Welcome summer! It’s time for ALL the pavlovas 😊️ in particular these Mango and Passionfruit Curd Mini Pavlovas. A crispy meringue shell with a marshmallowy centre, smothered in tangy passionfruit curd then dotted with balls of mango and fresh raspberries. Recipe on the blog 😊️

I had the pleasure of creating a couple more recipes for @harrisfarmmarkets before our little bub arrived this month. These Mango and Macadamia Mini Ice Cream Cakes were inspired by the iconic @weisicecream and have become one of my new favourite recipes. Mango lime sorbet is layered atop vanilla ice cream dotted with honey roasted macadamias and a hint of ginger, and finished off with a crisp nutty base and a sprinkling of coconut. Best of all - I was channeling all those time-poor mums when I made them, so even though they look impressive in all their sophisticated layered glory, they are a bit of a cheat’s dessert with no ice cream maker required!

Thanks to everyone for all the beautiful messages

Thanks to everyone for all the beautiful messages and well wishes on my last post, our little family is feeling very loved 🥰

A very special post today to celebrate the arrival

A very special post today to celebrate the arrival of our sweet little bub this month 😌 A few years ago we welcomed our firstborn into this world significantly premature, and walked the emotional bittersweet journey through the nursery for weeks. This time around, pregnancy wasn’t the easiest for many reasons but we were certainly overjoyed this little munchkin made it all the way to full term. Welcome darling - it’s been a joy and privilege to meet you and bring you home. You are so loved 🥰
