Without a doubt, crêpes are a marvelous invention. That's why they get their well-deserved recognition on International Crêpe Day. These red fruit crêpes combine two things I love: crêpes on one hand, and on the other, a perfect mix of strawberries, blueberries, currants and raspberries, with just the right amount of sugar to slightly mellow the pleasant tartness of the red fruits. A delight!

Crêpes Suzette are a true classic of French pastry, one of those desserts that surprise with their simplicity and at the same time how special they are (and super, super delicious!). They are paper-thin crêpes drenched in an irresistible sauce of butter, sugar, orange juice and a touch of liqueur.

Today I'm excited to share a little piece of French cuisine that steals hearts: the French recipe for crepe batter. And the best part is that it arrives just in time to celebrate International Crepe Day!

Ebelskivers are small Danish dough balls (originating from Denmark) that are cooked in a special pan with round compartments.

If there’s one thing that makes a holiday traditional in my house, it’s bringing to the table some filled wafer rolls or "neulas", as we always call them at home. We love them! They are never missing from the Christmas and Easter table, and we bring them out after dessert, alongside the turrones or tea cookies, at coffee time. They’re a perfect sweet bite to finish the meal, and they’re very easy to make at home!

If crepes are a true indulgence, these blueberry swirl crepes are an absolute delight. Perfect because they’re simple to make, they’re as tasty as they are charming. Bring them to the table and they disappear from the plate!

Often we look for a companion as juicy as it is delicious to go with crepes and waffles, and this blueberry sauce I bring you today takes very few minutes to make, and it’s delicious.

It’s also perfect for filling or decorating cakes, for sponge cakes and bundt cakes, or for your cupcakes and muffins:

If you like lemon flavor and enjoy baking, lemon curd will surely fit perfectly into your kitchen. Lemon curd, or lemon cream, is a typical English cream. Its color tends to be a more intense yellow than pastry cream, it has a creamy but light texture and a noticeable, tasty lemon flavor.

The dehydrator is useful for much more than making dried fruit chips for a snack or dehydrating onion, garlic, mushrooms and aromatic herbs to always have them on hand for your stews. With this recipe for dehydrated banana and cocoa crepes I hope to shed light on the possibilities offered by the air dehydrator, and of course I hope you enjoy breakfasts that are healthy, energizing, and delicious.

These mascarpone waffles with cherry compote that I bring you today are not to be missed! They are delicious waffles that will undoubtedly make you fall in love. I think it’s a great way to debut the new heart-shaped waffle maker we brought from the United States, from the hands of Nordci Ware. It’s so pretty!
