Simple Cherry Pie




I am always looking for something that can be made quickly and to be tasty just as all those complicated cakes. This Cherry Pie is one of the most easiest recipes of all times, but when you eat it - you really can't stop. Simple yogurt cake with cherries sprinkled all over it can be the perfect dessert in a cherry season which lasts only 100 days in a year. Use these days for picking fresh cherries from the garden and making this simple cherry pie.

Pancakes with Strawberries - Strawberry Crepes




I like these thin pancakes. It's always a pleasure to wrap something in those thin round cakes with crusty edges. Sometimes, I indulge my self with pancakes creamed with Nutella or a homemade fruit jam, but from time to time I have an urge to wrap something that could look like the most delicious dessert - this pancake is a perfect example. :-)

Welcome to one of my easiest and the most beautiful cake's recipe of all times. So refreshing, like an ice cream with strawberry jelly on a honey crust - bringing you joy with every bite :-) Contrast of colors makes this cake tempting to all generations and genders... but, with a first bite you take, you will experience a new dimension of stimulating desserts.

Polyphonic Roll Cake




This recipe is really amazing! It's a no bake roll cake with whipping base and strawberries. So much for this time of year - lite, fruity and delicious! I always eat strawberries with whipping base and this is it, only rolled in a pecan-cocoa cake. I have made this cake in no time but the cooling time was too long :-( so I had to cut it too soon because of the hungry eyes of my family. :-)

Unusual Cottage Cheese Bread




This bread totally depends of the type of the cottage cheese and the taste of the sour cream. That is why I always buy the same cheese and sour cream to make the best bread. When I need something quick to put on the table with a smell of the freshly baked homemade bread, I turn to this recipe with a smile because it always brings me back to my childhood and my grandmother's kitchen.

Doughnuts with Vanilla and Chocolate cream




Doughnuts are always on my son's wish list. Doughnuts with apricot jam or with Nutella or with cinnamon and powder sugar or with chocolate cream, vanilla custard, or you name it... so practical dessert for every occasion. It takes less than an hour for the dough  and a few more minutes to serve it with anything you have at home.

Strawberry Cake





Here's one light cake for hot summer days and nights :-) This cake is so mild tasted and fluffy with strawberries and jelly covered with vanilla cream and whipping base topping. The cake I baked is the simple one just to be there to hold these nice ingredients all together. I ate 2 slices without a problem 'cause of the small amount of sugar and so many strawberries.

Clover Pastry Buns



Something drove me to bake these nice and really delicious buns... It was only my creativity :-) Baloney slice between two layers of circled pastry with twisted edges was my new solution for an afternoon snack. It supposed to look like clover and I do think it does and the taste is above great. It's not hard to make and looks really decoratively on the table served with yogurt or milk.

Meringue Cake with Pecans and Chocolate



So many times I have eaten this kind of cake and never tried to make it myself. The time has come and the ingredients were all here. I was a little afraid that it wouldn't bake good or an hour in the oven seamed to me like an eternity. Trust me, it is not complicated at all. I have made this gorgeous Meringue Cake with Pecans, creamed with egg yolk filling and chocolate ganache and covered with whipping base, so you can do it too :-)

Twisted Pastry Braid


I woke up this morning with a thought to make something easy and unusual. I have made a basic dough and thought a little bit more. The dough smelled so good and fresh, and it was so bubbly under my fingers and the idea knocked on the door. I was going to make a Twisted Pastry Braid, so crunchy outside and soft inside with salty note of freshly baked pastry like the one in the bakery shop around the corner.

Poppy Seed Strudel




This adorable Poppy Seed Strudel I have made on my son's request today. He was very happy :-) I was too :-) This is a roll cake that you should try to make at least once in your life... It's not hard to make but you must follow the recipe step by step in order to make a strudel soft, airy and without cracks. I won't say that mine is crackless but I gave my best :-)

White Chocolate Chip Cookies




White chocolate is not that lovable like brown chocolate but believe me, these cookies enriched with sweet little white chocolate chips and with some cocoa powder can amaze you impressively :-) Not extra sweet but just as it has to be... Everybody will like these cookies, so mild tasting and nice looking from the cookie box can last for a few weeks or more.

Dark Chocolate Chip Cookies





Dark chocolate is a really healthy blessing for all those who want to loose weight. Choose these dark chocolate chip cookies with pecans to indulge your cravings for chocolate and sweet treats. I have heard that dark chocolate causes less aging but although I think it can be an exaggeration, I would choose these among all the others. :-)

Poppy Seed Cake with Cherries



This is my first poppy seed cake ever. I was a skeptic about it's tastiness, but I was wrong. Especially like this, cherry jelly in the middle of two layers of poppy seed cake and decorated with whipped cherry cream, totally unexpected, delicious dessert. This experiment was carefully watched by my other half...until it was served :-) Mmmm, delicious - he said, but poppy seeds bothered him afterwords :-(

Fanta Cheesecake





I had an urge for a refreshing sweet cake and among my recipes was this Fanta Cheesecake, so I gathered all the ingredients and started baking. I had help from my sweet niece Natasha. We have creamed a double cheese frosting on a cocoa cake and used Fanta juice for the jelly. Naturally, the cake turned out awesome and above all refreshing!
