I never eat all of my blueberries, eating them raw just doesn’t do it for me. When they are baked into a batter? Oh heck ya! Now ya talkin. Cooking blueberries really brings out their flavor. I had pretty much a whole container left in the fridge that I knew would go to waste… so …
Orange Curd
Okay, so I hadn’t really made a curd outside of lemon meringue pie. Man was I missing out! Orange curd is so tasty! I mean, I have to hide it from myself or I will slather it on everything. It goes great on pavlovas, fingerprint cookies, cakes, hell even toast! Put a little whipped cream …
Caramel Recipe
A basic and versatile caramel recipe. Can be used as sauce, on apples, in chocolates, or as just salted caramel pieces. The difference in hardness is in the cook time and temperature. I don’t have a candy thermometer, so i always rely on the old timey ball stage method. For caramel pieces you cook till …
Fondant Heart Cake Toppers

Those little tubes from the grocery store? I can’t ever buy them again. I AM RUINED because of this recipe. RUINED. This recipe is …
Lemon Icebox Pie
Oh Lemon Icebox pie, how I love thee. The perfect mixture of sweet, fat, and tart. It really is the best! Lemon desserts are always my go to, I haven’t met one I haven’t loved yet. This pie is not quite a Lemon Meringue, maybe more similar to a Key Lime pie. Crunchy graham cracker …
Glazed Orange Yogurt Cake
I don’t know about you guys, but I am a citrus FREAK. Lemon, limes, and frickin oranges man. You’ll find a LOT of my recipes feature these zesty beasts of the fruit family. So if you share in my acidic enthusiasm, this post is for you! You know when you go to the grocery store …
