What is your favourite sweet treat? I have so many as I am quite a sweet tooth but at the moment I am craving home made turkish delight ice cream with fairy floss shavings! Wouldn't have a clue how to make it but I have it at this little cafe in Hobart sometimes and it is to die for!

Im addicted to lollipops right now ! Anytype, it doesnt matter ! :chuckle:
I go through phases of what I like. Last week it was hot chocolate !

No one is going to believe me but I am not really a choc person. Only crave it when I am menstual otherwise give me a sugary lolly anytime! (Same goes for choc cake - how can you guys eat it? I get stomach pains thinking about how rich it is!)

Oh dear, where do I start? Ok, love Whiz Fizz (except the part where I get it all over myself!), lolly bananas, choc eclair lollies, red bullets, turkish delight, fairy floss (have some fancy Persian Floss in Pistachio in the cupboard!), Pez lollies (no I dont carry a character dispenser!), Menthos and anything sour!

Am I only allowed to name one??? Argh, I can't do it. I have a terrible, terrible sweet tooth. Makes a lot of money for my dentist. I'll do a top five even though it hurts me (to the cavity ha ha):

Lindt 70% dark chocolate.
Butterfinger candy bars. I got hooked on them in the US.
The humble bag of mixed lollies. Back in my day it only cost 30 cents...
Sara Lee Strawberries & Cream ice cream.
Pancakes, pancakes and more pancakes. Yum!

In the fruit department it's mangos and figs, especially figs.

PCC after reading about your turkish delight ice cream with fairy floss shavings I am now craving to try it ! LOL :chuckle:

Luisa, I to also love sour things. You can get these little tins of sour cranberry lollies from some supermarkets that are just fantastic. Yum !

All this talk of sweet things is making my mouth water ! :glee:

I am a lolly fan rather than a choccy fan but I do like choccy. I think I am craving all these sweet things because I am living on healthy food at the moment so I am undoubtedly detoxing (thanks doctors). I wonder how long I can last without cheating!

Hey RBB, the mixed lollies cost a lot less in my younger years!

Where do you get butterfingers? I was thinking of you the other day when I read that Reece now has their Peanut Butter cups in a sugar free variety (didnt say anything about fat free though!

Just letting you all know it was a bad idea starting this thread. I apologise! Making me crave sugar like nothing else. What are peanut butter cups and where the heck can I get some?

The lolly bananas in the mixed lollies are my favourites too. Just love that synthetic taste!

You can get Butterfingers from some chocolate speciality shops. Funny how you remembered my Reece's compulsion. It's the mix of salty and sweet, gets me every time. A sugar-free variety, huh? That's no fun - more sugar I say!

Just letting you all know it was a bad idea starting this thread. I apologise! Making me crave sugar like nothing else. What are peanut butter cups and where the heck can I get some?

PCC they're milk chocolate cups with a sweet/salty peanut butter filling. You can get them in most supermarkets, and they come in packs of two or in a larger pack of little Reece's Pieces. I say as soon as you come off the detox, make them your first sugar of choice!

Speaking of Sugar I just love the Melbourne chain of Suga shops. I love their choc filled Tia Maria and Passion fruit rock in particular.

Pavlova! Can't go past it. I just made one yesterday, we ate it for lunch today - although there is one leftover piece that is calling my name :ashamed:

Theres a great lolly shop in the The Rocks in Sydney called Sticky. They make all the lollies on premises in front of you. They have great flavours like Toffee Apple and Pink Lemonade. There has to be at least 100 + flavours. They even make personalised lollies too. The lollies are the old fashioned hard boiled kind.

Sounds great Elizabeth! Must put it on the list for the next time I visit Sydney. There are lots of good little shops in The Rocks to re-discover, I reckon.

When we were in the US last year we visited Savannah, Georgia - it was sweet-shop heaven. The city's famous treat is the praline - not the crushed caramel kind; a fudgey, creamy pecan-loaded treat. They make them fresh while you watch. The smell nearly drives you insane. And they're chock-full of goodness. Bascially cream, sugar and pecans - all the food groups! :clapping:

I have to stop reading this thread - it's making me put on virtual kilos!

Sounds like the Suga stores here. You can get words inside, they look great and the flavours are sensational. Always worth a trip!

The personalised ones are apparently popular with weddings. You can get them to say JOHN LUVS JANE, or anything really. Good Valentines Day pressy to I think !

The company I work for gets personalised mints done there with the company logo and name.

Heres the website : www.sticky.com.au

They have something similar in Perth its called Roc Candy, and you can get the words inside it - they make it right in front of you. We went to a wedding once and the bride and groom had their names inside them.

