Recipe tips

It’s often the small details that make the biggest impact in the kitchen, so we’re sharing the tips we rely on when cooking and creating recipes

Instead of lime and mint you can use ½ cup roasted and chopped hazelnuts. Decorate the cakes with whole hazelnuts and place them in the middle of the oven. Dip in melted dark chocolate.
