Magic Cake
20-9-2016
Recently all over the internet: Magic Cake. We spotted it on Instagram, Facebook and even The Telegraph wrote an article about the miraculous recipe that make three cakes in one! The cake is made of the typical cake batter ingredients (sugar, butter, flour, milk and eggs). The egg yolk, flour, milk and butter are prepared separate from the egg whites and combined right before the unique baking process at low temperatures. Creating a three layered Magic Cake. With a spongy top, a custardy middle layer and a moisty cake base. Although we think that these kind of cakes have been made for years we couldn’t resist making one and try it! One word: delicious!

The rainbow food trend in latte art
8-9-2016
We’re following a couple USA based trend websites and they’re all showing the rainbow food trend. Because we’re not particular fond of the food colouring business, we never wrote about all those normal everyday foods that are popping up in rainbow colours. But although we don’t fancy drinking it, we have to admit some people are making great colourful latte art. We wonder when we’re going to get our first colourful coffee latte!
Frosé or frozen rosé
6-9-2016
Frosé took the USA by storm this summer. The alcoholic treat was served in New York, New Orleans, and Washington, DC. Frosé will disappear from most menus once fall comes, but it will reappear for the slush-loving hearts next summer. We hope it will appear in the Netherlands as well, we love to try it!