I'm a big ice cream lover, don't get into the lollies and choccie too much unless its that time of the month. My health kick is teaching me to resist and therefore I don't crave! (unless its ice cream)

Chocolate and more chocolate!! Looove chocolate. Do not really care much for cakes and lollies.
I Love Haighs Truffles.They have this nice shop in the Block Arcade here in Melbourne.
Yesterday I bought some yummy cherry liqueur choc from Aldi. It is a brandy cherry filling in dark choc.:p

But I usually only have it after dinner. Thats my dessert.

I'm totally addicted to Cheesecake, especially White chocolate raspberry cheesecake - YUM!

Melbournegirl, love Haighs in the Block arcade even though I am not really a chocolate person. You should check out Koko Black in Lygon St - amazing!

I actually love the cherry liqueur thingies - must be the brandy! Lol!:dunce:

I could scoff a whole box of Ferraro Rochers :p
I love chocolate esp. dark choc.
I love Pez too but I can never eat just one, end up pouring the whole packe into mouth! Gave up on the dispensers, too tricky.
Also love those tiny pink musks from Darrell Lea, but again I can't help but to eat them by the handfuls. :redcheeks:

LB if you love sherbet, try making it yourself. I just made some for a party to sprinkle over fruit. Its too easy.
2 Tablespoons Icing Sugar
1/4 teaspoon Citric Acid
1/4 teaspoon Bicarb soda
1 teaspoon jelly crystals.
Sift it all together, mix.
Make sure everything is very dry any moisture will start the chemical reaction & fizz.

I am the BIGGEST lolly addict! I love redskins and wizz fizz! I also REALLY love Cadbury Creme Eggs, I crave them all year round and then easter comes...

I'm not a huge chocolate fan but I luuuurrrrvvvveee cakes and tarts and biscuits etc. I adore any kind of sweet baked good with tea. SO delicious. Those are the things I dream about.

Ohh I love Suga in Melb and Sticky in Syd! We don't have any shops like that up here in Bris, so my girlfriend in Melb sends me Suga occasionally, or I stock up when I'm down visiting!:p

Am a HUGE Maltesers fan. :rollthoseeyes:

When we have the 'sugar run' here at work, I'm a fan of
Crunchie Freddos
Clinkers
Allens Red Frogs (have to be red!)
Cobbers - the newsagent sells them for 5c each which is great, like the old candy shops!

I made a fabu Custard Cake yesterday - custard in the middle and custard flavoured cake! Yum! Might have to finish it off tonight.. :ashamed:

OHH and peppermint frogs from Haigh's - Melbourne again!

My list really could go on and on.. thank goodness it's raining so I'll have to make do with a cuppa this afternoon!

Medusa,
There is a little Tasmanian place that makes Forerro Roscher ice cream. Its delicious!

Toastie I'm with you on the baked goods. Especially the classics, like gingerbread or a choc-chip cookie. Nothing goes better with a nice hot cup of tea...or cold glass of milk at 2am.

Nattieb, need the custard cake recipe! Medusa, many thanks for yours, it sounds great (and teeth rotting!).

How did we get to three pages of forum in a day? Me thinks we all love our sweet stuff - derr!:redcheeks:

I second the custard cake recipe.

RB - I make an awersome gingerbread cake, do you want the recipe?

I second the custard cake recipe.

RB - I make an awersome gingerbread cake, do you want the recipe?

Yes please! I love gingerbread, the darker and spicier, the better. Post away!

I second the custard cake recipe.

RB - I make an awersome gingerbread cake, do you want the recipe?

Yes please, keep 'em coming Medusa!

Gingerbread
2 cups plain flour
2 teaspoon baking powder
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 cup caster sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup golden syrup
125g butter, melted
3/4 cup boiling water
2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger

Preheat over 180 degrees
Sift flour, baking powder, ginger, cinnamon into a bowl.
Stir in the sugar.
Whisk eggs, golden syrup, butter together in a separate bowl.
Add wet ingrediants to the dry ingrediants.
Mix in the water & fresh ginger.
Pour into baking paper lined cake tin or muffin tray lined with papers.
Bake for 20min or until deep golden & cooked thru.

Just try to resist eating them straight from the oven! :p
If you add more syrup they will be more moist. You can also amp up the spice. If you like you could add chopped dates or banana for an extra dimension.

Oh thank you Medusa, think I can already smell that heavenly aroma...

Thanks Medusa. This is already making my mouth water. Shall be trying it in the next couple of days!

Hi Adoarables! :waving:

Didn't get a chance to log back in last night and have only now seen the requests for the Custard Cake recipe! Will post it up tonight/tomorrow for you all!!

nat

Oh my GOD I am sitting here at my desk practically drooling. I love most sweet stuff - chocolate, lollies, cake, biscuits, ice-cream... Aviv in Glenhuntly Rd in Glen Eira (Melbourne) make the most DELICIOUS cakes ever. I have to get out of this thread because it is nearly lunch time and I do not want to go home to gorge!!

Has anyone been to a Trampoline Ice Cream shop?

Has anyone been to a Trampoline Ice Cream shop?

