I've never paired blueberries and chocolate before, but I had some leftover chocolate buttercream and some frozen blueberries so I thought I'd give it a try!

They were a big hit. The sweetness of the chocolate and the freshness of the berries balance very nicely.

This recipe is part of the zero-waste, plant-based tea party I designed in honor of the Queen’s passing.

I made these blueberry chocolate tarts, mushroom choux bites, lemon raisin scones and crispy tofu kale caesar ginger sandwiches – using only ingredients that I had leftover in my fridge or freezer.

This was the final challenge in the very first season of the Great British Bakeoff, which I am following along and making all vegan.

The Queen has been a deep source of inspiration and perseverance to me, so this tea party of tribute is a small token of my gratitude.

I wasn't in the right country to stand in line to pay my respects, so I stood in my kitchen and baked instead, hoping that was enough.

Wishing you all a beautiful day with many peaceful moments.
