TRIPLE LAYERED CAKE

Saturday, December 9, 2017

Hello lovelies,

here is the recipe of the cake I made recently.
I had these ingredients at home, so I decided to make it. I totally randomly used the ingredients. I didn't follow any recipe.

The cake is really healthy and super delicious!



REINDEER CHOCOLATE BALLS

Sunday, January 8, 2017

Hello lovelies,

here is the recipe of my Reindeer chocolate balls that I make every year. I made this recipe up, using the ingredients that I thought would be nice to mix together, but also healthy. All the versions of these reindeer balls I saw on the internet are way more different, with lots of sugar and milk chocolate, butter, etc.


I love cooking, and I think all of you know that already :D It is so relaxing and creative and I enjoy it very much. I would love to have my own youtube channel where I would only be cooking, sharing some healthy recipe ideas with you.

These reindeer chocolate balls make me so happy, and I couldn't wait Christmas to make them. It became sort of a ritual in my kitchen :P

So here are the ingredients you will need:
(bare in mind that I made up the recipe, so it is totally up to you what ingredients you will use, and what you prefer more, but if you use the exact same ingredients, I assure you, you will die when you taste them :D)




BUCKWHEAT BREAD

Friday, September 2, 2016

Hello lovelies,

here's another recipe I decided to share with you.
I am not a massive fan of bread, nor do I eat it regularly. I try to avoid it as much as possible, unless I bake it myself. Then, I'm 100% sure what goes in my belly. I only bake healthy versions of pancakes and bread, and I love the taste of it!

This recipe is easy and quick to make.
I baked it in a mini loaf pan, and I prefer it that way. Because I do not eat bread a lot, I do not want to bake big bread, waste the ingredients, and then throw the half of it away.

This way, the bread is gone within a day or two (if you share it with others it will definitely be gone within a day)

I have found some healthy ingredients and I will not change the recipe until I discover something new and healthy as well. I like it this way, and I hope that you will try this recipe as well :)

You will need:


  • Bio baking powder (gluten free, vegan)
  • 100-200 ml of water
  • 250 grams of buckwheat flour (gluten free, wheat free)
  • Handful of cranberries, goji berries and raisins
  • Half a teaspoon of sea salt
  • A teaspoon of honey
  • A teaspoon of coconut oil
  • One egg
Mix the dry ingredients in one bowl. Mix the liquid ingredients in the separate bowl and slowly add the liquid mixture into the dry one. Mix all together so you get nice blended mixture. Spray your mini loaf pan with coconut oil and bake it at 250C for 30 minutes.

You can eat it with your favourite jam, or with melted chocolate on top. It tastes amazing. 






I love crepes

Wednesday, August 3, 2016

Hello lovelies,

if you read my recent blog post about buckwheat crepes recipe, you will definitely love these ones even more.

In fact, the recipes are almost the same, except the toppings, which are not only the fruit and honey.

I find these crepes the best thing in the world when I am craving something sweet, but still want to eat healthy. As a matter of fact I don't even remember eating 'the white flour and milk' ones for ages.
I discovered this stevia line hazelnut spread which is way better than nutella, and guess what, it's healthy!
You can always use dark chocolate as well. I use it quite often, and mix it with coconut cream to get better taste.

The only negative side of making crepes is lack of time. It makes me avoid this recipe, but whenever I have one or two hours to spare, I choose crepes.

The dishwashing and cleaning of the mess afterwards is negative side as well, but hey, if you enjoy cooking and baking, it's worth it! Plus you know what you put in your belly. It's healthy and nutritious.

I'd rather spend a couple of hours preparing the meal at home, than treating my body like a trash can and filling it with fast food.



For this recipe you will need:


  • 1 egg
  • 500 ml of coconut milk
  • 300 g of buckwheat flour
  • coconut oil
  • hazelnut spread (stevialine)
  • some fruit (I used raspberries)

When it comes to toppings, as I have mentioned you can use dark chocolate, and lots of berries. Any fruit you fancy really! If you want to make it extra sweet (but healthy) you can use honey, agave syrup or maple syrup.


But let's be honest, whatever you choose, it's going to taste delicious!



Healthy Chocolate Protein Balls

Monday, January 4, 2016

Hello lovelies,
it's time for the recipe for all the sweet tooth junkies out there. It is healthy as well. Not only junk food is delicious. Healthy food can be delicious too.

This recipe has some ingredients which are not 100% healthy, such as chocolate, but you can use 100% dark chocolate if that is the flavor you prefer and want to make the balls 100% healthy. My option is always dark chocolate, but this time, I was making the balls for the guests, so I didn't want to use 100% dark chocolate, as some of them do not like the bitter taste of it.

Ingredients I used:

  • 500gr milk chocolate (stevia version)
  • Almond milk
  • Coconut oil
  • Honey
  • Hazelnuts
  • Almonds
  • Walnuts
  • Plazma biscuits (and a couple of Elvita wholegrains biscuits)
  • Vanilla sugar
  • Dolcela decoratives for baking
  • Chia seeds
  • Pretzels
The mixture for protein balls is super easy. But, you will need around two hours to make 30 chocolate balls if you want to make them super polished and nice looking. As well as extra half an hour for reindeer balls. Decorating takes the most of the time. But if you like baking it will be fun and joyful.

Make the mixture out of coconut oil, honey and almond milk. Pour it into one big bowl. Hazelnuts, biscuits, walnuts, almonds, chia seeds, vanilla sugar are the ingredients that you should mix together with the liquid mixture. You will know when the mixture is perfect once you try to make the balls with your hands. You can put the mixture in the fridge for half an hour, and it will be easier to shape the balls.

For the chocolate dip, melt it over the hot boiling water. Put a little bit of almond milk and coconut oil. Once your balls are ready, dip them into the chocolate. You can decorate them with m&m's. It is up to you. I decorated mine with m&m's because there were some left, as I needed only red ones for the noses of reindeer balls. 

I used little white balls for the eyes, and pretzels for the ears. 




Healthy Lifestyle

Tuesday, March 24, 2015

Hello lovelies,
this post will be about healthy lifestyle I am really keen on. I've been into this kind of regime for years, with slight changes, and I'm into it 100%.
I love baking and cooking, which is a plus for those who want to take care of everything they get into their bellies. Cooking is my passion, and I find it connected to my artistic side.
Not only I prepare the food I eat, most of the time, but I really take care where I buy the products and I check out every ingredient. I do yoga and pilates at home, and that makes me take care of my diet even more.
I do not drink alcohol nor smoke, lucky me :) It's not something I resist doing, but something I enjoy. I enjoy my lifestyle, and there's nothing that I hate more than alcohol and cigarettes.
The money I save on those things, I spend on clothes, make up and healthy food :)
So, these are the facts I think some of you may find helpful, since I got a lot of e-mails with requests on my diet regime.
