Recipes published here, will try to conform to the following criteria:
-Easy to create or bake.
-Will be nutritious, wholesome and healthy as well as economical too.
- Will be varied and inventive, mostly created by me.
-Occasionally I will treat you to some indulgent ones. But just as a treat. lol :)

Sounds heavenly, love the almonds on top here!
This truly looks divine! I always like to serve a small and decadent taste of a dessert after a fine dinner.
In reality this was an excellent mousse, I only surpassed it yesterday when I used one extra egg white.
So 5 Star I am super happy whit you having loved this one, and appreciated our comments, kisses xxxx
Sophie, you know I value your input greatly, I had a teacher,s exam today I was micro-teaching ...I tough to make mousse, it was a great success.. thanks for comment and visit kisses xxx
Although decadent this one is not too bad as I use elmlee which has I believe 1/3 less fat and also use whipped egg white which allows for usage of less cream, so the taste is still full but less calories and fat..thanks for you comment loved it..kisses xxx
Rico... Great song! Your mousse sounds incredible and delicious. I look forward to reading through more of your creative post.
Thank you George, for your generous comment about my singing as well as on the mousse...I just wish my singing was as good as my mousse lol...but for an amateur I suppose is acceptable. thank you so much appreciated...take care :)
Looks lovely, but extra wonderful with the almonds on top!
Just want you to know this is my favorite song to date.... amazing you have this on your site.....not bad for what you call an amateur,..

pegasuslegend, Thank you ever so much for noticing, I think I have made a better one as I am improving all the time, but I still need to place it on youtube...but like I said I am an amateur (so I don't fool myself) luv ya kisses
Ana P, you right sweet and decadent, but note with only half the calories as used less cream and substituted with egg white also used elmlea which has 1/3 less fat than cream yay now you can be decadent without guilt hehe luv ya kisses xxx