Mmmmmm! Iced Vo Vo icecream is the BEST and only a short trip down from Kleins Perfumery in Brunswick st....:redcheeks:

I heart Trampoline. Blood Orange is my favourite although Tiramisu is a close second.

I love tiramisu and gelato! - the Italians really do get dessert right.

Have always wanted to try those Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, they sound so good :) I got a recipe book for Christmas full of disgustingly naughty desserts and one of them is Peanut Butter Ice Cream Pie with a Fudgey Marshmallow Sauce and I've been dying to try it for ages!! Sounds so good.

I've only been to Melbourne once (but gosh I loved it, it's got to be the most beautiful city in Australia with all it's gorgeous alleys and old buildings) but I did go to Haigh's Chocalatiers and just stood with my mouth open at all the beautifully made chocolates around me. I'd love to go back if only just to go to that shop again...

Also love the old favourites like a really yummy pecan pie or a bee sting with a steaming cup of coffee or hot chocolate. Reminds me of Nanna :)

Has anyone been to a Trampoline Ice Cream shop?

Yep love it. LOVE it. I like the honeycomb type-ones... and Baci is so good... Mmmmm all of them are so tasty!

Ooooh we could turn this into a sweet-recipe-swapping thread! :chuckle:

I have to admit I don't have many myself, I don't make much in the way of sweets - too dangerous! But that Gingerbread recipe is making my mouth water so I've already printed it out! :clapping:

Mmmmmm! Iced Vo Vo icecream is the BEST
Oh Iced VoVo ice cream! I love those biscuits! :p
That is also a weakness, biscuits. I always buy the ones I don't like for the kids or else I'll scoff the whole packet! :redcheeks:

Custard Cake Recipe

4 tbsp butter or marj
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
3/4 cup SR Flour
1/4 cup custard powder

Custard
1 tbsp custard powder
1 tbsp sugar
2/3 cup milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp butter or marj

Method
Make custard - set aside to cool slightly. Note - you could also just make the custard as per the instructions on the pack for a thick custard.

Cream butter & sugar together til light and fluffy. Beat in egg. Fold through sifted flour and custard powder.

Pour half the cake mixture into a greased/lined cake tin. Spread cooled custard over the top, then pour remaining cake mixture over the custard. Bake in a moderate over for 30mins or until cooked.

Best eaten same day.

Note - I've doubled the cake/custard quantities at times to make a larger cake - but I'm a glutz! :rollthoseeyes:

I just love trampoline although it doesn't love me (hips and tummy expanding at the mere thought)! Iced VoVo is the best! I just love the marshmallows.

There is the other place called Cold Rock I think. Discovered it in Queesland last year and it is sublime! There is one in Melbourne to I think in Malvern. They will put your favourite choclates etc through your ice cream! I love watching them crush and roll the choccies into the icecream!

I have never (until now) been a huge fan of M&M's however in my last few Adore Beauty Orders there have been little packets of them included. I now crave M&M's constantly. So much for the detox! lol

Ohh yes! Cold Rock is great!!! They have slabs of chilled marble that the mush the icecream and your toppings up in right in front of you! (Funny, I now have a craving for icecream - mint choc chip with Maltesers!) :whistle:

Nattieb, thanks for the recipe!

Cold Rock sounds like a shop in Melbourne's HIghpoint shopping centre. The Streets people have the Streets shop, placed conveniently right next to the cinemas! They have the most amazing combos that you can have melded into your icecream, including fudge! I like their sorbet ones with Calypo sorbet and a raspberry coulis. Hoyts people not happy though, recent appearance of a sign saying that only Hoyts candy bar items allowed into the cinema! Bah!

Also love Adore's sweet M&M treats, so thoughtful!

Melbournegirl, love Haighs in the Block arcade even though I am not really a chocolate person. You should check out Koko Black in Lygon St - amazing!

I actually love the cherry liqueur thingies - must be the brandy! Lol!:dunce:


Bought some more cherry liqueur thingies today. Brandy and dark chocolate it is just devine.
Koko Black in Lygon St is on my list. Have been to the Royal Arcade one,but it is tiny.
Also Brunettis in Carlton is on my list. Love their icecream! Italians just know how to make icecream.

I am craving your cherry liqueur thingies! You will love the Koko Black store in Lygon St, much bigger than the Block and set up like a restaurant!

My current fave sweet treat is a chocolate paddle pop, because they only have about 97 calories and they nip my sugar and chocolate cravings in the bud. Plus they are great when you are really thirsty.

My big luxurious splurge is ferrero rochers, omg anything with hazelnut and chocolate is good, i'm not fussy. Actually i pretty much eat any milk chocolate.

Chocolate chocolate chocolate !!!!!

