I think my ‘Coffee Panna Cotta’ is pretty delicious, but it would be difficult to beat this ‘Coffee Bavarois’ which has superior flavour and texture. The ingredients of Panna Cotta and Bavarois are almost identical, but this Bavarois is made with Egg Yolks. It’s easy to make, at leat my recipe is easy. Makes 4 …
My ‘Super Easy No-bake Cheesecake’ is literally SUPER EASY. You only need basic ingredients, BUT you must use full-fat Cream Cheese and Thickened Cream (OR Heavy Cream). This ‘Cream Cheese Mousse’ is almost identical to the Cheesecake, but you can use fat-reduced light type products because the mixture should be set in the serving glasses …
My 1-cup-capacity Ramekins are slightly too large for my Creme Brûlée recipe. Today I added 1 cup pureed Pumpkin. The amount of a serve was perfect for my ramekin and Creme Brûlée was very yellow. Fortunately OR unfortunately, you won’t taste Pumpkin very much. Makes 4 Servings Ingredients 1 cup pureed Cooked Pumpkin *smoothly pureed1/4 …
You don’t know ‘Lemon Posset’? The origin of this super easy but underrated dessert is an English hot drink ‘Posset’. Lady Macbeth used ‘Posset’ to poison the guards in the famous William Shakespeare’s ‘Macbeth’. The drink evolved into desserts over the centuries and this ‘Lemon Posset’ became popular more than 100 years ago. You only …
If you are familiar with Arnott’s Choc Ripple Biscuits, you probably know ‘Choc Ripple Log Cake’. The very dry biscuits turn into moist chocolate cake when covered with whipped Cream. This dessert is the same thing, but I added Raspberry Sauce to it. It is easiest to set all ingredients in the serving glasses. Makes …
When I cook Rice Bowl dishes, I tend to season with Soy Sauce. Today I didn’t use Soy Sauce at all. The creamy sauce is seasoned with Salt & Pepper. It’s very simple, yet so delicious because of the flavour from the Garlic Prawns. It was a brilliant idea to add soft scrambled Egg to …
I occasionally purchase Sweetened Chestnut Paste. The purpose is to make ‘Mont Blanc Cake’, which has a very special meaning to me. Today I found some leftover Chestnut Paste that needed to be used as the best before date was near. I mixed it with my ‘Easiest Vanilla Ice Cream’ mixture to make this Ice …
Coffee lovers would enjoy this coffee flavoured Panna Cotta. This recipe is almost identical to my Panna Cotta recipe. I simply replaced 1/2 of Milk with 1/2 cup strong Espresso.

I tried to make Azuki flavoured Panna Cotta. I mixed Panna Cotta mixture with Tsubu-an (Sweet Azuki Paste). It was supposed to be a creamy burgundy coloured jelly, but the mixture set in such a pretty gradation of colour because Azuki Paste is heavy, especially the unbroken beans are heavy. Unfortunately it is hard to …
I have a super easy Ice Cream recipe ‘Azuki Ice Cream’. The ingredients are Tsubu-an (Sweet Azuki Paste) and Thickened Cream. I made this ‘Pumpkin Ice Cream’ in the same way.

I was a uni student when I first ate the delicious Fruit Sandwich. It was an ordinary sandwich made with Japanese Milk Bread and the filling of whipped cream and fruit. I had never had such a combination before. As Japanese Milk Bread is impossible to find where I live now, I use Brioche Loaf. …
This cake is very popular in the region in Japan where I grew up. I have never made it as I always bought it from stores. When my children were young, we lived there for a short period of time, and my children fell in love with this cake. It’s a very simple cake consisting …
Japanese Soufflé Cheesecake needs to be steam baked using a water bath. The batter is simple to make, but it’s tricky to keep the right temperature for the perfect result. Today I was just curious to find out what would happen if I cook it in my rice cooker, as I know Rice Cooker is …
I am a big fan of Jelly Desserts and I often make them. The standard ratio of Gelatine Powder & Liquid is 2g (1/2 teaspoon) : 100ml. I make Jelly based on this ratio. This is my basic Yoghurt Mousse Jelly, which has fairly firm texture if you use Greek Yoghurt. You can add some …
