For this week’s Sunday Supper, we had to come up with recipes with 5 or less ingredients. This could be a challenge, but one that I like! To tell you the truth, many Italian recipes have just few ingredients as we like to keep things simple, most of the time. This week though I really…
Chewy Coconut Cookies
Chewy, buttery, and irresistibly coconutty, these Chewy Coconut Cookies are everything you need for a quick homemade snack. Perfect for cosy afternoons or when the kids crave something sweet.
Creamy Apple Tart
It is autumn down here… and it’s also been quite rainy in the last few weeks. So, what better way to cheer the family up than baking a cake? And being autumn, it had to be an apple cake! I make all sorts of apple cakes and tarts, like my Apple Tart (one of the very…
Chocolate Chip Cookies
Who doesn’t love Chocolate Chip Cookies?? I fell in love with them at 17, when I visited the States for the first time… I had never eaten them before. Cookies in Italy were different: crunchy and delicious, but different. The Chocolate Chip Cookies I had in the US were chewy and sugary and oh so…
Orchid and Matcha Macarons
I know I already have a few macarons recipes on the blog like my Salted Caramel Macarons and my Lavender and Jasmine Macarons, but I haven’t shared a new one in a while. Today’s flavour combination is yet another winner: orchid and matcha! Yum! Don’t these macarons sound exotic? They really are. I am sure you…
Sticky Ginger Marmalade Tea Loaf
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
Mille-Feuille
Light pastry, smooth cream, and a sweet finish make this Mille-Feuille a dessert you’ll want to save for any gathering. Bake it today and serve it with fresh fruit or coffee.

This week Sunday Supper is turning “green” in honour of St. Patrick’s Day. We will be sharing recipes for green foods from beverages all the way to desserts (and everything in between), so make sure to check out all the links at the end of this post! So, green it is and what’s greener than…
Bomboloni alla Crema
Soft dough, creamy filling, and a light sugar coat make Bomboloni alla Crema such a satisfying treat. Whip up a batch and taste how good homemade can be. Happy Mardi Gras, everyone! As promised in my last post about Ravioli di Carnevale, I am back with another delicious treat that suits this time of the…
Ravioli dolci di Carnevale #SundaySupper
This week we are going to have a Fat Sunday celebration for Sunday Supper! YAY! As you all know, Fat Tuesday/Mardi Gras is on the 4th of March, so we are all sharing decadent or Mardi Gras inspired recipes. This is an absolute treat for me. If you follow Manu’s Menu, you will know that…
Sbrisolona
Crumbly, nutty, and lightly buttery, this Sbrisolona brings texture and warm flavour together in a way that feels cosy and irresistibly crunchy.
Peanut Butter Ice Cream
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
Ras Malai
It is time again for the “Secret recipe club” reveal! I am sure you all know what the club is about, but for the few of you who still don’t know about it, here goes a brief explanation. It is a great concept… each month you are assigned a participating food blogger to make a…
DELIZIA ALL’AMARETTO
If you follow me on Facebook, Twitter or Google+, chances are you have already seen a picture of this cake. It was so delicious and it looked so pretty, that I couldn’t resist and gave everyone a sneak peek of it. We had if for our New Year lunch and it was very successful. It is…
Pain Aux Raisins
Flaky layers wrapped around creamy vanilla filling and plump raisins make Pain Aux Raisins a pastry you remember. It brings the scent, comfort, and sweetness of a real bakery tray fresh from the oven.
Couscous Pudding with Candied Oranges
Zesty syrup and tender couscous make this Couscous Pudding with Candied Oranges feel bright and refreshing, with citrusy sweetness and a lighter dessert finish.
TIRAMISÙ
Today I am going to share with you my family’s recipe for one of the most classic Italian desserts: Tiramisù. I still can’t believe that I have been blogging for almost 3 years without publishing my Tiramisù recipe! Especially considering that it is one of my all time favourite desserts! The reasons are many: I…
MINI CARROT CUPCAKES WITH CREAM CHEESE FROSTING
I always make cupcakes for my kids birthday parties as I love how festive they look and kids always devour them! As my youngest daughter’s birthday party was all about Miffy (and bunnies), I thought of making carrot cupcakes in the hope of keeping things on the “healthy side” (well… at least they did have…
MIFFY CHOCOLATE COOKIES
I made these cookies for my daughter’s 4th birthday party. If you follow this blog, you will already know that the theme was Miffy, the little bunny. I made some Mini Carrot Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting, some Miffys/Bunny Marshmallow Pops, a Miffy Cake and these cookies. They were quite successful and they were all gone…
MIFFY MARSHMALLOW POPS
I love making marshmallow pops for my girls’ birthday parties. They are very fast to make, fun and versatile: you can make almost anything out of marshmallows (check out my Sea Marshmallow Pops and my Pixie Dust Marshmallow Pops). What I like the most though, is the fact that they are easy and quick to make…
MIFFY CAKE
My little Georgia loves Miffy. She has had a Miffy doll since she ws very little and has never separated from it. She sleeps with it and takes it everywhere she goes… it even came with us to Tahiti! So when I asked her what cake she wanted for her 4th birthday party she had…
GEORGIA’S 4TH BIRTHDAY
On the 1st my youngest daughter turned 4! If you read this blog regularly, you will know that my family has been hit by a bout of flu that put my husband and daughters in bed for a week. We had planned Georgia’s birthday party for the 1st of December. Her nonni were meant to…
MURUKKU – CHAKALI
Today I will share with you the recipe for an Indian savoury snack that is always eaten for Diwali, but that we also like to eat during the rest of the year at tea time: murukku – முறுக்கு (also known as chakali or chakli). Murukku is a Tamilian word that means “twisted” and even though these…
CHAI
Today is the time to share the recipe for one of the most comforting beverages ever: Indian chai. I see all kinds of chai drinks around and it’s become quite a fashionable drink… so much so that it’s often not the original Indian chai any more and it can get quite confusing. So, what is…
CHAI MASALA
You probably don’t know this, but my family has been hit by a brutal bout of flu… the kind that gives you 104F fever. It is so irritating as it is summer here and it’s really not the time you would want to catch the flu (if ever there is a time!). Also, both my…
BANANA BASIL JAM
Left over bananas. Why is it that I ALWAYS have left over bananas in my kitchen? Ah, yes… wait. It must be because my kids always beg me to buy them when they see them at the grocery store… they promise they will eat them and then, they don’t. I am not a huge fan…
ROSE DEL DESERTO – DESERT ROSES
Today I want to share with you a recipe that my mum learnt from one of her friends years ago and that has become a family favourite. We call these cookies “Rose del deserto” or Desert Roses as they resemble the minerals of the same name that can be found in the desert. Besides looking pretty,…
