Every year, gingerbread cookies dominate the holiday scene. The unsung hero of Christmas desserts is a heavily spiced gingerbread loaf with a large scoop of vanilla ice cream on top. This loaf is infused with ginger, orange, zest, and bourbon, the perfect combination to warm you inside and out on a cold snowy night. This moist cake is made only better with the strong winter spices that come through with every bite!
This moist, rich cake combines everything you love about an olive oil cake with the lightness of a sponge-cake. Our take on a classic Italian ricotta cake, this lemon & yogurt cake is the perfect pairing for your morning coffee. With notes of honey, almond, and lemon, it’s both refreshing and comforting. And of course, not too sweet to keep from accidentally eating the whole thing in one sitting!
This cobbler is the PERFECT summer dessert! Nothing tops taking advantage of seasonal fruits, and it's blackberry season. The lemon-infused sugar really lifts the whole thing and keeps it from feeling heavy so you keep coming back for more. This cobbler packs such a punch, you'll have no idea it's vegan!
These mango lemon bars are the ultimate summer refresher! You get the sour from the lemon balancing out with the sweet, juicy flavour of the mango. All this on top of the coconut flake biscuit base makes it the perfect snack
The perfect combo of moist brownies and melted peanut butter. We even made sure it's inclusive by giving you a vegan option(spoiler alert, the chemistry of eggs is replaceable!). These are some of my favourite brownies I've ever had OR made, and the peanut butter helps make them light enough for spring. Warning: you may have difficulty putting them down.
Delicious and simple, this alcoholic mousse makes you feel like a pastry chef by utilizing the natural stabilizing chemistry of egg whites rather than the traditional chilling method! The rich chocolate is cut through perfectly by the natural tartness of raspberries and is only elevated further by the savoury characteristics of whiskey.


Spring is in the air, and there’s no better celebration for it than a floral, rich chocolate mousse that’s both impressive and laughably easy to make. The candied, toasted hazelnuts only enhance the complexity of the delicate Earl Grey flavour. There’s no better cure for a mediocre day than a fancy dessert, and this Earl Grey & Hazelnut Chocolate Mousse is no exception! Oh, and did we mention that it’s completely dairy free?
