healthy baking in Cape Town

healthy baking in Cape Town

June 3, 2015 in baking, gluten-free, travel, Uncategorized Leave a comment

Oh boy.. banting is HUGE here. It’s very similar to paleo- low carb, high fat, full of nuts & coconut oil & bacon. What about those of us, like myself, that don’t do well eating nuts or lots of meat. Why isn’t there a name for my diet yet? Surely it’ll pop up soon… Xylitol … Continue reading →

The countdown…

Some of you may have heard, I’m bidding a very fond farewell to the Noe Valley Farmers Market at the end of this month. That means you’ve still got 3 weeks to visit me. For my sweet regulars, I’ll still be making bread & treat deliveries in April. ‘What’s up with this?!’ you’re asking? I … Continue reading →

Once allergic, Always allergic?

January 5, 2015 in food allergy, gluten-free, health Leave a comment

I’ve been an ‘allergic-type’ most of my life. Hay fever, itchy eyes, the works. It didn’t stop my family from having pets- we had dogs & cats. Took a break for a while when they passed & filled our love for animals with fish & birds. My mom never used detergents with scent nor allowed … Continue reading →

Well hello there… it’s been quite sometime. Just wanted to let everyone know that I’m still alive, which hopefully you realized if you’ve been to the Noe Valley Farmers Market to get some treats or say hi. Speaking of treats, I’ll have pie every weekend at the market for the holidays! You can also email … Continue reading →

Buttercup’s baking powder blend

June 19, 2013 in baking, cooking, food allergy, gluten-free, health, Uncategorized Leave a comment

Searching for a cornstarch free baking powder is hard, especially if you want one that’s also aluminum free. I’ve used some online recipes that clumped up after storing them for a week or 2 or just didn’t produce a great end result. I highly recommend this blend… And you can make it yourself! It’s super … Continue reading →

Not only do I love concocting my own creations in the kitchen, I love to make my own beauty products. There are too many weird ingredients out there that I don’t want in my body or on my body. So here’s a super simple recipe you can give you to yourself or that special person … Continue reading →

waffles!

April 9, 2013 in baking, cooking, food allergy, gluten-free, health, Uncategorized Leave a comment

It’s not often I enjoy a real breakfast. Don’t get me wrong- I have something EVERY morning but it’s usually a loaded soy-free protein shake. Vega for instance. On weekends it’s nice to indulge when I have a little more time. Waffles are easy & fun to make. More successful than pancakes, in which I … Continue reading →

After the super bowl, my love for my crockpot was rekindled. I was craving a warm dip but what to make??? Vegan spinach artichoke dip. Totally possible. So I just threw these items into the crock pot. Stirred every 10ish minutes until it was melty goodness. 1 bag Daiya mozzerella vegan cheese (soy-free!) 1 package … Continue reading →

Oh wait… the ‘holidays’ are over. But life certainly hasn’t slowed down. The Noe Valley Farmers Market keeps getting better & better. This past weekend, I completely sold out! Ok, I brought home some raw chocolates but every single whoo(pie)², scone & cookie plus the mini-coconut-cake meant to be for display only SOLD! I really … Continue reading →
