Easy decadent chocolate truffles
Valentine’s Day is coming up so I thought I better finally post a little sweet treat for you guys. I decided on these lovely, decadent one bit chocolate truffles. They were a staple when I was catering, as they made…
Old fashion pumpkin cakies
See what I did there, haha. They’re cookies that are more like cake – so they’re cakies!!! I know I’m a dork, but in fairness it was my dorky fiancé that came up with the name; but it works. So obviously…
Rustic apple galette
This recipe started off as an entry to a photography challenge, and turned into something far more than that. I absolutely love it. See I’m not a huge pie fan – I actually don’t like pie crust, I do like…
Cherry coconut oat bars
I love cherries, I mean who doesn’t love cherries? And it’s cherry season in BC and I couldn’t be happier. But I always eat cherries fresh, just the way they are. I’ve never really been a big fan of cooked…

Vegan almond salted caramels
Ok, so I’m not vegan, I’m not even vegetarian. I’m just more conscious of things now then I was before. So we try to eat vegetarian in our house at least 3 times a week, eat more fish and less…
Pineapple, coconut & mint popsicles
Summer time is for sunshine and frozen treats. At least that’s one of the things I remember from when I was a kid. It seemed when school ended my parents were a little more lenient when it came to treats.…
Blueberry vanilla scones
I have to admit, I am not a scone fan. I’m not really a pastry fan period, but scones I especially don’t like. I always find whenever I get them, they’re hard and kind of flavorless and I have to…