Ooooh I've been craving Paddle Pops the last week or so. I even went to the store last night to get some but they didn't have any :no: Yummmbo

My mum buys 3 boxes when they are on sale, coz my dad and i have one every day

bubble o bills, honey crackles, my mums caramel tart (all home made baby!), golden syrup dumplings..... hmmmmmmmm....now I feel like some!! dammit!!! :chuckle:

My fav dessert is pecan pie, my fav candy bar at the moment is kit kat cookie doe....this is heaven!

Anything with chocolate/coconut/nuts. emmmmmmm :p

Kit kat cookie dough, whats this i've never heard of it? I love love love kit kats and now i think i'm on a mission to get me some cookie dough.

Yummo!

ALso i love pecn pie too with whipped cream or a really tangy lemon tart, especially the mini ones from coffee club.

Man i need cake!!!! lol lol

Kit Kat cookie dough?? Holy moley. *runs out the door and across the road to the 7-11*

Are you based in the US by any chance precious_star?? I don't think we get that in Australia! Sounds yummy!!

Holey moley alright!!! I can't stop thinking about cookie dough, i gunna have to have a splurge and get one and devour the lot.:p

OMG! I'm sitting here drooling over the idea of the Kit Kat Cookie Dough!

Think I'll be popping down to the newsagent for a look-see! :whistle:

I had yummy vanilla chocolate swirl cheesecake last night from the cheesecake shop - divine!

Holey moley alright!!! I can't stop thinking about cookie dough, i gunna have to have a splurge and get one and devour the lot.:p

OMG! Even as a non chocoholic, I gotta try me some of this cookie dough!

Girls get yourself on down to your nearest Cold Rock they have the cookie doe! For you Melbourne girls there is one in Malvern.

I am going to Malvern tomorrow for lunch with a couple of girlfriends, might have to look up the address so we can have dessert!

www.coldrock.com.au look under mix in's in the menue and there's your cookie doe!

It is at 227 Glenferrie Road Malvern Luisa!

It is at 227 Glenferrie Road Malvern Luisa!

I am going to be next to corner of Glenferrie and Wattletree tomorrow, whoo hoo, hope I get time!

It's awesome Luisa. We go to Queesnland every year for a month and Cold Rock is just a 1 minute walk from the gorund floor of the resort we have an apartment at. I have it all the time (well it is a holiday and you can allow to put on a kilo or two:ashamed: )!

We got our very first cold rock last year in the city closest to wear i live, i love love love the ferrero rocher ice cream. I'm not a big ice cream fan but OMG its good.

I had my very first Kit Kat cookie dough, OMG it was good. Really really sweet and caramely but so good at the same time. I went to the supermarket and i was looking for them in the confectionery section where the kit kats are and i couldn't see them but they were on the bottom shelf all by themselves pretty much. I kinda freaked out coz i was really craving one.

So good.:p

Oh wow PP, that does sound good...I have to get to a supermarket, stat!

I just worked my way through a king-sized Snickers bar (big-time arvo sugar slump). It really did satisfy! :clapping:

I'm having a banana and apple and they aren't doing it for me, i'd prefer a king size snickers too.

oh i just had a peach.. but i SO want the kit kat - or maltesers - or anything naughty really!

:penguin:

:whistle: I gave in today - saw the Cookie Dough Kit Kat at Woolies - currently savouring every bite! SOooooo yummy!

droolssss!! reading anything food related makes me hungry! especially ice creamssssssssss! i absolutely eat it like theres no tomorrow! PCC thanks for the site! i think imma be heading too this cold rock place this weekend. :shakehead:

Nattieb that is exactly how i ate my kit kat, i had a gigantic muffice break skinny cappacino and ate my kit kat like i'd never get another one again. It went well with coffee.

yes i had it with a coffee too - the bitterness of the coffee went well with the super sweet of the kit kat! :ashamed:

I am almost willing myself to have a choc craving (rarely happens thank goodness!) just so I can try out this cookie dough Kit Kat!

emmmmm i just had a cookie dough kit kat, sooooo good!!!!! now today isnt so bad. couldnt find a cute summer dress at lunch so decided on chocolate!

Sorry to drag up the old thread but the forum is very slow today and this thread is soooo yummy.

My sweet tooth probably betrays a lot of my psychological secrets - I'm a kid at heart!! I love the kind of food you'd have at a 7-year-old's birthday party - cupcakes (almost my favourite thing), mixed lollies, smarties, fairy floss - anything colourful and fun!! Sometimes I feel so immature because when I have people over I'll make an antipasto platter with the usual sundried tomatoes, dolmades, pate etc - but all I really want is Allens Strawberries & Cream lollies!

I also have a major weakness for what I generally call "afternoon tea food", in fact if I had to have a last meal it might be high tea!! I adore anything baked - scones, slices, brownies, biscuits. I love things to be beautifully presented too, I'm a real sucker for a gorgeous cupcake with iced flowers on top, or a beautiful black forest cake with cherries around the edges! Oh, and I love "mini" anything - cupcakes (again with the cupcakes?!), petit-fours, mini pavlovas, mini quiches (not sweet, but still yummy), all arranged on a gorgeous dainty little plate! Heaven!

