With Mother’s Day coming up this is a time to spoil your mother or the mother of your children! Creating food for others to enjoy can be the most wonderful gift of love. What better way to show your love and appreciation than by baking with love for love. But if you are like me, without that special person to spoil, then I say let’s spoil ourselves in her memory! I made these lovely little orange cakes for just this purpose last year. As you can see I am a great believer in the saying, don’t mess with a good formula! Is that a saying or did I just make that up? No matter, just go bake them, make them look pretty and serve with a dollop of love, on a beautiful plate or beautifully presented in a lovely wrapped gift box.

So what were you doing at 17? Me, well least said on that matter is best. I can say though it was nothing really productive.

Unlike this young woman who, when diagnosed with Celiac disease and a lot of food intolerances decided to take her healing into her own hands. So I am a great admirer of Alessandra, the Foodie Teen and have been following her blog for the past couple of years. Not only is she a fantastic cook, writer, food blogger and food photographer, but she has recently had a cookbook published!! Pretty awesome achievement at any age, pretty outstanding at 17!

Check out her latest recipe, LIME CAKE WITH COCONUT YOGURT DRIZZLE AND FRESH BERRIES and you will know exactly what I mean.

Holidays and visiting family in my household mean loads of primally inspired/paleo cooking & baking. It’s bonus time for me with numerous members of the family introducing new and cooking up old favourites. These holidays are no exception.

Also with a break from the 9-5 hurly burly, there has been also time to change out my blog masthead image. My Chocolate Fudge Cake with Strawberry Cream has stood the test of time. It was one of the first primally inspired cakes I had made and was at the beginning of my food photography passion – all soft blurs (read, out of focus because I hadn’t worked out the focusing thingi on the camera!). So what better time to create a new image that says what this blog is about – paleo with cream!

So here we go – Chocolate Orange Cake with Mascarpone Cream & Berries.
