Thinking about this recipe, I played around with some other flavours and came up with these Double Choc Berry Biccies! I was pretty impressed. What a powerhouse little biscuit, chock-full of superfoods! You won’t get that in a Tim Tam! Please check for sweetness. I like the bitey dark chocolate taste, but you might like them sweeter. I...

It’s got that extra special ingredient – love! ♥♥♥ I bought Sarah Wilson’s book, I Quit Sugar last week and her ‘Raspberry Ripple’ recipe caught my eye. Yes, I changed it a bit and thermified it too.

Coconut Hummingbird Cake – Thermomix

This gorgeous recipe popped up on my Facebook newsfeed before Christmas and I just had to make it. Hummingbird cake is one of my all time favourites and until now, I had never seen a grain-free, gluten-free recipe for it.
