Jogurtinis tortas su persikais

Yoghurt cake with peaches

I made this little one for my beloved husband on his birthday. We usually don’t celebrate birthdays but this year decided to do it different way and invited relatives. And we got equally 12 people – and the cake is exactly for 12 servings. But the cake is really big, so I guess we had a little piece left for next day breakfast.

Cranberry vitamins

We all dream about spring, but winter is still here, and all deseases are still here. So I suggest to make this vitamin mixture and be really healthy till the warm days will come. It takes only minutes, and tastes wonderfully. Especially if you don’t like citrus fruit bitterness in other the same kind vitamin mixtures.

Blueberries cake with yoghurt

For the fathers day I made this cake. And it disappeared in minutes, almost everyone repeated. But I have to confess – I didn’t bake sponge, I used bought ones. Next time, I’m sure there will be next time, I will bake it. I really recommend to bake this cake!

Cheesecake

This year we met at home only with kids. So the preparation for the evening wasn’t much. This cake in all recipe sources got a lot of compliments. I agree with them – it’s really good and simple. I used 26cm cake form. And I really suggest you to warm the mascarpone and condensed milk mixture, because if you won’t do it you’ll get lumps when you pour gelatine (Then I had to put the mixture in a warm bath and wait till mixture warms and lumps dissolve).

From the look, dessert is very simple. But when you taste it, you understand that the taste is more different than the view – taste is adorable. Everyone in my family couldn’t stop after one bite. I devided dough to four ramekins because the portions were very small, but I did mistake. I really should devide it to 8 cups because this cream is very satisfying.
