I haven’t baked in a while, but I had a hankering for marble cake. I ended up making a banana chocolate cake with blackberry sauce using blackberries from our garden. I had never tried this flavor combination before, but it’s absolutely delicious! The cake is tender and light, and the blackberry sauce surprisingly complements the […]

GF, DF Chocolate Date Brownies by FlavCity
For some reason, I was bombarded with numerous ads on Medjool dates on Facebook a couple of months ago, which led me to buy a package of Medjool dates at Costco, lol, even though I’m not a fan of dates as I find them too sweet. So when I saw the Gluten Free Chocolate Date […]
Enjoying Hot Chocolate Bombs
Enjoying our hot chocolate with orange chiffon cake right this moment. Soooooooo good!!! 😁
Homemade Hot Chocolate Bombs
I keep seeing these everywhere online and figured today is a good day to jump on the bandwagon. Happy Valentine’s Day! ❤️ Personal note: Use 1 cup chocolate chips to make 6 chocolate bombs. Melt chocolate chips in the microwave at 15-second increments. The mold that I used is this one. Make sure chocolate has […]
Unreal Dark Chocolate Coconut Minis
Over the holidays, we discovered the Unreal Dark Chocolate Coconut Minis at Costco! Holy moly, they are so awesomely delicious!!! Coconuty, not too sweet (51% less sugar than the leading brand) but that just makes it so easy to eat more, lol, gluten-free, dairy-free – be still my heart! Zero sodium!!! I’m currently on quite […]
Chocolate Cupcakes with Nutella Buttercream Frosting
Instead of studying, this is what I did in my little bit of free time today. :) The cupcakes are deliciously rich in chocolate flavor but light and tender at the same time. Not only that, it is super easy and quick to whip up. Enjoy! P.S. Happy Valentine’s Day! Chocolate Cupcakes {Adapted from the […]
Chocolate Chiffon Cake
Happy Friday! Chinese New Year (CNY) is next week and I am feeling kinda bluesy. I have to say this is the time when I miss my family the most. Anyway, still no CNY treats in sight and at this rate, it’s looking highly unlikely I would be having a CNY baking marathon especially since […]
Scrumptious Chocolate Layer Bars
This winter has been rough on all of us, health wise. Both Keith and Alex had the flu, which turned into pneumonia for Alex! I am still recovering from a bout of intestinal virus I caught more than a week ago although it would seem I have managed to fend off the insidious flu that […]
Chocolate Raspberry Muffins
I miss blogging, believe it or not :) despite its time-consuming process but I just can’t find the time or energy to do it lately. Between homeschooling and work (not to mention the still depressed and anxious “puppy” who’s continuing to keep us up at night), blogging has been put on the back burner for now. I still […]
Crispy Chocolate Walnut Cookies
Crunch! Hear the sound? No? I guess you’ll just have to make these delicious cookies yourself. Back when I was growing up, the only kind of cookies that I liked were the crispy ones. It took me a while to learn to appreciate the soft, chewy kinds that are commonly found here but my first love will always […]
