Carmen, whom you know from Yerbabuena en la Cocina, brings us a classic of French pastry that has become popular worldwide. As she says, the tarte Tatin is the queen of apple pies. Delicate, full of flavor and, contrary to what it may seem, very easy to prepare!

Carolina, author of La Cocina de Carolina, brings us a sweet recipe you can make without guilt: this chocolate mousse, made with an avocado base, is easy to prepare, light, and very tasty!

A very special day is approaching, Three Kings' Day. It is special for children, because of the gifts the three Wise Men will have left them; and special for the family, since many take the opportunity to celebrate together that day. And on that table there will be no lack of desserts — a traditional roscón de Reyes!

I still remember the surprise I felt when a very dear relative showed up with three huge packages. And to my greater surprise, it was a Set that I loved: it was the WMF Maya the Bee cutlery Set. I’m not talking about just anything: a ceramic Set with beautiful prints, the cutlery made of very good-quality steel, and all the pieces an ideal size for children.

Last week Virginia, author of Sweet&Sour, gave us an introduction to jams and preserves, explaining the differences between jams, preserves and jellies, and showing us how to make them.

Carolina, author of the food blog La Cocina de Carolina, offers us a recipe that will captivate many: some of you will be eager to make it right away, and so many others will be eager to try it! Whether you're among the first or the second, enjoy it!

What's more tempting than enjoying seasonal fruits in a delicious tart? Today Eva, author of Bake-Street, brings us a recipe that will encourage you to go out and pick wild berries and peaches to make it. Because yes, this tart is as delicious as it looks!

Making desserts at home is rewarding, as well as delicious and, I must admit, really addictive! Even more so when you discover how easy it can be to make recipes as delicious as the one Virginia, author of the blog Sweet&Sour, brings us today. You will love this chocolate cream dessert.

Since the warm weather arrived, Beatriz, author of To Be Gourmet, has enjoyed making delicious ice creams. She also enjoys eating them, because natural, freshly made ice creams at home have many advantages, starting with how good they taste.

Beatriz, author of the blog To Be Gourmet, brings us a recipe made with a utensil I was very eager to show you. It’s a small popsicle maker that we keep in the freezer to use whenever we want to make homemade popsicles. Its use is extremely simple: you only need to put in the ingredients and in a few minutes the ice creams are ready to eat. Beatriz has prepared on this occasion some delicious ice creams with very natural ingredient. Would you like to try?

For those of us who enjoy contrasts, the tartness of red berries combined with the sweetness of chocolate is an excellent pairing. Placed on a puff pastry base, it makes a finger-licking tart. This is the recipe Carmen, from Yerbabuena en la cocina, shares in the post you'll find on her blog.

We already talked a few weeks ago about naked cakes (if you missed it, be sure to check the post where I talked about the return to the traditional cake). Then Rosa, author of Pemberley Cup&Cakes, showed us an example of one, a red berry cake that was a hit. Given the great reception, today she brings us another naked cake, which I would bet you'll love just by its appearance.
