First Dessert Person entry for 2022! Now, everybody knows citrus desserts aren’t my favourite, particularly anything that’s tart and creamy at the same time. But my brother Joel feels the exact opposite, and it was his birthday this past weekend, so I knew right away that I’d make this for him. This recipe is pretty......
Bakers Against Racism activated once again in April, to stand against Asian Hate in light of recent hate crimes against the AAPI community. I knew I wanted to participate right away, and launched a Spring Treat Box with all proceeds going to the Chinese Canadian Council for Social Justice. I also matched all treat box......
I almost bailed on this week’s recipe as it’s well known around this blog that I don’t like citrus desserts, especially those that are tart and creamy at the same time. But I’ve committed to making the last 10 recipes on our Baked Sunday Mornings schedule, so here we are! My other motivating factor was......
It was my brother’s birthday last week, and I wanted to make a special treat for him and his fam. This doesn’t take any special brainstorming because they all absolutely love Lemon Meringue Pie. I wanted to put a bit of a twist on it though, and decided to make a cupcake version. I briefly......
We had a big fundraising event at work last week, and the following day, an email went out about some leftover items for sale. I wasn’t really interested until I saw the last line: LEMONS AND LIMES FREE TO A GOOD HOME. I remembered this Lemon Lemon Loaf was on our agenda for today, and......
I’m currently facing a disaster of epic proportions at my job: my new team does not eat baked goods. And I’m not talking about the one person who’s gluten-free, the one that’s lactose intolerant, or the other one that’s doing an elimination diet. I’ll bring tasty treats to our weekly team meeting, and maybe three......
It’s official. I’ve reached the end of the internet when it comes to rhubarb recipes. I was waiting for Smitten Kitchen to post something new this year, but nothing popped up, so maybe she feels the same way. The very first rhubarb recipe I posted was in the first year of Planet Byn, back in......
I’m so obsessed with Harry & Meghan I don’t even know where to begin. When the news first broke that they were together, I was like, what? That girl from Suits? But with encouragement from my friend Krishna, I opened my heart to this royal romance and was so excited for their wedding. Kristine was once......
When I sat down to write this post about my friend Francis’ 1st birthday party, I realized I’ve documented all the major events leading up to this milestone: his parents’ engagement party, his mom’s wedding shower, and of course his baby shower! The theme for Francis’ party was Under the Sea, based on his love......
Last year’s Easter Cake was a work of art, in my humble opinion. Three layers of marble cake with Nutella filling, speckled buttercream frosting and cute little chocolate nests with mini eggs on top. I mean, come on. It doesn’t get much better than that. I couldn’t decide what to make this year, and I......
