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.

Visiting with my son and his partner in San Francisco. They live in Glen Park and only a few steps away from some pretty tasty and paleoish friendly cafes and restaurants. What a selection of cuisines, on my first day we lunched Thai and dinnered French. Not bad considering I had only arrived at 1pm!

So tonight they are cooking us up a meal at home. Not one to relax in the kitchen, I’ve offered to make dessert. Being on vacation means, something simple, easy to make, totally decadent looking and tasting and preferably chocolate.

And look at what I have found, isn’t perfect? All credit and thanks to Gimme Some Oven.

Happy Mothers Day.

Today is the day you spoil your mum, or if you are like me without a mum to spoil, spoil yourself in her memory. What better way to show your love and appreciation than by baking with love for love. These cakes are perfect for this. Make them pretty and serve with a dollop of love, on a beautiful plate.
