Hello friends! We are in the thick of strawberry season where I’m from, and there are fields upon fields of these gorgeous berries. I went u-picking the other night with my mom and sister, and all agreed that few things smell better than a strawberry field at peak harvest! It was heaven.
Read MoreHeyyyy!!! I'm trying something a bit outside my comfort zone! Piping flowers!!
I'm obsessed with Molly Yeh (WHO ISN'T?!!), and finally felt brave enough to try my hand at piping a few of my own flowers out of frosting. Honestly, it was easier than I thought, although it is time consuming! I love that there is really no risk here besides wasting your own time. Ha! And I'm obviously not scared of that! Now, I'm not offering a full flower tutorial here (yet!!), since I'm still such a newbie. But I watched a lot of youtube videos, practiced a lot, and just scraped the ones I didn't like back into the bowl of frosting. Win! Seriously, pipe a bunch onto parchment, and just redo them as you find a technique that works for you. The hardest part is keeping your frosting at the right consistency, so doing this on a super hot day is a no no unless you have A/C! (Or unless you're a late night baker like I am...haha!). If you're frosting starts losing shape, then simply pop it back in the fridge to firm up a bit.
Read MoreHelloooo Summer tart! Sweet strawberries, tart rhubarb, and the butteriest short bread crust come together in a heavenly combo to make your tastebuds so so happy. It's a melt in your mouth crust with a sweet tart curd filling. Definitely recommend!
And yes, if it isn't 100% obvious by now, strawberry rhubarb continues to be my ultimate favourite flavour combo.
See this cheesecake, this ice cream, or this pie for proof.
Read MoreCan you tell that strawberry rhubarb is a big deal over here? Seriously one of the best flavour combos of all time, especially when they're roasted together to really bring out their flavours. Although I must say that I'm not a huge fan of roasting strawberries unless they're local ones....the California ones the grocery stores carry the rest of the year just aren't the same! Honestly they just taste like disappointment. Ha! Which is why I go a bit strawberry crazy for a very short period of time.
Read Moreoh hey friends! I am so so pumped about this recipe! I love me a good no bake cheesecake recipe for those boiling hot summer days because turning on my oven for hours is a big NO NO in my non-air conditioned greenhouse of an apartment. *sweats just thinking about it*
Read MoreIf you know me well, then you probably know that strawberries are the only berry that I'll eat fresh by the bucket. I know I'm a weirdo, but I just don't like other berries, unless they're baked into pancakes, muffins, or a pie. Ha!
