The other day I just felt like having a small sweet treat with my tea. Since starting the low fodmap diet, grabbing a cookie from the pantry has become practically impossible (as I can’t usually stop at one anyway). And, that’s when it hit me: meringues are naturally low fodmap, dairy-free and gluten-free, so they…
Low Fodmap Soft Ginger Cookies
Can you believe that Christmas is just a little over a month away? I am already starting to feel like baking cookies! And these Low Fodmap Soft Ginger Cookies are exactly what I need!
Halloween Round-Up 2018
Knock, knock… trick or treat? Can you believe that Halloween is already around the corner? I know, crazy, right?
Alfajores de Maicena
Buttery, crumbly, and filled with Dulce de Leche, these Alfajores de Maicena melt in your mouth and make every tea time feel special. A traditional treat that is simple to make and share. When I first tried Alfajores de Maicena in Argentina, I couldn’t believe how soft and delicate they were. One bite and I…
Traditional Dulce de Leche
Homemade Traditional Dulce de Leche is a simple pleasure worth the wait. Its slow-cooked sweetness makes it perfect for desserts, breakfasts, or quiet moments with coffee. If you know me, you already know how much I love Nutella. Every Italian child grows up eating bread and Nutella, just like Australian children grow up on Vegemite…
Nutella Crostata
Crostata has always been my favourite cake. As a child, I would always ask my mother to bake an Apple Crostata for my birthday. Today, I still bake it quite often my my children, and this Nutella Crostata is their absolute favourite.
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.
Kumquat Jam
After sharing with you the recipe for the perfect White Sandwich Bread, I am back with a homemade Jam recipe that would go really well with that bread, especially if toasted: Kumquat Jam.
Orange, Blueberry, Passion Fruit Smoothie
I love a good smoothie, especially for breakfast or as a mid-morning snack. I find that having a glass of sweet fruity smoothie keeps me full till lunch time. The fact that that glass of goodness is also packed with vitamins is definitely a plus.
Low Fodmap Orange Quinoa Loaf
I love to have something sweet with my afternoon tea. I discovered this Low Fodmap Orange Quinoa Loaf a couple of months ago, and I liked it so much, that I made it many times ever since.
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 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.
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.
Olive Oil Snail Bread Rolls
Today I am sharing with you a very simple recipe for bread: Olive Oil Snail Bread Rolls. I love baking bread. It’s actually one of the things I like to do the most.
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.
Papaya Jam
Few things feel as rewarding as making your own Papaya Jam. It’s smooth, golden, and perfect for spreading on toast with a cup of tea. I have a confession to share. My fridge is full of homemade jam jars, and one of my favourites is this Papaya Jam. I like having a choice at breakfast,…
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.
Italian Almond Carrot Cake
Oh cakes! I really love a moist slice of cake to go with my tea in the afternoon. This Italian Almond Carrot Cake is particularly good.
