‘The pathway of June’ My birthday went and midsummer is almost here, which means it is time to leave to the summer place this week. On my birthday I wanted to visit the apple blossom meadows, but there had been a storm the night before so all the blossoms had fallen down. However, this did…

Rhubarb Lemon Mousse Semi-naked Cake

Chocolate Mousse Tea cake
March is officially here and I wanted to cosy up this Sunday by baking a small layer cake that would be perfect for tea time. I haven’t made anything chocolate related in a really long time so I thought a fluffy chocolate mousse cake would do the trick. With a changing month, I also decided…
