These Gluten and Dairy Free Raspberry and Chocolate Brownie Slices were absolutely ideal for my hen party season! It’s wedding wedding wedding prep over at my household at the moment. Not mine, I should add, but lots of my friends have decided this is the year to tie the knot and therefore hen party preparations […]

Chocolate Orange Protein Bread
April 4, 2017 by bright-admin - in Bread, Dessert, Fitness Fuel, Free From, Healthy Alternative, Loaf
My boyfriend is ‘bulking’ – which, for those who don’t know what it means, is basically trying to gain mass and muscle. My mission – to make a Chocolate Orange Protein Bread for my boyfriend that he doesn’t feel guilty eating, has a good boost of protein in it and is still a tasty treat. […]
Gluten Free Apple Cake with Toffee Frosting
November 11, 2016 by bright-admin - in Cake, Dessert, Free From, Gluten Free, Halloween
There’s nothing quite like the autumnal flavours of a huge toffee apple. I, however, find them stupidly difficult to eat, so I made this Gluten Free Apple Cake with Toffee Frosting for slightly easier consumption and something perfect to share (oh and I reckon tastier…!) Enjoy bakers! Ingredients for Gluten Free Apple Cake with Toffee […]
Strawberry Cream Cheese Muffins
May 5, 2016 by bright-admin - in Cupcake, Dessert, Indulgent, Muffin, Valentines
Sitting on my balcony in the May sunshine brought only one thing to mind – what bake would I like to stuff my face with right now? Strawberry Cream Cheese Muffins were the answer. Many people are put off with baking at all in the heat, but these aren’t in the oven for long and […]
Vegan Choco Krispies
April 4, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bites, Brownie, Dessert, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative, Indulgent, Traybake, Vegan
Usually my baking creations are invented because of an impending event or request, but these Vegan Choco Krispies were born out of lust. A purely selfish bake – I wanted chocolate, I wanted coconut oil, I wanted something crunchy but fudgey and I didn’t want to feel too bad about eating it (so hopefully you […]
Chocolate Orange Cake
March 3, 2016 by bright-admin - in Cake, Dessert, Indulgent
IT’S EASTER – and what better excuse do you need to make this delicious Chocolate Orange Cake. Lent, for me, usually revolves around giving up chocolate, so I always fancy something indulgent and chocolatey as an Easter Sunday reward. So here it is, simple as that – My Chocolate Orange Reward Cake. Ingredients for Chocolate […]
Chocolate Guinness Muffins
March 3, 2016 by bright-admin - in Cupcake, Dessert, Indulgent, Muffin
These Chocolate Guinness Muffins were created with St Patricks Day in mind. I’ve got my brothers girlfriend, Mari, over for a ‘cake date’ and seeing as it’s St Patricks Day this week, what better excuse than to add a little tipple into the bake. The Guinness gives these muffins a really luscious, dark, moist depth, […]

December 12, 2015 by bright-admin - in Bites, Cake, Christmas, Cupcake, Dessert, Free From, Healthy Alternative, Muffin, Vegan
These Vegan Cranberry & Pecan Upside Down Cakes are not only for the Vegan crowd. I wanted to make something that I could serve at a dinner party (or any party for that matter) and no one would know whether it was vegan/healthy/indulgent/whatever – a crowd pleaser, something that would go down well with everyone, […]

Christmas Tree Meringues
December 12, 2015 by bright-admin - in Bites, Christmas, Dessert, Indulgent
It always puts a smile on my face when I see Christmas themed snacks and desserts and this is where my Christmas Tree Meringues have come from. I’m not particularly great at the decoration side of baking but still wanted that smile factor. This is something all of us can make whatever your skill level. […]
‘Lighter’ Blueberry Yogurt Cheesecake
August 8, 2015 by bright-admin - in Cake, Dessert, Free From, Gluten Free, Healthy Alternative
Everyone loves cheesecake, right? At least everyone I know loves cheesecake. I’m surrounded by cheesecake fiends. However, I’m not a fan of the MASSIVE calorie/sugar/fat content. I needed something that resembled a cheesecake that I could have half of and not feel toooo guilty. Nothing in the shops was inspiring me, so I made my […]
Mini Victoria Sponge Cakes
February 2, 2016 by bright-admin - in Bites, Cake, Cupcake, Dessert, Indulgent, Valentines
It’s still feeling summer-y and it’s also my Grandad’s birthday. My Grandad is notoriously picky when it comes to food, he likes simple flavours and nothing too far from the ‘ordinary’. My vegan/gluten/nut free coconut and lime energy balls would not be up his street, but who doesn’t like a classic Victoria sponge? To be […]
Rum Soaked Sultana Scones
November 11, 2015 by bright-admin - in Bites, Christmas, Dessert, Indulgent
I asked my Dad what he would like me to bake in the lead up to Christmas and he promptly answered SCONES. I’ve made scones before (Wholemeal Christmas Spice Scones – Mini Strawberry Scones) but he said he wanted the classic fluffy sultana scone with a twist. I thought alcohol was the answer to this […]
Rocky Road (with all the bad stuff)
June 6, 2015 by bright-admin - in Biscuit, Bites, Dessert, Indulgent, Traybake
I’m off to my friend, Will’s, BBQ and I refuse to go empty handed but I also don’t have much time. These rocky road bars are simple, quick and a massive crowd pleaser. Will is a chocolate fiend, if he’s having a chocolate treat he is having a CHOCOLATE treat. There’s no time for nuts […]
Blackberry & Yogurt Spelt Cake with a White Choc Drizzle
May 5, 2015 by bright-admin - in Cake, Dessert, Indulgent
Yet another birthday got me baking, this time my Dad. This Blackberry & Yogurt Spelt Cake with a White Choc Drizzle isn’t necessarily the first thing one might think of for a birthday, but my Dad always likes something a little different. He’s not one for a big chocolate mess or a creamy vanilla bomb, […]
