It was about 20 years ago, I first came across Hummingbird Cake when one of my colleagues brought in her homemade Hummingbird Cake to share. She gave me a copy of the recipe that she found in a magazine. The recipe has been lost, but I made my own recipe based on ‘My Legendary Carrot …

My ‘Rice Cooker Apple Upside-down Cake’ is easy and delicious, but today I was in hurry. I tried even easier method. I added a can of Apple Slices and Cinnamon to my ‘Basic Plain Rice Cooker Cake’. I was happy with the result, though it took longer time to cook. This is probably the easiest …
This is another variation of my ‘Basic Plain Rice Cooker Cake’. I used Coconut Milk and added Desiccated Coconut. As the cake batter became too thick, I added extra Egg. Same as other Rice Cooker Cakes, the top side of the Cake can’t be browned, but it looks fine when flipped over. Makes I used …

‘Bread & Butter Pudding’ is one of my husband’s favourite winter desserts. It is not hard to make, but some fiddly work is required such as buttering the bread slices. I even spread Apricot Jam, then cut the slices, arrange them in a baking dish, etc. This recipe is much easier. Bread can be Hot …

You can use your favourite tea leaves, but I like to use Earl Grey. The tea leaves should be finely ground, so tea bags would be the easiest to use. I added the contents of 2 tea bags to my ‘Easiest Sweet Shortcrust Pastry’ that can be a fantastic cookie dough. Shortbread dough is also …
