This pie has been quite the project. We began working on it last year for my birthday in January and only now , a year later, I can finally say we did it: a vegan and gluten free lemon meringue pie. We have had to deal with terrible crusts, aquafaba that tasted like kitchen soap, and a filling that was way too sweet, lumpy, and did not actually stay in the pie when you cut a slice. But now the time has finally come: a not terrible version you can actually make!
Read MoreTo be completely honest with you, I absolutely love kitsch. More so than I love white and minimalism. But even in my own home I go for light colours, only to then ask myself why I ever thought that was a good idea with three pets running around the house and me being the queen of getting chocolate stains absolutely everywhere. But, yes, I usually go for light colours and would describe the style of Food Bandits as “cake on marble”. But now the time has finally come for me to finally use my one true love: edible glitter.

I think we must have tried out at least ten versions of this cake, but in the end, right at the moment we had decided to give up if this one didn’t work either, we succeeded. T
Read MoreWhoa alweer het einde van onze kerst reeks met recepten. Ik hoop dat je inmiddels al je menu rond hebt waarbij je niet te lang in de keuken hoeft te staan of eerst 35455555 supermarkten hoef te bezoeken. Er is tenslotte niks mis met een lekkere pizza en zolang het een beetje gezellig is met kerst heb je al een fijne dag te pakken. Johann en ik hebben wel eens wat friet in de oven gegooid, een spuuglelijke joggingbroek aan gedaan en een stapel dvd's gekeken. Was een zeer ontspannen kerst kan ik je vertellen.
Read MoreEton Mess of zoals Nigella het noemt: 'massamoord in een sneeuwstorm' is wat mij betreft het ultieme kerst dessert waar het niet alleen de drank ontbreekt. Waar normaal Eton mess wordt gemaakt met meringues en opgeklopte slagroom hebben wij een vegan versie voor je ontwikkeld. De meringues kun je een dag van te voren maken en waar misschien de drank ontbreekt maakt het fijn knijpen van de meringues weer een hoop goed.
