There’s nothing quite like getting a big bag of homemade treats at Christmas time is there, well at least I think so. You have to admit, there’s just something kind of wonderful and truly Christmassy when you receive a thoughtfully baked/made/chilled gift, preferably wrapped in crinkly cellophane or displayed in...
For me Christmas is about so many things, but food and family are the two biggies. Whether it’s whipping up your Great Grandmothers classic fruit cake recipe months ahead or simply popping some shortbread in the oven on Christmas eve. What ever your treat, I think we all have a favourite food...
I’m going to apologize first thing. To all the traditional bakers, to all the Grandma’s and Nonna’s who may be reading this. I’m sorry, but this is not a typical drunken fruit cake recipe. In fact, it doesn’t even have to be made months and months in advance. I know,...
Easter for me as a child always meant one thing. Camping. Every year without fail the family and I would pack up our gear and head out to the bush for the long weekend. We’d roast marshmallows over the fire, build cubby’s in the trees and best of all, hunt...
I think by now you may have realized that I’m one of “those” people. I LOVE Christmas. Like I mean, really, really LOVE Christmas. And I will find pretty much any excuse to start celebrating early.

There are just some things that mean Christmas is only just around the corner. No I’m not talking about when all the shopping centers start playing Christmas carols or even when Santa appears in our malls. It’s that moment, when the tree is up and decorated, when the Christmas carols...
When it comes to gluten free baking some things convert really well! Things like slices and brownies! Of course, not everything is quite that simple or easy. And some recipes are just plain tough! Take my Gluten Free Melting Moments for example. This classic Australian biscuit came down to the difference of...
There’s nothing worse than being heaped with a pile of leftovers. Whether it’s after a family roast, BBQ or the dreaded Christmas lunch, piles of leftovers taking up space in the fridge is a complete pain. (There really is only so many toasties one can make!!). Enter my Gluten Free...
I bet you’re thinking, Stacey, we’re Aussies, what on earth earth are Rice Krispie Treats? Well to put them in Aussie terms, you remember the rice bubble slice your Mum used to make? Or maybe think of them like little gluten free LCM’s. What ever way you remember them this...
