Panna Cotta. One of the simplest and most beautiful of Italian desserts to make. Though the literal translation is “Cooked Cream”, it certainly doesn’t take a long time to cook. The satiny cream, which is both rich and delicate at the same time is a true delight to consume. And guess what? You can make…

A tangy, fruity affair
So yes. I’ve been meaning to bake a cobbler for a long time now. I was mostly putting it off because I wanted to bake a peach cobbler. But the peaches eluded me. By some inspiration from something that I read/saw online, I decided to go for a Mixed Berry Cobbler. If finding one berry…
The cake, and hunt for the elusive strawberries
15 years and counting.. that is how long we’ve been the best of friends. When she turns 25, and considering I am a fair enough baker now, it is only fair that I bake her a cake she likes. And she is one of those persons who is sadly, not a connoisseur of chocolate. So…

Halloween and Chocochip Pumpkin Cupcakes
That time of the year when adults turn into kids, dressing up in crazy crazy costumes. Though the festival has its origins elsewhere, it is celebrated with as much enthusiasm as any other festival in India. For me, though, it was just another weekend. I didn’t head out to any Halloween parties. Just a normal…
Tryst with Baking!
I’ve mentioned in the past that I love baking. I have been a small time baker, and I bake mainly (possibly only) for family and friends. Experimenting with new recipes (sometimes tough recipes) is my idea of a challenge.. 😉 Not to brag or anything, but my cakes and scones and cookies have been quite…
