Sometimes the best things come out of a little mistake! I roasted way too much red pepper for my red pepper hummus, but only realised when it was too late. But it turned into a super tasty red pepper dip! Let me know if you are interested and I can add the recipe in the comments

New blog post - vegan Baked Alaska (jäätelökakku!) Bringing back the retro classic of cold creamy ice cream on top a slice of sponge cake and finished with caramelised meringue. Who knew aquafaba and a blow torch could make something so good. I used my favourite @3kaveria chocolate caramel nut ice cream and it was so good.

New blog post - Pumpkin seed protein cake with sweet miso frosting! (Kurpitsansiemenproteiinikakku ja ‘sweetmiso’kuorrutus). This sweet/ salty cake has a rich unique flavour. @clearspring organic pumpkin seed powder is packed full of plant protein and their organic coconut cream keeps the cake moist and delicious. I added @clearspringuk sweet miso to create a salted frosting which finishes the cake off perfectly. I have not been paid for this post, I just love @clearspringuk products 😊

The year is almost over, so thought it was time to post my top nine pictures. Thanks for all the support and looking forward to what 2019 holds

New blog post - gingerbread porridge (piparkakku-puuro), with a fiery hit of ginger and sweetened with dates.
