Chocolate & Coconut Truffels (Chocolate & Coconut Barfi)

Chocolate & Coconut Truffels (Chocolate & Coconut Barfi) zestybaking | April 10, 2013 12:45 am zestybaking reblogged this from Savory Sights It's been a crazy and interesting year since I first launched this website. It started out as a fun way to share my culinary experiments with family & friends and ended up with me learning more about food, photography and blogging. To celebrate this important milestone, here is my twist on the traditional coconut barfi. Using fresh coconut really amps up the texture and the condensed milk means no additional sugar or fat is needed. Read More

Juniper & Sea Salt Bread

Pumpkin Puree

Pumpkin Puree zestybaking | November 6, 2012 2:51 am During a recent visit to the local supermarket they had a special offer on pumpkins. Usually we just about manage to get through one pumpkin before feeling "pumpkin-ed out", so I'm not sure what I was thinking of when I bought two! I decided to make fresh pumpkin puree out of the the extra pumpkin and freeze it for use in future experiments. Read More

Roasted Garlic & Basil Spelt Bread

Roasted Garlic & Basil Spelt Bread zestybaking | October 22, 2012 4:34 am It feels like ages since I baked some bread and as we had just run out, it seemed like the perfect thing to make on a rainy Saturday morning. After successfully mastering spelt bread during a weekend cookery course, I bought some spelt flour to experiment further at home.

Chocolate Fondant

Chocolate Fondant zestybaking | September 20, 2012 5:42 am Chocolate Fondant is one of the most sumptuous puddings you can order at a restaurant. A few seconds either way can make the distinction between a chocolate sponge cake and perfection. The center should ooze of chocolate sauce and when served with clotted cream it should make for a decadent dessert.  A few months back during a Pastry & Puddings course at the Ashburton Cookery School, I learnt how easy it was to make the pudding.
