Every occasion deserves a good and cute dessert. This one is pretty pretty cute if you ask me! Vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream frosting, yummy.

I rarely do dairy free baking just because we don’t mind dairies. But I have a friend who just had a baby and I wanted to drop a little snack for the mama who can’t eat lactose. So here I got… A delicious dairy free banana bread with big chunks of chocolate.

Those shortbreads are absolutely perfect with the afternoon tea. The almond powder makes them very fluffy and the lime zest gives in a nice fresh taste. You can easily store them in an airtight container for a few days but… you probably won’t.

Last week I posted a how-to make your own powdered almond. Here is what I did with mine ; a delicious pear almond tart. Deliciously generous and so satisfying. I love this dessert…

Almonds are far from being a cheap product and almond powder is even worse for the budget! But it is delicious in dessert… I love frangipane!