Kiddie parties rock........ go the fairy bread!!

I'm a high tea fan too ozkat. Gals and I often have one when we're at the QVB in Sydney, or here in Canberra at the Hyatt. I've also 'catered' a few afternoon teas for brides-to-be who didn't want the whole hens night cliche. My specialities are friands and lemon tarts - have to admit though there are usually a few missing before people arrive...cook's perogative!

RBB I threw a baby shower and a bridal shower earlier this year, both afternoon teas, and they were so much fun to prepare for! I loved making the little sandwiches and setting up the table with white flowers and gorgeous plates - and the whole events were enjoyable too!

My favourite sweet treat is Mars Bar Slice. I make it for my boy

I feel terrible when I am melting 5 mars bars and a stick of butter in the saucepan though...

I have a biiig sweet tooth unfortunately. I'm not a big lolly or cake eater - but I love gelato and icecream, as well as chocolate and sweet creamy desserts. If I eat cake, I prefer eating it in cupcake form - so cute! I also like sweet fruit like watermelon and dried fruit like paw paw.

Mmm - no wonder Easter is my favourite holiday! :hearts:

I still can't get enough easter egg chocolate :redcheeks:

well i was silly enough last night whilst shopping , to pick up some half price eggs - like i needed more :redcheeks:

well i was silly enough last night whilst shopping , to pick up some half price eggs - like i needed more :redcheeks:

:chuckle: So easy to do! I'm dreading doing my shopping this week as I know I'm going to be tempted by those half price sales :redcheeks:

Hear you girls! I'm hoping everyone else will snap them up in the sales so I won't be tempted (so get shopping you two!). I've still got a few from the weekend. Creme eggs are the bomb. Also halfway through a chocolate bunny. He's currently headless, the poor delicious darling.

I'm craving a giant icecream sandwich right now. mmmm

I don't really have a sweet tooth, however, when my energy level is low or my hormones are screaming, I indulge in a Laurent custard filled doughnut. :chuckle:

Yum! I just had a brioche with berry bits. Adore staff may know the store, it's called Sweet Source on Rathdowne St. Gorgeous cupcakes and lots of mouthwatering sweet things!

OMG, in some magazine I just read, they had tim-tam recipes! Lordy lord, my favourite one was like this:
- Crush a packet of tim-tams. Combine with a pkt of cream cheese. Refrigerate. Roll spoonfuls into balls.

THAT'S IT! They're like fuss-free tim-tam cheesecake balls!

yuuuuuuuum! which magazine??

yuuuuuuuum! which magazine??

Not sure jaime, it's been a big magazine week!! I'll have a look through though and report back later on.

The tim-tam ball recipe is simple though - tim-tams + cream cheese = yum (and possibly cardiac arrest)

excellent, first stop on my way home - supermarket for tim tams and cream cheese! :p

yeah and maybe some Fatblaster too :chuckle:

Ozkat - you'll have to tell us what quantities of each!

I might have to make them and bring them to work for the girls - that way I won't eat them all myself! :hearts:

I just told the girls at work about it and we are all drooling now. :chuckle:

Okie doke, here's the recipe for Tim Tam Truffles from page 186 of May New Woman mag (with Naomi Watts on the cover). It should probably be in the recipe thread but oh well. There are also recipes for Choc Mousse Tarts (featuring tim-tams) and Tim Tam Sponge!

Finely crush one packet of tim tams.
Mix well with 250g cream cheese until smooth.
Refrigerate until firm.
Remove from fridge and shape into golf-sized balls.
Insert a skewer into each ball and dip into a bowl of melted milk chocolate.
Rest skewer in a glass to set.
Drizzle dark chocolate over truffles to decorate.

Oh goody I have that magazine :) Thanks ozkat!

HOW DID I MISS THAT! I have that mag! :saber:

ok my workmate made these truffles last night and brought them in to share and THEY ARE SO YUMMY! Tastes like chocolate mousse inside.
TIP: mix in a couple of tablespoons of Baileys to make them super naughty !

Chocolate. Cheesecake or a Hot Chocolate, my faves, I love sweet things but when I go out I often go for a cheesecake and I love to have some chocolate now and again... my fave would be a cherry ripe! ...

I like to try different desserts...

I'm a dessert girl too Alice. Go the cheesecake.

I had dinner with pals tonight and made the old favourite, sticky date pudding. It was pretty good! Scary though when you remember the sauce is just brown sugar, cream and butter - oh who am I kidding, they're my three favourite food groups!

Chocolate crackles. Love them. I sometimes make a batch and take them in to work, and they disappear so quickly!

I'm a coconut ice fan myself. So sweet it makes your teeth ache!

And honey joys too. Cornflakes were always in our pantry. One of the first things I made as a kid with mum, awwwwwww.

