Quadruple Chocolate Brownies don’t wear this name by chance – they do consist of 4 types of chocolate: milk chocolate, dark chocolate, white chocolate and gianduja chocolate. If you add to this equation the chocolate used in the actual batter you end up with so much chocolate that only a true chocoholic could handle this…

{Raspberry Rose Savarin} – Savarina cu trandafir si zmeura
I have developed a passion for French pastry lately, more precisely for baba au rhum and savarin. Needless to say why! These syrupy desserts are so versatile and so delicious!

I’ve developed an obsession (or maybe better said passion) for tropical flavors lately.

{Mango Bliss – Mango and Lemon Entremet} – Entremet cu mango si lamaie
I plan my cakes weeks before an event usually and even so, I always end up changing a few things even during the process of making it. But with this cake it was different. I had no idea what I wanted for my birthday until I found a ripe, delicious mango at the…
