Peanut Butter Chocolate Fudge

I love fudge, but since going lactose-free, it has been a bit difficult to find a good recipe for it. The one I used to make all the time is amazing, but it’s made with condensed milk, which has become a no-no for me.

Malbec Ice Cream

I am so excited about today’s recipe: Malbec Ice Cream. Malbec is a red wine quality, typical from the north of Argentina. So, yes… it’s red wine ice cream everyone! And it tastes amazing!

Low Fodmap Orange Cakes

When it’s tea time, I often feel the need for a quick snack, better if of the sweet kind. Following the Low Fodmap diet can make things hard, especially since I am having trouble with fructose.

Low Fodmap Buckwheat Peanut Butter Cookies

I looooove cookies and the crunchier the better. I have to say that cookies in Italy are usually always crunchy. The Italian name for cookies is biscotti after all, and that means “cooked twice”.

Low Fodmap Macadamia Brownies

There are times when only a chocolate brownie can satisfy your craving for sweets. As I am much more careful about what I eat since starting the low FODMAP diet, I am not having as many sweets as I used to.

Orange Polenta Cake

If you are looking for a delicious recipe with a difference, you have found it! Here is my Orange Polenta Cake with Grand Marnier for you to enjoy.

Low Fodmap Blueberry Muffins

Since starting with the low FODMAP diet, I am always looking for healthy ways to incorporate sweet treats into my diet and these Low Fodmap Blueberry Muffins are perfect to have for breakfast or as a snack at tea time.

Low Fodmap Lemon Cake

Today I am sharing with you the recipe for a delicious Low FODMAP Lemon Cake. FODMAP (fermentable oligosaccharides, disaccharides, monosaccharides, and polyol) is a term that describes a group of foods that contain indigestible nutrients that feed bacteria in the gut.

Italian Red Wine Doughnut Cookies

I love these Italian Red Wine Doughnut Cookies. I know it can seem quite strange to make sweet cookies with wine, but it is actually very common in Italy.

Blueberry Clafoutis

Today, I am going to share a French recipe that I often make at home: Blueberry Clafoutis. It is made with simple, pantry staples, that I am sure you already have at home!

Almond Pralines

These Almond Pralines are addictive. Believe me, you may not be able to stop eating them! In Italy, when I was little, they were sold by street vendors during Christmas time, or at local fêtes and markets.

Papaya Banana Bread

Today I am going to share with you the recipe for Papaya Banana Bread. This is a delicious breakfast treat and a great alternative to the more traditional banana bread recipes that you can find on my site.

Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Truffles

After making my Chocolate Hazelnut Milk, I had some hazelnut pulp left and you know I love to re-use leftovers, don’t you? I dug and dug and I found a great recipe for it: Vegan Chocolate Hazelnut Truffles.

Easter Taralli

With Easter just around the corner, I obviously had to share a traditional Italian Easter recipe! So, today I will show you how to make Easter Taralli.

Dairy-free Chocolate Muffins

I love muffins, especially for breakfast. I haven’t grown up eating them, as in Italy they are not something you would find easily when I was little. Italians usually have coffee or cappuccino with a croissant for breakfast, especially when eating out.

Green Buttercream Cookies

Are you cooking something special for this St. Patrick’s Day? I got you covered! These Green Buttercream Cookies are so easy to make and look really cute. They would be perfect for a St. Patrick’s Day themed tea party.

Mango Sorbet

Since moving to Australia I have fallen in love with mangoes. I had eaten them already during holidays outside of Europe (Indian mangoes are amazing!), but mangoes in Italy are… well… pretty tasteless.

Instant Milk Peda

These days, Indians celebrate Holi, the festival of spring, also known as the festival of colours. During this time, people play, chase and colour each other with dry powder and coloured water, indoors and out on the streets. People visit family and friends to throw colours at each other and share lots of yummy food.
