    Chocolate Poke Cake with Peanut Butter

    What started out as a trend in 1970s American suburbia – then a boxed vanilla cake mix made as a tray bake, poked with holes and the holes filled with jello (or jelly here in SA), the jelly set, the top of the creation then spread with whipped cream and sliced into neat squares to serve. As we know, any good trend of yesteryear is bound to make a vintage revival – and, in this case, there’s good reason for our Pinterest feeds to be filled with poke cakes of all descriptions!

    Win this world Chocolate Day with Cocoafair

    “FOR THE LOVE OF CACAO” – the 5 words that describe Cocoafair… What started out as an idea has grown into a full-out obsession for all things cacao. With a carefully curated yet playful name that can be understood as having a love affair with chocolate, Cocoafair had planned to make chocolate from bean to bar at the foot of Table Mountain. Knowing nothing about the process, they started experimenting and making chocolate in late 2009 and since then, have catapulted into success as being one of the very few bean-to-bar chocolate makers in South Africa.  By using what nature…

    Donna Crous’ Celebration Chocolate Cake

    Keep reading to learn how to make cookbook author Donna Crous’ dairy-free, gluten free and paleo Celebration chocolate cake! What Donna says about the recipe: “You certainly don’t need a celebration to bake this cake! Following an alternative diet definitely complicates things when it comes time to blow out your candles, grain-free baking uses calorie-dense ingredients, so smaller slices are all that’s needed. This cake is smaller in size: I use three 15cm-wide cake tins, which is not uncommon for artisan-style cakes and it looks beautiful. Feel free to use whatever tins you have available, anything from a single bundt…
