Strawberries are simply delicious – I assume most people will probably agree with that. As soon as the season starts these little red fellas can be found everywhere. Most likely in (and on top) many of my desserts and cakes. I just love to use them everywhere. This delicious No-Bake Strawberry Mousse Cheesecake is just one of many delicious cakes you can make with strawberries. Not many cakes are as good as this one here I might add. This one here is a really nice one ;P
In summer I really love to use all the fresh fruits and berries in my bakes – strawberries, cherries, or raspberries – all so good. But to be honest, raspberries have always been my favorites. The flavors are incredible… if they had enough sun and warmth to grow properly ;) Strawberries and cherries are great, but raspberries top everything. I wish I had a big raspberry bush in my garden, then I could constantly bake cakes like this Ricotta Raspberry Cake. Well, in summer at least. In winter it gets a bit difficult even with your own raspberry bush ;P
Cheesecake and cherries are always a good combination – especially in summer when you can get fresh cherries from farmers close by at the local farmer’s market. But even in winter, you can bake this Cottage Cheese Cheesecake with Cherries, if you want. You just have to use canned cherries or frozen ones from the store (you can also freeze them easily yourself). Fortunately, cherries can be stored for quite a while, and using those cherries in a bake like this one here is absolutely fine ;)
I am a big fan of raspberries. I could eat them all day long. The perfect sweet little snack. Wherever you throw them on top – on a bake, a smoothie bowl, or whatever – everything will be instantly more delicious. That’s a fact ;P This Raspberry Coconut Mousse Tart actually does not need raspberries on top because there are a lot of them already in the mousse… but it will not hurt if you add a lot of raspberries to decorate the tart. They are not only delicious, but they also look nice ;)
During the pandemic banana bread had a great “revival”. Everybody made them. Of course, banana bread is around for much longer. When everyone suddenly had overripe bananas and a lot of time at hand (because they were stuck at home) banana bread was the “hot s***t” to bake ;P Today I got a slightly modified “banana bread” you could say. In the shape of a bundt cake. Bananas and peanut butter combined. Something you can bake any time of the year ;)
My journey to find the best “Rahmkuchen” has come to an end. Finally! After years of searching, I have finally created the ultimate recipe with this delicious (sugar-free) Rahmkuchen aka. German Style Cheesecake! If you are new to the blog you might think “what kind of nonsense is that?” ;) Perhaps I should explain this “journey” a bit better. So grab a slice of the cake and get a cup of coffee… it’s time for a little story ;P
I love my job, but in between I love to bake and try new things in the kitchen. A lot of my friends and colleagues encourage me to bake - for a very simple reason: they get the leftovers - and it seems they like it most of the time ;)
