Food Photography & Styling Workshop I returned from my (amazing, yet extended) road trip just in time to teach another Food Photography and Styling Workshop at Galerie Jenner. Lots of food to photograph (and eat!) , everyone left with full bellies and memory cards, what a fun day! I want to thank Jeremiah for sharing his gallery space (and snapping these shots of us!) And all the wonderful students who attended. Road Trip!

Desperately. Unfortunately, basking on the beach on a tropical isle is just not in the cards right now. So, in the meantime, I whipped up a batch of these lovely tropical treats to tide me over. Light and tangy, these yogurt pops are a perfect escape. Lime and coconut just go SO well together. Excuse me while I go lounge by the kiddie pool.

Chocolate-Cherry Ice Dream. Warmer weather has arrived, bringing with it my craving for ice cream, which seems to go into remission over the winter but comes back with a vengeance when the temp goes over 80. I don’t own an ice cream maker, and I when I get near the vegan ice cream section of the grocery store, I look the other way, so when the craving for a decadent frozen treat hits, I have only one recourse: Pull out the frozen fruit and get to blending!

My daughter E says I’ve become “too weird” lately because I’ve been putting greens into my frozen desserts. I like the idea of getting a little extra nutrition in my daily dose of decadence, but I leave the spinach out when E’s partaking because she says she doesn’t believe in blended vegetables. (My rejoinder, “I don’t believe in the Easter Bunny, but you still get a basket of candy every year,” doesn’t impress her.) Honestly, if she would just give it a try, she would never notice the spinach in this chocolate-cherry treat. Ingredients Instructions Notes. Aunt Maria's Almond Parfait. Almond parfait is my favourite semifreddo. I love the crunch of the almond that contrasts with the otherwise soft ice cream like texture! It is a traditional Sicilian dessert, very popular in the area of Trapani, the city where my mum was born. I have already shared a recipe for almond parfait when I first started blogging, but the following version is my Aunt Maria’s recipe and is slightly different to the recipe I used to make before and it is perfect for all the people who are uneasy about eating raw eggs.

Serve it with the warm chocolate sauce and you will be in heaven! Enjoy! For the almond parfait Ingredients: 150 gms – 5.25 oz. sugar 300 ml – 10.5 oz. cream to whip with 2 tbsp icing sugar 5 egg yolks 125 ml – ½ cup water 120 gms – ½ cup toasted almonds, minced For the warm chocolate sauce Ingredients: 250 ml – 1 cup heavy cream 10 ml – ½ tbsp milk 200 gms – 7 oz. dark chocolate, chopped Put the water and sugar in a pot.
