A brilliant cake for a birthday!

Dad’s amazing chocolate panna cotta cake.

Apple strudels for the whole family to make and enjoy.

This is based on an Erdbeer-Biskuit-Kuchen recipe from a German fruit flan cookbook. I was given the book during a recent trip to Germany by our hosts during ‘Kaffee und Kuchen’ (traditional coffee and cake social just after lunch).

Inspired by the ricotta tarts made in Naples at Easter.

Experiment with white berries, to be honest, I didn’t know what they were on my travels to Borough Market! Either way they made a yummy white currant tart!
