Easy & Delicious Vegan Chocolate Cake With Chocolate Frosting

September 26, 2020 by Izabela

Did someone say chocolate cake! This recipe has been my go-to for a couple of years and it is originally created by Gretchen Price in her Modern Vegan Baking cook book. If you haven't visited her website, you just must- she makes the most amazing creations! If you asked me what flavor of cake is my favourite I would usually say vanilla but THIS chocolate cake is incredibly delicious and paired with the right filling (think chocolate, cookie butter, coconut, peanut butter!) it is really out of this world! I've adapted the recipe to be able to create 3 x 6" cake layers but you can easily fill 2 x 9" pans with the same amount of batter and get some really nice tall layers of chocolate ...

Vegan Chocolate Candy Cups

April 8, 2020 by Izabela

Easter is just around the corner and as a relatively new vegan in Canada, there aren't very many vegan chocolate or candy options around without costing an arm and a leg! If you're like me and like finding "accidentally" vegan products then you're in luck with these vegan chocolate candy cups! Now, there is a way to make these completely certified vegan, but can we be real for a second? A lot of the products out there that have this certification are a bit on the pricier side- and while I do prefer to support these growing businesses, I do like to create my own recipes using non-specialty items from time to time! These vegan chocolate candy cups are sooo customizable- you can ...

Chocolate Coconut Power Balls

January 21, 2020 by Izabela

Chocolate Coconut Power Balls- I bet you won’t be able to stop at one!! These nuggets of goodness are packed with the good stuff and are refined sugar free meaning you can snack knowing it’s actually good for you!  I’ve always wanted to create a power ball that tastes more like a truffle than a health food and I think I #nailedit with this one! The addition of cocoa powder boosts up the chocolatey profile and the maple syrup adds the perfect touch of sweetness! You may also like these posts powered by Choices- click here and here! Quick cook oats add density to the bite while the banana maintains its moisture so it forms into a ball easily! The coconut and peanut butter are ...

Last year I wanted to release my photo presets for lifestyle and food photography. But then self doubt creeped in and I was like... does anyone even want these?! 😆😆😆
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I love a mix of warm imagery with contrast to highlight the colors and cooler tones that brighten so these presets are a combination of the two. If you struggle with dark lighting there is one for indoor shots too!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If you like editing photos or are in the food industry and struggle with editing images- these Lightroom presets may be good for you!
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I’d love to know if you’d be interested! Let me know below 🤍📸

Your little Wednesday afternoon pick me up. 💐
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Friends, yesterday I had a hard day. I felt like a complete failure. 🥺 I wasn’t going to post about it but then I realized I don’t always want to show up to my Instagram
Family as if things are always perfect. They aren’t. In fact they’re probably more imperfect times than actual perfect ones. 😂
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I write this as a reminder to myself that hard moments do exist and they pass and I can get through them. Maybe you are in that same boat right now too. I’m hanging on to the thought that I am where I wanted to be a few years ago and that good things are just around the corner. We’ve just got to keep going. 🤍