Chocolate crackles. Love them. I sometimes make a batch and take them in to work, and they disappear so quickly!
I love these too. Did you know the flavour actually comes from the very fattening Copha? The cocoa just colours them. I make them without the cocoa for my daughter who can't eat it & they taste exactly the same. Look cute sprinkled with 100s & 1000s too.

Oh yeah. I love copha-based foods like chocolate crackles and white christmas. Mmmmmm!!

I had a maxibon today. DAMN it was good! My new favourite sweet treat is cookie + icecream. Apparently Wendys make an ice-cream sandwich that is really good.

I made those Tim Tam/Philly cheese truffles twice now are both times they were such a success! I looove them (this is a bad thing). The second time though, I drizzled white rather than dark choc on them and I prefered this. Mmmm!!!

Think I tossed out the mag with the Tim Tam recipes! Can you be bothered to write thie truffle one down Celestefay?:)

Think I tossed out the mag with the Tim Tam recipes! Can you be bothered to write thie truffle one down Celestefay?:)

Of course! It is easy as pie:

1 packet Tim Tams
1 tub Philapdelphia Cream Xheese (I used light - have to save fat where we can!!)
1 block milk chocolate/ choc melts (I used about 3/4 block)
Small amount of dark.white chocolate

Smash up Tim Tams and mix together with Philly Cheese to make a mixture.
Roll into golf-sized balls
Melt milk chocolate and coat truffles (this is where it gets tricky - the recipe said to stick skewers in the truffles, dip in chocolate and sit skewers in a glass to set. I found this didn't work (and the choc dripper everywhere) so I just rolled the truffles in the chocolate and sat them on a plate. Some stuck a bit but they still looked good and tasted better!)
Melt white/dark choc and drizzle over truffles.
Put in fridge to set

Hope this makes sense!!

Thanks Celestefay!:hearts:

ohmygod i found the yummiest choc chip cookie recipe on the net the other day and it was sooo good but they'd be even better as a icecream samy!!! two cookies with icecream in the middle! yummo!!!

thank god i've run out of choc chips - if i make another batch i think i will look like a cookie! :o

Now that you have made our mouths water natt, you better fess up with the recipe!:penguin:

I had the Wendys ice-cream sandwich with choc-mint icecream in the middle, OHHHHH MYYYYYYYYY GODDDDDDDDDDD so good.

Lately... :typing: :typing: I am loving the Lebanese/Greek sweet Baklava - it's to die for with a nice short black coffee!!!
Amongst others, my fave choc bar is a Twix or a Crunchie Bar.... oh yum!!!

Will you lot stop!! Please???? :tears: There's no chocolate in the house :shakehead: , I am craving sweet soooooooo bad, and as it's bucketing down with rain, I can't do a servo run (if I drove I could). And you lot aren't helping! :rollthoseeyes:

Sorry to drag up the old thread but the forum is very slow today and this thread is soooo yummy.

I also have a major weakness for what I generally call "afternoon tea food", in fact if I had to have a last meal it might be high tea!! I adore anything baked - scones, slices, brownies, biscuits. I love things to be beautifully presented too, I'm a real sucker for a gorgeous cupcake with iced flowers on top, or a beautiful black forest cake with cherries around the edges! Oh, and I love "mini" anything - cupcakes (again with the cupcakes?!), petit-fours, mini pavlovas, mini quiches (not sweet, but still yummy), all arranged on a gorgeous dainty little plate! Heaven!

I LOVE High Tea. Instead of going out to a bar or something along that vein for my 18th, all I wanted to do was to go out with my friends and have high tea!! (I think I was born in the wrong era).

If you've ever in Brisbane, we have the most amazing high tea places. Joseph Alexander's on Coronation Drive do a fabulous one, High Socie-tea in Eagle Junction is awesome, so is Queenies (can't remember where it is), and there's another one somewhere in the valley. I collect teacups and pots from markets and relatives etc. and love nothing more than baking away all day to set up for a high tea.

Now that you have made our mouths water natt, you better fess up with the recipe!:penguin:

Ok here's the link to the site I got it from... plenty of others I want to try out here!

http://www.joyofbaking.com/ChocolateCookies.html

I actually used one cup of white choc chips and half a cup of milk choc chips - so it's more of a Triple Choc chip cookie.

For the cocoa powder I used the Nestle Baking Cocoa Powder that comes in a tin at the supermarket (not very economical but it's a bit better than the homebrand cocoa powder!)

Enjoy!! :penguin:

ahh have you read the paper today - there's an article about the high tea party at the Stamford!

I love their chocolate high tea!

Hey thanks for that, if I wasnt going out this afternoon, there would be a huge bake-a-thon happening!

I had the yummiest home-made apple and rhubarb crumble last night for dessert. It was really good. And my sister-in-law made us some hedgehog slice. mmmmmm!

