Gianduja Roulade
That’s just fancy talk for rich hazelnut chocolate ganache rolled into a hazelnut sheet cake rich with chocolate and more hazelnuts.
Chocolate Brownie
Rich. Chocolate. Brownies. I bet you’re smiling already. I haven’t met a person who didn’t get happy at the very thought of brownies. You don’t need me to tell you that they’re made with dark chocolate, heaps of cocoa, and are supremely addictive. Just the fact that they’re brownies gives them a ticket to your […]
Taking Snickers to the Next Level
Buttery shortbread. Caramelised cashews. Dulce de leche. 70% dark chocolate. Each, delicious on its own. But can you imagine what it’d be like when they all came together, layered one on top of another on top of another on top of another? You cannot. Even if you know the distinct taste of each of them, […]

I remember eating Nutella from the jar in college when I needed to study late into the night, hoping that the sugar will work its magic. While I […]
3 years and Double Chocolate Truffle Brownies
Three years today. Three years of sugar, flour and oodles of butter. Three years ago, I sat in front of a blank page typing my first words. There might be someone who’d probably want to listen to what I have to say, right? For the first few weeks the only comments I got were from […]
Chocolate Walnut Mud Cake
Over the past few days I’ve been looking for a good chocolate cake recipe. As I looked through my cookbooks and scoured the internet, nothing seemed to appeal to me. I was looking for a recipe that was cakey, and silky delicate, all at the same time. Something fudgy and gooey, but yet slightly airy. […]
Chocolate Chip Muffins
I had a sudden chocolate craving yesterday and that gave me the perfect reason to break into my new bag of dark chocolate. I needed something that was very chocolatey (naturally), that would be put together real fast and that was new to experiment with. Thumbing through my books, a lot of the cakes looked […]
