Berry and yogurt jelly
Very light and easy to prepare dessert. This time I used black currants. Personally I wanted more sweetness, but for my children this dessert was very delicious.
Ice cream without eggs
This hot day I give you ice cream. All agreed that they really good and they taste almost like store bought.
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.
Raspberry Parfait
This year we had a lot of raspberries. We ate them raw, made some new recipes, and still had some for freezing. I’m so happy about that, because now autumn started… and we started to go to school and kindergarden. The good thing that I am on vocations so I have quiet time to drink tea and to think what can I do good for my family.
Honey-Peach Ice Cream
These ice creams are very creamy, with a mild taste of honey and peach. Just we all agreed that next time I will puree all peaches, because those that I chopped became like little ice cristals and were very very cold ? And in the photo you can see what conditions I have almost all the time photographing my creations 😀
