Chouquettes – Mini Bite-sized Pastry Snacks
I like different tastes from different cuisines, but let’s admit it, when it comes to pastries and other baked food, the French definitely know what they are doing.

I admit: the first time I made this cake, it was because I loved how it looks!
When I was living in Turkey where fig can grow and is rather cheap(er than here), I did not really like it. My mother had to force me to eat. When I am living in Finland where fig comes from either Turkey or from Brazil and it is really expensive, I started loving it. Quite idiotic, isn’t it?
This one is really easy. And it does not require very extraordinary ingredients either.
When a friend invited me to a picnic, I wanted to bake something easy, filling but light at the same time and something salty this time. So I baked this lovely zucchini pie since I cannot get enough of zucchini this year.
Ever since I baked Rachel Khoo’s savoury cake, I’ve been crazy about making other combinations. I realised that keeping the cake batter the same, you can make many different cakes just changing the other ingredients.
I had to do it. When Germany won the game against Brazil on Tuesday, I had to bake pretzels the next day. But what a game it was!
Lemon and butter.. Lemon, and, butter.. LEMON AND BUTTER! Perfect combination for a little cake!
Since April 2013 I’ve been working in Aalto University, Creative Sustainability Master Program (the one I graduated from), as an events coordinator / teaching assistant. My job is mainly to organise academic and social events / activities related to the program.
Have you ever baked bread? Bread is such an essential and basic food that once you are able to make one – and if it is especially a nice, crusty bread with several flavours, then you will feel really happy and accomplished. Well, at least you feel like you can really feed people now!
