The showstopper challenge at Bake Off for Dessert Week was a bombe. The one that won Star Baker made a really nice bombe and, after chatting with my husband, we’ve decided to make something similar, a Foret Noir Bombe. This was a joint venture between me and my husband. So, it was fun to bake

Avocado Pasta
I had a couple of avocados and I had no idea what to make, until I thought of Avocado pasta. It’s so easy to make, takes 15 minutes from start to finish and it has only a few ingredients: three main ones, spices, and a bit of lemon juice. The avocado makes for a very
