Soft, buttery, hamburger buns topped with a little Everything seasoning.

2 dozen vanilla on vanilla cupcakes for a local Cakes4Kids request.

This was so fun to make! It is a fruity take on a classic Saint-Honoré pastry.

This has a base of puff pastry topped with a swirl of choux dough, filled with homemade strawberry jelly and lemon curd. On top of the base are choux buns filled with the jelly and lemon cream and topped with marzipan. All of that is garnished with Chantilly cream and few more dollops of curd and sliced strawberries.

I loved this; it was bright and tangy and crisp and creamy.

My favorite quick bread is a good tart lemon loaf. This is recipe yields a very soft, moist crumb with the brightness of a lemon soak and the added sweetness of a lemon icing.

Day 1: baked lady fingers and made lemon curd
Day 2: made limoncello soak and mascarpone cream. And assembled!

Pâte à choux filled with homemade lemon cream and strawberry jelly. Tart and bright!

The half moon crackers are salty, spicy and crisp. Smoked paprika and a little chipotle powder complement the cheddar and Parmesan perfectly. They’re topped with flaked sea salt and filled with a lightly sweet peanut butter filling. Absolutely addictive!

With 6 grams of added sugar, these are lightly sweet while packing a hearty punch with lots of plant-based fats from seeds and nuts.

Pâte sucrée tart shell filled with a lime basil curd, topped with a strawberry whipped cream and fresh strawberries.

I wanted to make something sweet featuring herbs for fun. This turned out so much better than I could have hoped! So tart, sweet, crisp and delicious.
