This one, where I decorate a gluten free Christmas cake with homemade marzipan and royal icing is my favourite, as traditionally, it’s the way I’ve enjoyed Christmas cake over the years.

I discovered this rather wonderful pear cake ((Torta di pere e mandorle) recipe by Elisabetta Ludica, on the BBC Food website. The only change I’ve made to the original recipe is to use gluten free flour. And after baking and testing it out a few times, I’d like to share the recipe with you.

Updated 6th May 2023 I do already have a smashing gluten free fruit scone recipe on my blog. And of course, it’s also one that can be used to make a gluten free cream tea. However, after enjoying a very delicious scone, as part of a gluten free afternoon tea at Nunsmere Hall, I wanted to […]

Bringing you another super recipe that I think you’re going to love! I discovered the recipe for these gorgeous pecan squares over on once upon a chef’s website. These gluten free pecan squares have a lovely buttery shortbread base; however, the star of the show has to be the deliciously moreish, caramel pecan topping.

I’m a fan of coconut cake and have wanted to get a recipe for one on the blog for some time. The recipe I’ve gone with is something I popped together as a bit of a trial a few weeks ago and I was delighted with the result. This gluten free iced coconut cake is […]

I’ve a box full of recipe cuttings that I’ve collected over the years. It’s a real eclectic mix of recipes that have caught my eye whilst looking through magazines/newspapers and ones that have been quickly scribbled down on scraps of paper. It’s from deep within this culinary treasure trove that I came across this glorious […]
