Fig Cake with Almond Flour – Figs, Figs, Figs…
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?
Zucchini Pie – Zucchini Love
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.
Zucchini, Feta and Olive Cake – The Ultimate Savoury

Chocolate Fudge Cake with Coconut Cream Ganache – Getting Chocolatey with Jemima
I was sitting in a cafe in Kluuvi a few months ago, on a weekday afterwork, waiting for a friend. As I was looking around to see her, a joyful, smiling girl caught my eye, she was passing by the cafe, and I immediately recognised her: Jemima! She came to my table, quickly gave me a hug saying hello to me, the “chef”, continued with “keep up the good work” and then left. I had a huge smile on my face after this quick and happy encounter.

Dried Plum and Walnut Cake – It’s A Happy Cake!

Matcha Green Tea Swiss Roll – with Raspberry Buttercream Filling
I am an avid tea drinker but I am not really a fan of green tea. Yet one day, I was again lost in the world of recipes on the internet, getting excited with many things to try, and then I saw this ingredient: green tea powder, which you can use to make cakes, cookies, pastries… That was it – I had to try green tea powder!
