    Chocolate Berries Madeleines

    These Chocolate Berries Madeleines are seriously the best I’ve made. And they’re so pretty as well. Almost too pretty to eat. Almost. The original recipe is from this website, it’s not my recipe. The only thing I added was 1 tablespoon of pure cacao and the berries. And it’s seriously to die for. They’re that good.  😀 I really recommend you to give these madeleines a try. And madeleines in general. Because they’re delicious and easy to make. They make the perfect little treat for coffee and tea. Amy, from fixfeastflair.com, used Guittard Hot Chocolate, but I didn’t have that so I used what I did have, Cadbury Fairtrade instantánea 1kg…

    How To: Homemade Vanilla Sugar and Extract

    Making homemade vanilla sugar and extract is cheaper than any vanilla flavorings you can buy at the supermarket, and you need only 2 INGREDIENTS for each recipe. People always say that homemade is always better and they’re soo right. When you make things like cakes, cookies or even food, you add to the recipe just a few and the right ingredients, but when you buy already processed foods, they’re full of preservatives and nasty stuff. I encourage you to try and make some of the things at home, they’re easy to make and most of the time, they’re CHEAPER. How about that?! You simply have to get up and do it.…

    Small-Batch Fig and Vanilla Jam

    Today I made a delicious Small-Batch Fig and Vanilla Jam that is very easy to make and so incredibly tasty. Autumn is here, AGAIN. (sad face) I am not really a fan of cold weather and layers of clothes, I love summer very much, even though I get tired of the hot weather. I prefer summer every day instead of a gloomy and cool day. But summer will come again, and we can enjoy what autumn brings to us, gorgeous landscapes and comfort food. For me, autumn automatically means canning. I love canning very much, it relaxes me and makes me happy to make so many goodies for winter. Ingredients:…

    Mini Focaccia Bread with Rosemary, Tomato and Olives

    Today I tried something different, I wanted to make Mini Focaccia Bread with Rosemary, Tomato, and Olives. To have a delicious snack before eating when I’m hungry and I’m not at home.  Ever since I tried Focaccia for the first time, I fell in love with it. It was so delicious, so tasty that I would eat it all day. I made it for the first time 2 years ago and I nailed it because I truly loved eating it. Any day, I would give a piece of cake for a slice of Focaccia. If you didn’t know, I’m more of a savory person, I’m not into sweets, so I like…
