Rhubarb Raspberry Compote & Lemon Frangipane Meringue Tart
I always jump at the chance to use some Rhubarb. It’s one of my favourite ingredients and try to fit it into everything when its in season. The tartness from the Rhubarb marries really well with the sweet Raspberries in this tart. Layer in some nutty Almond Frangipane and its a perfect match. Little do you know its all sitting under that beautiful glossy meringue top.
St. Patrick Day Choux Buns
Crisp choux buns filled with a silky smooth caramel sauce & a decadent whipped chocolate ganache. Both the caramel & the ganache are laden with Irish Cream in celebration of St Paddy's Day honestly, SO GOOD!
Portugal - Pastéis de Nata
These gorgeous golden custard tarts are utterly irresistible. From their rich sweet filling to the crisp flaky pastry, what's not to love?
Greece - Portokalopita
A delicious alternative to your average cake, packed full of orange flavour and really easy to make. You start out by tearing the Filo Pastry and leaving it to dry for a few hours before soaking it in custard. Once its baked, drench the entire cake in cinnamon infused orange syrup. Heaven!
Poland - Karpatka
A large crisp choux pastry filled with indulgent vanilla pastry cream. I decided to add some compote into the bottom, which isn’t traditional but was very delicious!
Austria - Linzer Torte
This is one I'll definitely be making again! So delicious. A perfect short and crumbly hazelnut pastry spiced with cinnamon, ginger and lemon. Filled with raspberry jam and topped with demerara sugar for that extra crunch
