Persian Love Cake is a soft and dense cake that originates in Iran. Legend has it that this cake was invented by young woman in love with a Persian Prince. To try and win his affection, she baked him this magical Persian Love Cake. Whether it worked or not is unknown, but the good news is the recipe was recorded for us to make and enjoy forever more!Rose water is not my usually favourite flavour - I tend to find it too perfume-like in most recipes. So instead of using rose water in the cake, I used Lancewood's Turkish...

A few weeks ago I was gifted a huge box of pistachio nuts from Wercon Boerdery.

I really wanted to hero the cherries, so much...

If you're looking for an easy edible gift this festive season, look no further! This Cranberry and Pistachio Fudge uses only white chocolate and condensed milk as the base, plus there's no sugar thermometer required. So technically it's not real fudge (made with butter, sugar and cream) but I'm all for shortcuts at this very busy time of year! It's hard to believe something so delicious takes less than 10 minutes to prepare. The white chocolate makes the fudge extra creamy and sweet, then the cranberries add a lovely bit of tartness. Add to that the crunchy chunks of gingersnaps and...