I used to live in Brissy and went out for High Tea quite a few times, usually to Keri Craig Emporium in the mall. I love it too, I love getting properly dressed up and going out for a spot of shopping before (and after)!

Oh I love High Tea, The Hyatt in Melbourne do one everyday in the afternoon for their guests. Mum and I love to go up for some gorgeous cakes and club sandwhiches, she had a glass on bubbly and I have a lemonade. Am going to organise a high tea in Melbourne for my 30th Birthday in December for all my Melbourne girlfriends, yes that means you to Miss Luisa Brown!

High Tea sounds like somthing my Mum would get a kick out of..................

High Tea is so very traditional. It is a time to dressup and experience a time gone by. PCC the Park Hyatt and The Windsor also present wonderful High Tea.

Not for me anymore though I'm afraid - stuck to my tongue stud! :shakehead::shakehead:

I buy these in packets and the household knows that these are MY lolllies! I like them when they are all bendy not brittle but they still stick to your teeth!

I realy love the lolly Milkshakes, I think they have been renamed milk chews or something but they are so good! I buy the bag that has milkshakes, red skins and Sherbies in it although I can't eat the redskins as I am frightened if they get too stuck on my crowns they might pull them off!

we all love that multi bag at our house,:rollthoseeyes: yummy

ooooh yum I love sherbies!!

As you adorables know I'm not really a sweet tooth. However today I have been craving something indulgent.

I have found a block of Lindt Excellence Orange Intense.

It belongs to my darling.

The label states .....fine dark chocolate with pieces of orange and almond slivers.......yum!

The coffee is brewing and I am unwrapping..............................:whipcrack :

Sneaky girl! I just had a piece (albeit tiny I am afraid) of my dad's birthday cake. It is from an Italian Pasticceria not far from Adore. It is a traditional sponge layered with vanilla and choc creme anglais (that's custard to most of you!). Finished off with fake cream and fake glace cherries but boy is it yum. This store has lots of yummy treats - might have to make a pilgrimage when we all come together!

Oh yes, I lovge those in tghe milk and white chocolate, absolutely devine!!!!!!!!!

Dark chocolate.
I really like muffins too!

Lately I've been having almost uncontrollable cravings for Allens lollies, to the point where I will get dressed and go for a drive just to get them! It's getting ridiculous but I can't stop thinking of the chewy juicy taste in my mouth of the Pineapples and Raspberries! And the yummy creamy Milk Bottles and Strawberries & Cream, and Teeth! Ohhhhh I LOVE ALLENS LOLLIES!

I could pretty easily live without chocolate for the rest of my life (I really only eat chocolate at Ladies' Time) but I am borderline obsessed with Allens lollies!! I love Starburst too but i am so all about the Allens. AND AND AND Allens have recently (well, sort of recently) released a Retro Party Mix which has ALL THE BEST STUFF in it! It's awesome - so much better than the standard Party Mix.

This is all not helped by the fact that I have found a place that sells proper Allens lollies in bulk, including Racing Cars which I love too.

I need help.

I need help.

Apparently! :chuckle:

I also have a real thing for raison toast with lashings of butter. I can never just have one or 2 slices... I had to stop buying it cos I just eat it all... :(

I love raisin toast with butter and cinnamon sugar.
Dammit... now I'm really hungry :snowman:

There is a Cadbury's Twirl and a Snickers sitting in my fridge at home. I'm kicking myself that I didn't bring it into work I'm sooooo hungry :shakehead:

I am itching to get my hands on some Sugar Choc Filled Tia Maria drops!!

Mmm I could go anything sweet right about now....

I made two sponge cakes in food tech today!
And icing of course!

I have a thing for Lamingtons at the moment

Mmmmm, lamingtons...

Oh blech! I used to love them, until we had to make a truckload for the school one year - that did me in with lamingtons.

My bestie makes the most divine Lamingtons using chocolate cake instead of butter cake. Yum!:glee:

Don't know what the Country Women's Association would have to say about it though! :chuckle:

:chuckle::chuckle:

There is a CWA ( Chicks with attitude :chuckle: ) in St Georges Rd near my house. When members of the CWA come to Melbourne from the Country, they stay there. I volunteer to show them how to get about and use the transport system etc. They are a hoot, but really opinionated particularly about baking. :chuckle:

I want a spider - I have been craving one for 4 days and don't even know why!

yumm i LOVE spiders , cke , creaming soda or lime ,,mmmmmmmm:whipcrack:

& just because i can :reindeer: :reindeer: :reindeer:

I don't even know why I want one! I think I was about 9 last time I had one, as I don't eat icecream so not really my thing, but did't mind them - but have such a hankering for them!

Phwoar! Sounds like my kind of lamington.

Don't know what the Country Women's Association would have to say about it though! :chuckle:

Hey say what you want about the CWA, I have a copy of Lady Flo Bjelke-Petersen's cookbook (autographed thank you very much) and those country chicks know their baking - I wouldn't be messing with it!

