Coffee Walnut Battenberg Cake (plant-based)
This Battenberg cake pairs a moist vanilla sponge with a rich coffee and walnut sponge, arranges them in a checkerboard with buttercream, then surrounds the whole thing in smooth, sweet marzipan.

Matcha Clementine Cupcakes (plant-based)
These matcha clementine cupcakes are made with part almond flour, and decorated with clementine curd and chocolate buttercream. The combination is fantastic!
Pistachio Raspberry Cupcakes (plant-based)
I was curious to see what this flavor combination tastes like, so I made these pistachio raspberry cupcakes, adding a small brownie on top for a complementary third flavor.
Chocolate Blueberry Tarts (plant-based)
These chocolate blueberry tarts were a big hit. The sweetness of the chocolate and the freshness of the berries balance very nicely.
Triple Threat Chocolate Brownie Surprise Cupcakes (plant-based)
What’s not to like about a vegan chocolate brownie cupcake? For me, if it’s cake, it has to be chocolate. The more chocolate, the better.
Mini Chocolate Cream Pies (plant-based)
These decadent chocolate cream pies are satisfyingly dark and creamy when you need a hit of chocolate, topped off with mounds of whipped plant-based cream.
Fruit Tarts with Custard (plant-based)
The kids have been begging for a fruit tart filled with custard and shiny berries on top for months. I just couldn’t figure out how to make it without milk and eggs, so I kept putting it off.
Canadian Butter Tarts (plant-based, gluten-free option)
It’s like a mini pecan pie but with raisins instead of pecans. We couldn’t find Canadian butter tarts in the US, so we made them ourselves.
Zucchini Lemon Drizzle Cake (plant-based)
It reminds me of drinking tea out of a fancy china teacup on a rainy afternoon in Scotland, with a fresh slice of lemon drizzle cake to sweeten the day.
Strawberry Rhubarb or Apple Pluot Crumble (plant-based)
My grandma’s favourite flavour combination was strawberry rhubarb, so this one is for her. It’s easy to put together for an elegant and delicious dessert!
