This morning I had some banana mixed with almonds, honey, cinnamon, and blueberries, and baked with eggs and coconut oil. I then added some soaked cashews, coconut cream, maple syrup and a little lemon juice, topped off with a couple of banana crisps.
With a 20/80 caff/decaf almond milk coffee.

I’ve treated myself without sacrificing my sensitive gut, and I don’t have any guilt whatsoever for eating cake for breakfast.

No gluten, grains, dairy, refined sugars, canola or seed oils, preservatives, or general crap that normally go into cake. Just quality wholefood ingredients, and love ❤️

What makes this the queen 👸🏻 of all cupcakes?

Aside from the delicious cake itself made with freshly ground almonds, honey, cacao, coconut oil, almond milk, eggs, and cherries, it features a heart of cashew cherry cream and just a touch of cherry jam. Topped with an indulgent dark chocolate ganache and fresh berries, the result is an explosion 💥 of flavour that leaves both your heart and soul truly satisfied. No gluten, no dairy, no refined sugar, no canola or seed oils, no s**t 💩.

For those asking, yes I’m still making cakes for regular customers but I’m not yet at full capacity. I’m patiently waiting for my precious van Kiki to be repaired before I get back out there.
This time away from my business has shown me how much I love it and I can’t wait to see your smiling faces again 😍

From airport meals to home cooked treats and food festivals; gf eating is easy in Sicily

20/09/2025

Though the big cities are exciting and full of history, it’s the smaller towns where you find the most delicious treats (and where they don’t charge through the nose). Here’s a snippet of one day spent in a village called Caposele where we drank water straight from the underground spring; this water has healing properties and is always at 8-9°. I’ve never tasted water that cold or that fresh before. Then we went to the Saint Gerardo sanctuary where they sell goods typical from that region; cheeses, peppers, various grains and beans, chestnuts, pine nuts, etc and the most delicious amaretti biscuits I’ve tasted which are made with hazelnuts, sugar and eggs.
For lunch my auntie, Zia Pierina, made us ravioli and tagliatelle by hand. Inside each raviolo there was fresh ricotta, mint, eggs, grated cheese and salt. The pasta itself was the perfect texture; It’s nothing like dried ravioli. The salsa for the sauce was of course homemade passata that had been cooked with pork ribs and veal, and red wine (and onions that are removed once they’ve been fried a little, just for the taste). Here they eat the pasta first, with the salsa on top, then they remove the meat from sauce and have that as the second course. It is so full of flavour and so tender, it falls off the bone (sorry, no pic as I was too busy eating it). In the evening we were treated to a night out at a local bar where they served plate after plate of delicious high quality food. Sheep’s milk cheeses served with honey, and cold meats that melted in your mouth. There was a lot more than in these pics but they weren’t gf so I’m not including them.
All in all, I can say that when it comes to food, Italians don’t muck around.

More gf eating in Italy but vegetarians look away now…
Florence’s most famous meat dish: the Florentine steak (Bistecca alla Fiorentina) comes from huge cows only found in this region of Italy. They are the size of a horse which is why the steaks are so huge. We enjoyed a selection of meats from the Mercato Centrale (central market) which was a better price than the eateries, and Eden had his steak in a local’s Trattoria we found near the Uffizi Gallery. It was cooked perfectly and was delicious. We went back to that market last night to get a huge amount of roast chicken that came with salad, and very tasty rice, roast potatoes and corn on the cob, all cooked on an open grill. Again, great value and yum.
Keep your receipt so you can scan the code to visit the toilet for free (otherwise it costs 1€).
There are vegetarian and vegan options in the market, a brewery, a cooking school, and lots of dessert options as well (not really anything gf apart from gelato).
This market has two floors and when the lower stalls are closed, lots of tourists think the market is closed because they can’t read the signs telling them to go upstairs. My years of Saturday school (wog school) to learn italian are coming in handy 😜

GF snacking in Italy 🇮🇹
Whilst it’s fresh in my mind and I have some time (on the train rn from Florence to Naples), let me explain a couple things in case you’re travelling to Italy and don’t want to waste money on overpriced food.
ALWAYS buy your snacks from a supermarket. The larger chains even have full ready to go bowls you can eat picnic style.
Supermarket water, for example, costs 30c-60c instead of 3,50€ per bottle. The word Bio means Organic, and there is usually a Senza Glutine (gf) section in most supermarkets. And yes that is a packet of individually wrapped Grana Padano cheese. The fruit nectar (I can’t get enough of these) is without added sugar (senza zuccheri aggiunti). And the grapes here actually taste like grapes, with seeds, the way they’re supposed to be.
This is an inexpensive way to have a nourishing snack whilst on the go because we’ve found that EVERYTHING in Europe costs a lot more than expected because our dollar is so very weak. We are basically doubling every price we see.