So you reckon a CWA Cookbood might save me Oz? I cannot bake for the life of me.

I have a CWA cookbook, but I find the old fashioned recipes hard to follow

my all time weakness.................pavlovas =)

The boy gave me a pez at work today - god it was good that tiny little sucker

Im just looking around for Xmas gifts and I discovered this...

my mouth is watering!

Ohhh so cute!

I'm not a fan of any lollies, it would be rare for me to eat one... But I love chocolate..

At the moment I'm craving a Mint Slice from Gloria Jeans..

my all time weakness.................pavlovas =)

Ive never had the Pavlova before :redcheeks:

I don't like pavlova. Its just sugar, cream and air

I don't like pavlova. Its just sugar, cream and air

eww that sounds gross

eww that sounds gross

:chuckle:.... that's just me though everyone I know loves it!

I love pavlova mmmmm.. with lots of passionfruit and strawberries :)

Can't say I'm a huge pav fan myself, but a good one is gooooood.

I Love Pavs!

Mmmmm i love pavs they are so good with lots of whipped cream and frozen raspberries that have melted and passionfruit.

I also love Nigella Lawsons chocolate pavlova, its to die for.

Yup, a pav fan here too. Great with summer fruit like mango, passionfruit etc. Reminds me of many summer BBQ's, always the chosen dessert! You can lighten it a bit by using good quality yoghurt instead of cream. Adds a bit more flavour and goes beautifully with the fruit.

I don't like pavlova. Its just sugar, cream and air

do you mean egg whites, sugar & air? Oh right the topping :typing:

I also love Nigella Lawsons chocolate pavlova, its to die for.

I love Nigella full stop :D She makes stuffing your face look sexy :D

I love Nigella full stop :D

So do I!
Her life story is amazing. She is so gutsy and dynamic. :hearts:

Yeah she has had a hard life when you see her Bio

I love Nigella too. I want to die and be re-incarnated as her!! So right about her being gutsy, she's had such an up-and-down life and has such a stoic attitude to everything. I find it slightly intimidating how she just gets on with things with such a slightly unsentimental attitude. Love her though - so smart and sexy!

And for the record I adore pavlova! A good one can just make your heart melt - when it's hard and crunchy on the outside, and then a bit gooey, and then finally light-as-air inside. Only homemade can replicate that! And as much as I like the variations on it (greek yoghurt with mangoes or berries), I also love the traditional one - cream, strawberries, kiwi and passionfruit!

I have SUCH a sweet tooth and 99% of the time would prefer sweet over savoury food. It's so funny what people consider to be "binge food" - my brother binges on pasta carbonara and corn chips, and for me, binge food is always about SUGAR!

Oh Oz - I can binge on just about anything :(

Oh Oz - I can binge on just about anything :(

Oh me too, don't worry about that - it's just that sugar is my preferred binge food......although the occasional chip craving does hit me.

I love nigella too! :) I have been watching her shows on ABC and lifestyle alot the few days (her christmas specials are great!) And right as we speak i am cooking a pavlova - the classic pavlova recipe off www.taste.com.au :) (substituted the raspberries for fresh strawberies) cant wait! :D

Nice Emmy!

I couldn't watch her shows. Everytime she mentions an ingredient she goes "and its absolutely delicious/to die for/ sensational", and it started to annoy me. Might stick to her books instead :chuckle:

I love the xmas shows on lifestyle at the moment. I love her kitchen with all the fairy lights, so cute!

my mum makes the BEST pav EVER , mostly crunchy stuff , but light & also melt in your mouth , just the right amount of sticky stuff , topped with lightly whipped cream & strawberries & banana YUM:whipcrack:
she is "famous" around here for them

i'll have to try the choc version i have seen nigella do hers SO many times & i always salivate whilst watching :whistle:

BTW i did our turkey the same way Nigella did it in that Christmas show that has been going around, it worked it was very moist , we have 2 chefs in hubby's family & it got the thumbs up :santa:

Right. Ok. I missed something, but anyhoo..............

right now my fave sweet treat is either: Organic blackberries, or organic loganberries. The blackberries I got from a guy at work, he gave all the workers some for Christmas, and the logans are from my mum :hearts: Both dropped them in tonight, withing 15 minutes of each other.

Bugger icecream, this is waaaaaaaay better.

Organic blackberries


I am the berry queen but of all berries, blackberries are my favourites! Yum!

Arent you lucky Rosie! I would have had the berries WITH the icecream!;)

Arent you lucky Rosie! I would have had the berries WITH the icecream!;)

Haha a woman after my own heart! Fruit is a snack. Fruit with icecream is dessert!

I love berries too, GOD how I do! They're so expensive up here though!

That's part of what makes these ones so good, not only are they organic (always taste better) they are FREE!!!
