Coconut Vanilla Fluffy Bunny Ears Cupcakes (Vegan)
Somehow it’s approaching the end of another month again. How did that happen? Wow, is it just me or is 2018 passing lightning fast? It’s already almost the first of April you guys and coincidentally that’s also Easter Sunday this year. I’ve already ranted about my confusion over Easter’s jumping date on the calendar every year so I won’t go into that, but I am curious, are you getting sunny weather yet? I’ve heard some of my blogger friends over in Colorado and even Montana are still getting snow up in the mountains. Spring seems to be taking it’s sweet time getting here this year, at least for this area. Since it’s almost…

Strawberry (Ridiculously) Tall Mini Cakes (Vegan)
I’m taking a little break from my seasonal reality and dreaming of Spring flowers and Summer picnics today. It’s getting so close to the first day of being technically Winter here and that means a ton of rain. I’m not gonna lie though, complain as I might about the fact that we don’t get snow here, I’m feeling pretty grateful right about now for the more mild temperatures of living where we do and its relation to sea level. Yeah, like I just pointed out, it’s not even winter yet and I’m already getting ready for it to get warm again. I have to tell you, summers in Patagonia are the best! But I…

Blueberry Filled Mini Pavlovas (Meringue Nests)
……and they’re just in time for Easter, are they not? This lovely little treat has been on the list of things that I want to try for way too long because, every time I’ve wanted to actually make it, I keep getting caught in the indecision of whether to make a huge one or to make it in minis. As you can see I finally stopped messing around and just did it, decided on the minis. I could have left it at calling these ‘meringues’ but the truth is that I kind of just wanted to say Pavlova. Try it, it’s so much fun to say; Pavlova, Pavlova, Pavlova! Of course I can’t say…

Raspberry Filled Chocolate Chip Cupcakes (Vegan)
I’m going to sound like a broken record, but……is it genuinely, actually, truly Friday already, for reals? This week was yet another blur that passed me without my permission. Why does this keep happening to me? I just realized that Valentine’s Day is right around the corner and I haven’t even thought about it until today. Or yesterday actually, but same difference. Summer is almost halfway gone and it’s one of the best things about where I live. I feel like I’m constantly complaining about the seasonal differences of living in the Southern Hemisphere versus the Northern. It’s just hard to get used to bright sun and warm breezes replacing your Christmas snow,…

Naked Carrot Cake with Coconut Cream Frosting (Vegan+GF)
Blogging this past year has made me realize a lot of things about myself that I never knew. One of which is the fact that I might be obsessed with cake. I wouldn’t have thought so but recently I’ve just wanted to bake cakes. So you know how I was talking about fads the other day? Yeah, well, the “naked” cake look is another one of those that is really in right now and I’ve been on the fence about how I feel about it. For a while I thought I’d never do a cake like that because cake decorating is basically in my blood. Both my mother and my grandmother have been…
