Today Manu’s Menu turns 5! Time really does fly when you are having fun! And during the past 5 years, I sure had a lot of it. I also learnt so much along the way (try and look at one of my first posts’ photography!) and met, although mainly virtually, many amazing people.

Lemon and Lavender Possets
I made these Lemon and Lavender Possets for my daughter’s 8th birthday party. I must confess I had never heard of possets before, but when I read the recipe, I knew I HAD to make them. It’s an English dessert that I thought would work well for the High Tea theme of the party. Possets…

3 YEAR BLOGIVERSARY!
Today we are celebrating my site’s 3rd blogiversary! It feels like yesterday that I started blogging. I still remember how hard it was to choose a name for the blog.

MANGO, COCONUT AND JASMINE VERRINES
