Vegan Napoleon Cake: A Childhood Favorite Reinvented
Napoleon cake was one of my two favorite childhood desserts, the other being Medoviy Tort. When I decided to give up dairy, I thought I had to say “goodbye forever” to indulgent treats like ice cream, cakes, and creamy desserts. Who would have imagined that I could recreate all of these delights using plant-based ingredients? […]
Baked Cheesecake
During our trip to Frankfurt, my husband and I were fortunate to discover a delightful vegan restaurant. Among their many incredible dishes, we were particularly excited about the mouthwatering desserts.

Home-made Vegan Sorbet
For those unfamiliar, sorbet is a fruit-based, dairy-free frozen dessert, often referred to as “Nicecream” in the vegan community. Fun fact: last month was officially the hottest July in Cyprus in the past 11 years. And with August still ahead, it feels like our planet is truly heating up! It’s a great time to be […]
Crumble Cake | Vegan Gluten-Free Cake with Blackcurrant Jam
Try this crumble cake—it’s a perfect recipe for lazy bakers! It’s vegan, gluten-free, and low-fat (with only one tablespoon of coconut oil, which you can even skip without losing any flavor). The only concern might be sugar. I opted for a blackcurrant jam made with sorbitol instead of regular sugar. Sorbitol is a fructose derivative […]
