame whipped cream and fresh strawberries, delicious!
(ps amazed by the sponge cake, it was so moist and fluffy, honestly you would never be able to tell its gf!!!)
off we go for another year of eating well, cooking loads, and celebrating with the best people!!! love on you all and thank you for making my life full of laughter and joy always <3
a good start of the (food) year!!! (and yes including Almond’s birthday cake because YES it was gf!!!!)(also it was my first time using a blowtorch, kinda scary tbh but fun too and the brûlée was DIVINE)
