Iceland -Kleinur
Icelandic doughnuts, eaten in practically every bakery. Super easy and quick to make when you need that doughnut fix!
South Africa - Melktert
My boyfriend is one happy South African after I finally made him a Melktert! Crisp buttery pastry filled with a soft set vanilla custard. Set just enough to hold its shape but soft and creamy with every bite.
Australia - Lamingtons
I've never had a proper Lamington so I hope I got them right. I decided to add a raspberry centre for more flavour and just to make it a bit more interesting to make. I did not enjoy dipping these at all, just be ready to have some patience
France - Croissants
Buttery, flaky & crisp all at the same time. Croissants may be the best pastry out there.
Spain - Basque Cheesecake
Not one for the faint hearted, very rich and indulgent Basque Cheesecake with nearing 1kg of Cream Cheese. I promise its worth it!
Finland - Mustikkapiirakka
With a cake-like base and a sour cream cheesecake filling, this easy dessert is light and not too sweet. This will definately be something I make again!
