Tänä vuonna olen kokeillut erikoisruokavaliolle sopivia Runebergin torttuja. Näitä mainioita herkkuja olen leiponut jo pari kertaa sillä luottoreseptini muokkautui helposti vaihtamalla vain ainekset gluteenittomiksi ja vegaanisiksi! Alkuperäinen resepti on myllynparas.fi sivuilta. 200 g margariinia 1-2 dl (fariini)sokeria 2 tl Orgran No Egg kananmunankorviketta sekoitettuna n 1/2 dl:aan vettä 2 dl gluteenittomia jauhoja yhteensä 4 dl… Continue reading Gluteeniton ja vegaaninen Runebergin torttu, Runeberg cake “free from” version

Ellenin suukkoja, Ellen’s cookies
This is a transformation from cake (from this earlier post) to cookie. The combination of chewy almond meringue and coffee buttercream works beautifully in this form too. These delicious confections might not look as tempting but they surpass any silky, pastel coloured macaron I've ever tasted! * Ellen Svinhufvud kakun resepti taipuu loistavasti pienten täytettyjen… Continue reading Ellenin suukkoja, Ellen’s cookies
Ellen Svinhufvud kakku, coffee meringue cake
Layers of almond meringue with a coffee flavoured buttercream filling make up this fabulous cake. It was my choice for our wedding cake years back and this summer I decided to try to make it myself for a big summer party. Quite a success 🙂 I found the recipe on the net site of a… Continue reading Ellen Svinhufvud kakku, coffee meringue cake
Raparperi bébéet, rhubarb buttercream pastries
This is my attempt to combine rhubarb, a big favourite of mine, with a classic Finnish buttercream pastry called "Bébé", which I also love. The Bébé has been around for at least a century - I found the recipe in an old cook book of mine from 1922 🙂 * Bébé-leivos on valintani kahvilan kakkutiskillä.… Continue reading Raparperi bébéet, rhubarb buttercream pastries
Aleksanterinleivokset, Alexander cake
This traditional Alexander cake's history goes back to the beginning of the 19th century; the name originates from a pastry cooked up for tsar Alexander I, then Imperial Grand Prince of Finland. Since those times it's been an essential part of every Finnish confectioner's assortment! Little wonder since they're easy to make for a bigger crowd… Continue reading Aleksanterinleivokset, Alexander cake
Runeberginkakku, Runeberg time
Tänä vuonna tein Runebergit kuivakakkumuottiin. Samalla ohjeella kuin vuosi sitten, paistoaika vain tuplaantuin noin 45:een minuuttiin. Kostuketta ei tarvita mutta pieni Amaretto-likööritilkka ei huonontanut kakkua lainkaan 😉 Resepti on alun perin Myllyn Paras -sivuilta, minun tuunauksin. * This year I made the Runeberg cake into a round cake mould instead of the traditional little round… Continue reading Runeberginkakku, Runeberg time
Gingerbread miniatures, pipari pienoismalleja
I've had time to finish the gingerbread house. The rose bushes now have stems, a little box wood hedge surrounds the terrace and more barrels await handling outside the back door. I also had to try out if I could make a little directors chair to go under my sun shade. It took some wiggling… Continue reading Gingerbread miniatures, pipari pienoismalleja
Coffee cheesecake, kahvijuustokakku
A wintery cheesecake flavoured with coffee and cardamom is coated with a coffee syrup that brings back memories of the little coffee bean sweets of my childhood. Recipe in English further down... * Juustokakkuun tuli ihana talvinen makuyhdistelmä poikani ehdotuksesta: kahvia ja kardemummaa. Siitä tuli niin hyvää että se pääsi uudelleen tarjolle uudenvuoden illalliselle. Kastikkeeseen… Continue reading Coffee cheesecake, kahvijuustokakku
Carsin revisited
Managed to get some better shots of the gingerbread Château Carsin yesterday. The sunshade is glued together from three pieces of gingerbread, one T and two C shapes, with a thin piece of sugarpaste for the shade. There are two really heavy wooden tables on the terrace and a lemon tree in a big flower… Continue reading Carsin revisited
Gingerbread château, Château Pipari

Carsinilla onkin erityinen syy juhlia sillä tilan viinejä juodaan Suomen 100-vuotisjuhlien… Continue reading Gingerbread château, Château Pipari
