While waiting to see the new year in let me share this amazing cake with you. It was recommended to me by my friend Janet, who is the unrivalled queen of all cakes, puddings and desserts. Well, I tried it over the Christmas holidays and was really impressed with it. So thank you Janet! The good thing about it is that it’s fat free as well as gluten free. That’s right: no butter or flour! How great is that? And yet it’s so moist and flavoursome. Just think how many “difficult” friends you can cater for with this one.

Obviously you don’t have to make the ice cream to go with it. I did it as I had some leftover Christmas pudding. I confess it’s a doddle for me as I’m the proud owner of a Gaggia ice cream maker which Candi gave me many many years ago. It is still working and it makes some wonderful ice cream.

Lucina & Candi
Do you love food? Do you ever swap recipes with your friends? We do and now we want to share them with other people too (note the rhyme)! This blog has been set up by Candi and Lucina, two Italian friends with a passion for cooking now living in two separate countries (Italy and England).
English & Italiano
In order to reach as many friends as possible on both sides of the Channel (and beyond) we have decided to write in both languages. The order of the day is to share good, wholesome recipes without any of the faff! Without faff?! Senza tante menate! Let's improve our English by cooking o migliora il tuo italiano cucinando.
