Summer is just flying by! I’ve been consuming a crazy amount of fresh berries, and freezing a bunch so I can snack on them all winter too. I feel so lucky that I live in a place that grows such amazing produce!

no churn blueberry ice cream

I had never made no churn ice cream before this Spring….can you believe it?! I finally tried it, and was blown away. Easy to whip up in less than 5 minutes (depending on what mix ins you choose), and shockingly creamy, this is such a fun and simple project for a warm day. Now I’ll always love my ice cream machine and dreamy custard bases, but truly appreciate having such a good option for doing without one!

super easy strawberry skillet cake

Hello friends! We are in the thick of strawberry season where I’m from, and there are fields upon fields of these gorgeous berries. I went u-picking the other night with my mom and sister, and all agreed that few things smell better than a strawberry field at peak harvest! It was heaven.

retro cherry chip layer cake with vanilla butter cream

This cake was 100% inspired by the gorgeous cherry blossoms that graced us with their presence a few weeks ago! Pink topped trees lined the streets, spreading petal confetti whenever the wind blew too hard. They are one of the first signs of Spring, and a sight for sore eyes after the cold of Winter.

mini egg nest pavlovas

So, I have a thing for pavlova. And decided to take my love for it and marry it with my mini egg obsession. Cute little meringue nests were born. Then came the whipped cream. All topped with the most beautiful shimmery mini eggs that I found while visiting Target in the U.S. (I’m so in love with Target…but also a little bit grateful that we don’t have them in Canada as I’d likely be broke!)

carrot roll cake with Woolwich Original Fresh Soft Goat Cheese | #ad

First you’ll notice that this is a roll cake. I’ve never seen a carrot roll cake before, and was a little nervous about how it would work, but it was a dream! Of course I went through a few rounds of testing, some were hilariously bad...haha, but the result is a perfectly fluffy cake that bakes up in about 10 minutes! Then I decided to do a fresh take on the classic pairing of cream cheese frosting, and instead used Woolwich Dairy’s Original Soft Fresh Goat Cheese paired with brown butter. I’m obsessed with this goat cheese as it’s such a unique flavour, is made with Canadian goat milk, and it complemented the warm spices in the carrot cake so well.
