“Winter Wonderland” – My Grandmother’s Delicious English Trifle

I thought I’d share my favourite Christmas dessert recipe with you – my grandmother’s English Trifle. As part of our holiday season tradition, we always had many traditional desserts at our festive home. The Christmas Cake that my mother would painstakingly bake and cover in brown paper bags months in advance, the Mincemeat Tarts and then of course the Plum Pudding with Custard. But…my all time favourite was always…and still is, my mom’s delicious English Trifle following my grandmother’s family recipe. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do, this is a taste of Christmas comfort & joy to me.

Sumptuous Crêpes Suzette

The first time I ever tasted Crêpes Suzette was well, OK, in France. It was a true foodie high-light to watch a professional waiter prepare and serve this sumptuous dessert in a quaint little restaurant tucked away in the rolling hills of the Loire Valley. The scent of orange filed the restaurant and then the show began as he folded then swirled the crepes! The taste of this most famous crepe dessert will always impress and is truly easy to make. Try this fabulous recipe – and enjoy!
