Delicious Date Squares
Kate and I just love the Date Squares at Sorelle, one of our favourite allergy-safe restaurants in Toronto. We decided to try to make our own at home and the results were FABULOUS! This is one of those things you may never have thought of making yourself but they’re truly […]
Dairy-free Chocolate Fudge
This is always a crowd pleaser! So decadent and delicious! If you’re allergic to peanuts or tree nuts but can have soy, I recommend using Wow Butter (Soy Butter). If you cannot have soy but can tolerate tree nuts or peanuts use your favourite nut butter (peanut, almond, etc.). You […]
Homemade Chocolates!
Making your own chocolates is oh so easy and FUN! For this batch you may be surprised to see that I’m using nuts (pistachios)! This is because Kate is actually starting to eat small doses of nuts as part of her food allergy treatments through The Southern California Food Allergy […]

Bliss is Found in the Simplest of Pleasures! This time it’s Coconut Bliss!
Going for ice cream is so common-place for many families when summer hits or when on vacation. It’s a regular outing for many families…and one that we enjoyed often until all of a sudden we had a child with dairy and nut allergies who couldn’t have it. My son lamented […]
Dairy-Free Lemon “Buttercream” Birthday Cake
My allergy girl celebrated her 1st birthday not with the typical Chocolate Cake and accompanying adorable messy-faced photos that most do… she had strawberry-rhubarb pie. We just didn’t know at that time how to give a kid with dairy, egg and nut allergies a proper birthday cake! Kate HATES strawberries!!! […]
Allergy-Safe Cake & Cupcake Recipe
All I can say is… THANK GOD for this cake recipe! My friend Wendy shared this recipe with me when Kate was very young. Her husband has dairy and nut allergies and she was my saviour passing this recipe on to me. She calls it “Whacky Cake”. It’s also egg […]
