The idea of combining chocolate with pink peppercorns, cinnamon, and nutmeg came to me when I read the newspaper the other day, and found an interview with Senyor Marc Escudellers, a chocolate shop keeper from Barcelona. He stated that these are some of his favorite cocoa flavorings, and I absolutely agree - I’ve already baked [...]
This pie was very easy to make, and quite delicious as well. I found the original filling recipe through Eric at VeganGrub, and my only additions were a little bit of Grand Marnier, some salt to make the chocolate flavor shine, and a little bit more agave syrup than Eric used. Heikki thought that the [...]
We love the combination of raspberries and dark chocolate, there’s something about the tart berries and bitter cocoa flavor that makes them a perfect match. The construction of this pie is quite like my mocha pie, but this is as delicious straight out of the oven as it is after chilling. Served warm with a [...]
This is a great recipe I snatched from Celine’s inspired blog Have cake, will travel. The original recipe makes use of whiskey, but we didn’t have that, so I used coffee liqueur and soy milk instead. This isn’t a toffee-like fudge, but the consistency is more like a chocolate truffle - and since no [...]
I had never tasted a brownie in my life before baking these, so I’m not completely qualified to assess how brownie-like they were. Well, I did adapt the recipe from an American blog Don’t Eat Off the Sidewalk and I’m sure that Katie knows what a brownie is. These were like moist and delicate pieces [...]

When I created the recipe for this mint chocolate cake, I thought it wouldn’t rise very much during baking, and I’d end up with a small amount of cake. Well, it did rise, I had to cut it in two layers, and we ended up with five mini-cakes instead of the two I’d planned to [...]

This was a Christmas gift recipe we developed to give out as presents. We wanted to make a cookie mix of our own, but also wanted to make sure that the receiver of the gift would have no need to add any non-vegan items in the recipe. We also wanted to be able to pack [...]

This is a cake we made with Heikki for our friend Taina’s birthday party this weekend. It was a bit time consuming, and we actually made the raspberry mousse and baked the cake a day before, and just frosted and assembled the cake on Friday. Now that I think of it, an easier way out [...]
This not very sweet muffin recipe was inspired by Mocha Chip Muffins from Post Punk Kitchen. I decreased the amount of oil to one third and replaced a few things, and this is what I ended up using:
Dry things:
2,5 dl wheat flour
1,2 dl spelt flour
1 dl raw cane sugar
1/2 dl dark cocoa [...]
