Inspiring positive change through food and education
Raw and baked wholefood desserts and treats with full flavour and without the guilt.
Did you know marshmallows were once made with real marshmallow root?Long before today’s sugar and artificially laden confections, marshmallows were soothing herbal sweets made from the Althaea officinalis plant — the true “marshmallow.” Traditionally used to calm sore throats and digestive irritation, the mucilaginous root gave these treats their signature […]
These waffles are very different as they have that sourdough taste and are also therefore easier to digest as the grains are already broken down. Practically speaking, this is also a great way to use up excess starter. Leave the pre-mix overnight for a protein rich breakfast, or start preparation […]
We have chickens and so most of the time, we have plenty of eggs. However at the end of this winter when they were having a break from laying, I had no eggs and I had a new waffle maker. We had already tried waffles made with eggs and loved […]

These muffins are made using fresh lemons and honey. I also use a this paleo flour blend I found on A Calculated Whisk blog. This flour is so quick and easy to make and better for you than supermarket GF flours. I make these as a special cake for dessert […]

This post and video have been a long time coming. I have now shared this recipe with so many people and it has been a hit with them all so far. I have been talking about releasing this video for ages but we just couldn’t do it. We filmed this […]
Pumpkin pie is a traditional North American favourite. This recipe uses whole foods to create a delicious pie. The pumpkin is roasted instead of steamed in order to create a sweeter, stronger flavour. The dairy cream is replaced with coconut cream and the sugar with maple syrup. You may wish […]
This is my most favourite raw dessert recipe yet. A chewy, chocolaty base followed by a smooth, chocolaty centre and a slightly sweet slightly tart raspberry sauce to top.
