Dairy-free Chocolate Mousse

Yes, I am a dairy fanatic. Cream, cream cheese, cheese, butter (unsalted, people!), yoghurt, full-fat milk . . . you really can’t keep me away from the stuff. However, I know some of you don’t have the same tolerance for it. I therefore present you with this dairy-free mousse. Vegan,…

Coconut Mocha Frappuccino

There isn’t a smidgeon of dairy in this über creamy concoction. Instead, coconut, chocolate, and coffee flavour this decadently creamy drink. Did I say drink?

Instant Ganache (for one!)

I love chocolate ganache - that smooth, velvety cream laced with the darkest of cocoa dreams. Usually, though, it takes a while for the mixture to gain that thick glossiness. Not this stuff. A few seconds of stirring, and you have a cute little bowl of bliss. Eat it sprinkled…
