Custard Squares

May 9, 2016

It takes a stupid amount of patience to make the custard that can only be appeased by taste testing at regular intervals. Oh and cream. The secret is cream. All the cream.

Christmas Bakewell Slice

December 23, 2014

My week (and a bit) in summary:

  • The section I contribute to in Critic Te Arohi won best lifestyle section at the National Student Media Awards,
  • I went on a date with a mega McHottie,
  • I made some ginger crunch.

ANZAC Caramel Slice

April 25, 2014

Instagram is full of #ANZACbiscuit posts today. For those of you not currently in New Zealand or Australia or for those who live in pineapples under the sea, today is ANZAC day. The day in which we remember those who have served and sacrificed for our country.

Caramel Coconut Slice

April 20, 2014

Apologies for the crap photos but I’d like to share the recipe for this family favourite. I’ve written about Dad’s favourite veggie casserole over on TheSupperClubKitchen.com under recipes worth sharing. It’s 90s nostalgia at
We’ve always seen making our own croissants as a pretty daunting task. I feel like there is a lot of mystique around their making that only trained experts can get their heads around. Since we had little else to do we (Dylan) decided to give ma
