I thought of making Marzipan Eggs, as a delicious vegan alternative to chocolate eggs. This is not a veganised recipe, but one that is naturally vegan. Marzipan is made from only two ingredients: almonds and sugar. I covered them in dark chocolate, which should be vegan, unless it’s a cheap version which has milk solids

Christmas Menu 2020
The post might be named Christmas Menu 2020, but, in fact, it is with details about the food we’ve had from the 24th to the 26th. I always share the food I cooked, but this time is different. With the exception of an overnight bread, all the food was bought. I wanted to support small

Pumpkin strudel
I realized recently that I haven’t shared a recipe for pumpkin strudel. It is something that is baked this time of year in all the corners of Romania, usually for New Year’s Eve celebrations. The recipe my mother makes is different from this one, but the taste is quite similar. This one is easier to
