Weekend Baking — Pâtisserie du weekend

hazelnut ricotto lemon cake

Because weekends are meant for us to relax, and prepare for happy times.

There needs to be baking time set aside. Try it, you will like this soothing moment, especially as the smell of your baked goods diffuses in the entire house.

Intense.

Rewarding.

  3. Baking baking! What a clue to the kind of weather we’re all having. I spent the weekend baking three different cakes for a baby shower, what fun, one of which is your delicious looking yogurt lemon cake from a bit ago. I’ll tell you how everyone enjoyed it, I’m sure they will. Hoorah! I love using yogurt , butter milk or sour cream in baking, don’t you?

  7. Non mais c’est pas humain de nous laisser avec un sublime cliché de tes petits gâteaux sans nous en donner la recette!!!
    :-)
    J’aime bien remplacer le beurre par des fromages italiens type ricotta ou mascarpone dans les petits gâteaux , ils sont bien plus léger et digestes. J’espère que bébé aussi apprécie;)
