Lorna is my husband’s grandfather Theo’s sister. Lorna left some great recipes for the next generation. This is one of them, and I have been wanting to try it. Today I finally made it, but again I had to halve the recipe because her recipe was for her large family. I added some Sugar because …
My ‘Coffee Panna Cotta with Kahlúa’ has become popular. Then I decided to make Tea Flavoured Panna Cotta. I used the fragrant Earl Grey Tea which I love, and 1/2 Milk and 1/2 Cream for lighter texture. The fragrance of Earl Grey in the Panna Cotta is quite subtle. You need Earl Grey Tea Syrup …

‘Choc Ripple Log Cake’ made with Arnott’s Choc Ripple Biscuits is an Australian favourite cake that even children can make themselves if they can whip cream.
