I’m a scientist who loves to bake, and here is where I document my adventures. Maybe you’ll learn a thing a two. Thanks for being here!
All in Ice Cream
Cool, refreshing, and perfectly sweet, these popsicles are a great way to cool off this summer.
Toasted marshmallow ice cream sandwiched between two chocolate graham crackers. Basically s'mores and ice cream sandwiches had a baby. A DELICIOUS baby.
Creamy Greek Yogurt Popsicles swirled with roasted strawberries and roasted blueberries.
Ice cream made with roasted balsamic strawberries for a sophisticated and tangy twist on strawberry ice cream. This creamy ice cream starts off tangy from the balsamic vinegar and finishes of sweet with the taste of strawberries. It's creamy, dreamy, and delicious. It puts a nice little grown-up twist on the classic strawberry ice cream.
With the summer coming to an end, and a new school year approaching, this cake feels right. It's the big summer send-off. The Ice Cream Social before the school year. Did anyone else do those as a kid?
It's one of those desserts where you get to dive in, head-first, and indulge. Forget the bikinis, skinny jeans, and tank tops. We're headed towards oversized sweaters, and stretchy pants. You deserve to pull out all the stops, and so does this cake.
A few days ago it rained here. In California. In August. What's going on? Rain in the summer might be a normal thing in other places but not here. I'm not complaining though. Waking up to the smell of rained on sidewalks is my favorite thing to wake up to. The quick glimpse of cooler weather and a soft breeze gave me a craving for some autumn commodities.
Since wearing a scarf and boots while it's still over 100 degrees isn't appropriate, I took the logical course of action. Popsicles!
Let's talk about peanut butter and jelly, okay?
Classic combination.
Sweet and salty / creamy and delicious / childhood memories... need I say more?
Blackberries were on sale, so I made blackberry ice cream. Naturally.
I've made so much ice cream this summer, you wouldn't believe me if I told you how much. Over 10 gallons! Don't believe me? I told you you wouldn't.
Chocolate cake layered with vanilla coconut ice cream, chocolate sauce, coconut and chopped Almond Joy candies.
Good lighting makes me happy.
I'm far from calling myself a "food photographer", but I feel like each new recipe I shoot I am learning more and getting a little bit better. I think I enjoy the photo-taking just as much, if not more, than the baking! It's definitely the creativity.
Carmel-Swirled Vanilla Ice Cream with Chocolate Covered Pretzels. WHEW! Try saying that 10 times fast! While it sounds complicated, this ice cream is far from it.
Just a simple (yet delectable) vanilla ice cream, with crushed up chocolate covered pretzels mixed in, and layered in carmel syrup! Sweet and salty, chocolate and vanilla-y, pretzel and carmel-y.... UMM YUM!
