A month passed by already since Andrea and I made our last “Bake Together – The Baking Surprise”. Fascinating how time flies. Especially in summer. Seems those get shorter every year :P Anyway. The month passed and it’s time for a new topic – you know the drill. This time we agreed on making “a tart with fruits or something like that”. Not very specific :P I guess this time we won’t have very similar recipes. Well… I made a gluten-free Coconut Pudding Tart with Fruits and Berries. Delicious!
It’s time to celebrate! With some cake! A delicious cake for a very special occasion! It is time to celebrate two years of “Bake Together – The Baking Surprise” with Andrea from Zimtkeks & Apfeltarte. Yay! So everyone that wants a piece of this Strawberry Raspberry Ombré Cake may step forward. First come, first serve :P
It’s not really the time for fresh berries and fruits from the farmers market right now. If you are lucky, you got a nice big freezer and prepared some berries and stuff last summer. All the others have to rely on the supermarket around the corner… which is fine. This pie works fine with all kinds of berries. Fresh ones, frozen ones from your mom and the stuff from the supermarket freezer. As long as you have at least 4 different kinds of berries. Otherwise, it’s not a Quadruple Berries Pie ;P
Summertime is the time for berries! Do you like raspberries as much as I do? It would be so nice if raspberries grow all year long in my garden. So many things you could make. Smoothies, Ice cream, cakes or these Raspberry Curd Cheese Cakes…
The weather is not the best right now. Sun, rain, sun, rain… and more rain ;) Luckily I just had a little vacation in Spain with lots of sun and nice temperatures. So to be honest – I’m fine with the weather here right now. If I look back at Spain at the moment with over 40°C in the shade it’s even better here than there :P Not even one of this popsicles would help with that kind of heat, so let’s be happy with the temperatures we have and enjoy some ice cream ;)
I’ve got another batch of cupcakes for you today. I haven’t made any for quite some time, now this is the second recipe within two weeks (the last ones were chocolate hi-hat cupcakes). Today I got some delicious vanilla cupcakes with a raspberry filling and a Swiss meringue buttercream topping. So good!
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 ;)
