Chocolate, almond and caramel tartlets (vegan)

I love making vegan caramel, I usually love further flavouring it with other elements (not just salt, but also whiskey, pepper or whatever makes you happy). For these tartlets I made a simple caramel sauce because the cacao pastry and the mousse were so rich I didn’t want to make it overwhelming. It was so […]

“Twin peaks” tribute cherry tart (vegan)

Twin Peaks had such a huge impact on my life – I had already seen The elephant man, but it was Twin Peaks that hooked me into David Lynch’s universe, which I have never left afterwards. It is a brilliant show, I consider it a very long film broken down in pieces, especially The return. […]
