My how this year has passed. It is during these days after Christmas during the calm before the new year, that I often look back and reminisce over posts on the blog. I remember all that I have done, recipes I’ve made, some I love and ones that have become favorites amongst clients, while others I forget but become inspired to make again. I experimented and challenged myself with raw and vegan baked goods, as well as some elaborate fondant cakes, which only reassured me of my love for simplicity and quality tasting desserts.
But I also visited many classic recipes and perfected my own versions of them. My food styling photography skills have continued to grow, but I’m hoping to finally take some classes this new year, and really perfect my own style. On top of creating more delicious recipes, including finally tackling the Macaroon. So here is a roundup of your favorite recipes and mine from 2015, hoping they inspire you..
