The cake recipe is yummy too, but the chocolate frosting has become an absolute staple. Basically just dates, coconut milk and chocolate. Unbelievable consistency and flavour.

Hey all,

I know how much I appreciate it when people post their findings on whether particular products are vegan so thought I would pay it forward!

I have a very hard time finding Baker's/caster/superfine sugar anywhere anymore, let alone an organic version (which I have never even seen) so that I can know it is vegan and doesn't use bone char. I just contacted King Arthur and they confirmed that their Baker's Special Sugar, though not organic, is NOT processed with bone char and that the facility where it is processed does not use bone char at all. They confirmed it is a vegan product.

Hope this helps and happy baking!

A new sweetie of mine really likes pumpkin spice flavoring. Have any of you made any pumpkin spice desserts that were amazing and would share a recipe with me?? I've found a few scone recipes that look pretty good but maybe something slightly more impressive!

includes flaked almonds, vegan mallows, digestive biscuits and pretzels + topped with vegan white chocolate + crushed candy canes

*the B(acon) is not from scratch—it’s Mrs. Goldfarb’s Unreal Deli Bacon and it rules.

She’s been teaching herself to bake bread for about a month and this week she decided to tackle sourdough. It’s been a rough and messy process—lots of trial and error. My kitchen has looked like a series of cocaine bombs have been detonated inside for days. But then today I’m at work, and out of the blue, I get a text that just says, “Nailed it.” Knew exactly what she meant and I was stttttoked. 🤤

So we ended up having vegan BLTs for dinner (see strangely cropped photo) which is basically my default order if I see one on a menu. I took a bite, and it was legitimately the best BLT I’ve ever had. Not exaggerating here—just a solid sandwich, done perfectly. Perfect ingredients, perfect ratios. And the bread was for sure the main attraction. I almost teared up.

She’d never post this herself and doesn’t like to brag, but I have no such qualms and I’m super proud of her. She wasn’t even vegan when we started dating (just me) and now she’s a gourmet vegan chef 🥦👩‍🍳!

Why, when I make croissants, do they always turn out mis-shapen? They look perfect before I proof/bake them, but once baked, they always have a weird shape.

Baked at 3am heh heh. Looks a mess but tasted amazing :-) vegan obviously, and accidentally free of refined sugar, oil, and gluten just based on what I had lying about in the pantry.

Made with Liv B's chocolate chip cookie recipe and cocomels toffee. A little flaky sea salt on top 😋

I made a batch directly after making the dough and a second batch after letting the dough rest overnight in the fridge. The second batch is noticeably better in texture and flavor!

Stress baked these Doughnut Muffins from King Arthur Flour. Tried the Country Crock Plant Butter for the first time and I think it turned out great!

Recipe thanks to the Banana Diaries blog ! Very reliable cookie recipes.

Hi everyone,

Do you guys have any relatively simple, hard to mess up, and cheap sweets I can make with my boyfriend. Every cookie recipe I try ends up a big odd( too soft, too flat). The one time I’ve made cinnamon rolls they were dry and needed lots of icing.

Thank you

I bake all the birthday cupcakes for my co-workers, and this month the request was for German Chocolate. The cake is just my standard chocolate and the frosting and filling are from Nora cooks.

Made my first sweet potato pie. We don’t even get purple sweet potatoes in South Dakota. My cousin sent me some from Chicago. I had never had a Stokes purple sweet potato before. But damn, this came out so pretty. Yep, I cracked the crust but she’s still pretty.

so, i have to be on a 0 fat diet for a while due to some complications with a surgery i had recently. you can imagine the first thing i wanted to do post surgery was be cosy and have some snacks and tea while i'm sore and recovering, but now i cant 😭

i'm struggling to think of anything/find any recipes for completely fat free treats/baked goods. any suggestions? thank u!
