This chocolate bread was just one of the happy results of attending a masterclass on chocolate with Gerard Coleman of Artisan du Chocolat at the Dublin Cookery School
Spud Sunday: Defender Of The Spud
Meet a bakewell tart which includes some mashed potato in the mix for moistness – it’s not as daft a proposition as it might sound.
Go East, Young Carrot Cake
With pistachios, dates, cardamom and a lime drizzle, this carrot cake recipe is full of eastern promise

Spud Sunday: When Potato Met Apple
Potato apple parcels – mini apple tarts made with a potato pastry. Like all the best couples, it’s a combination that was meant to be.
