Lola’s red velvet cupcake

I have always found cupcakes to be a 'hit or miss' food for me. Either there is too much icing to cupcake ratio, or the cake itself is too dry so the whole thing falls apart as soon as you try to eat it, or the icing is so sickly and overpowering that all you … Continue reading Lola’s red velvet cupcake

Crosstown The Bride doughnut

I finally decided to brave the cold winter weather (we have had rain for 47 days in a row so far!) and decided to finally visit Oxford. I have always heard great things about this city, and now that I live relatively close by, I thought there was no better reason to visit than now. … Continue reading Crosstown The Bride doughnut

When baking goes ary…

I moved house about 6 months ago and I am still getting used to how the new appliances work, especially the new oven. I am slowly getting used to it, but since we also have an air fryer, progress has been very slow. I therefore tried to bake some cookies over the weekend and...well...lessons were … Continue reading When baking goes ary…

Valentine's day has been and gone, and I hope you all had a lovely day if you are someone who celebrates the day.

Any Oxford recommendations?

Name an attraction or town close to home that you still haven't got around to visiting. I have recently (ok, 6 months ago) moved further away from the London area, and one of my closest cities is now Oxford. I have heard amazing things about Oxford, and I have done a lot of research on … Continue reading Any Oxford recommendations?

Buttermilk choc wafer bar

It seems there has been a bit of a hole in my life since the vegan kitkat has been discontinued. There are still great chocolate options out there, but sometimes there are itches that no amount of dairy-free chocolate can scratch. I still get a little grumpy when I walk through my local groceries and … Continue reading Buttermilk choc wafer bar

Tofu Heaven tofu bites

This was easily the best accidental find that I mae whilst in Rotterdam. As a city, Rotterdam seemed amazing for vegan food and vegan options, and I definitely would like to go back to fully explore it all without needing to rush. Our cruise ship was only docked in Rotterdam for around 24 hours, and … Continue reading Tofu Heaven tofu bites

Chocolate orange bourbon cookies

Now that Halloween is over with, the Christmas spirit has absolutely taken over the UK. Granted, I think this began at the beginning of October, but here we are in November and I swear I can barely move for the amount of Christmas decorations currently in the shops. I am not normally one who decorates … Continue reading Chocolate orange bourbon cookies

Should meat come with a warning label?

In the news this week there has been a lot of debate on whether or not meat (in particular bacon and red meat) should be labelled with a warning labl similar to those found on cigarette packets. Bacon has been focused on in particular because Durham University academics tested alerts on 1,000 people and found … Continue reading Should meat come with a warning label?

Best vegan candy for Halloween

Halloween is around the corner and I am very excited! Halloween is my favourite time of year and whilst I celebrate Halloween a little differently nowadays, I am always a fan of any celebration that promotes eating lots of candy and watching spooky movies. I therefore thought it would be helpful to compile a list … Continue reading Best vegan candy for Halloween
