Paralyse me, with your kiss – Tarte aux cacahuètes, caramel et chocolat au lait

[Caramel and milk chocolate peanut tarts]

If you’re anything like me, you might have already experienced that subtle feeling of awkwardness which precedes the very first kiss you’re about to give to this new someone you quite like. And quite obviously, you can never forget the right-after-feeling as well.
Exciting. Electrifying. Paralysing.

I must confess I feel the [...]

Et si on faisait semblant d’être amoureux- Petits choux au chocolat au lait

[Wouldn't it be nice if we pretended to be in love - Small milk chocolate choux puffs]

I checked on the daring bakers’ recipe quite late this month, thinking I would have to miss out on this one (yet again) given how tired I felt.

However, things turn out to be a little different. Far from what I expected them to be. As I opened the forum thread, I was thrilled by Meeta’s pick.

We represent the lollipop guild – Vanilla cheesecake lollipops

… and in the name of the lollipop guild, we welcome you to munchkinland daringbakersland.

It’s not a secret to anyone. I could kill for cheesecake. Great cheesecake, that is.

My warmest thanks go to Deborah and Elle for this great pick […]

The kind of choices that leaves you in an uncanny state of uncertainty; but definitely one that makes you happy, one that you can’t help but think about – days and nights and every second in between -, one that comes with a CAP (Certificat d’Aptitude Professionelle) pâtissier, chocolatier et glacier.

The tart. What can I say? An insanely delicious passion fruit ganache encased in a crisp pâte sucrée shell and topped with syrupy pineapple dices [...]

Je n’ai jamais mangé de pyjama aussi doux que le tien – Cheesecake très vanille

[I never ate sweeter pyjamas than yours – Very vanilla cheesecake]

Saturday. 8am.
The soft noise of the raindrops hitting the window gently wakes me up, making me more and more aware of the pressure of the thick duvet cover (love*love that word so much; reminds me of someone special who taught it to me) against my [...]
