CHERRY CAKE

A shiny cake combined with the flavour of cherries.  


FLAN BRESILIENNE

A true Belgian classic and not to be taken lightly.. it's a define combination of vanilla creme, whipped cream and crushed nuts to top it off. 


CALVADOS CAKE

A delightful cake layered with jam, sponge cake, apples and do not forget that the sponge cake was soaked in calvados.. absolutely define!!!

APPLE PIES

Three different types of apple pies/cakes.. to be attacked, tasted, appreciated and adorered at the same time - if possible :)  



BANANA PIE

this lovely banana pie is one that I cannot resist.  I baked the banana slices in a bit of sugar and banana liqueur which means that the banana flavour is even made stronger.  Yammie!! 



CHOCOLATE CAKE


I'm not really that into eating chocolate cake but it's such a grateful ingredient to work with.  Whenever you serve a dessert with chocolate people get a that little twinkle in their eyes! : ) 




CUTE PIES


My apologies for my disappearing act .. I'm back and made some more delicious yammie recipes!! 
Here my cute little cherry pies.. I just love the combination of self made pastry, vanilla custard and cherries!!

ABRICOT PIE

A nice abricot pie with a roaster of leftover pie dough.   it's a nice tip to do with other fruit pies as well as you see the fruit through the roaster.   


APPLE PIE

Another apple recipe.. can't resist.. this time a combination of an almond cake filling and slices of apple to top it off!    


BRIOCHE APPLE PIE

This is the result of using a classic brioche recipe and filling it with apples.  Yes, you must feel guilty as brioche is full of calories but we do have our daily fruits meaning the apples!! :-)

CHERRY PIE

Another one ...  love to make my own pastry in stead of being it ready made.. it makes such a difference!!! 



FRUIT TART

Another pie with cherries and grapes, can't help but use this summer fruit in a pie, what else can we do with it??   :)
