Green tea and roses are my favorite combo, so this Matcha cake, with rose buttercream is my dream. It was a success during my first workshop, so I’m sharing the recipe here! This is the original recipe, with vanilla buttercream. For my Rose Frosting version, all I did was add...
A sweet way to finish 2017. In the end of December I had the pleasure to go meet up Bianca, one of my BFFs, in Paris and I’d like to share a bit of this travel. I know it’s March already! I honestly could not find the time to...
I had the pleasure to visit Antwerp for the first time in October and would like to share some of the highlights with you! It was a super short visit, only 36 hours but I had the best time! Antwerp was not in the top of my travel list,...

Charlottenburg is by far my favourite place in Berlin. It’s a beautiful neighbourhood, with calm streets, lots of restaurants and cafes, old and well groomed buildings, a lovely lake, and a castle. I’m not a person who likes crowds, a bit of an old soul, and I find...
I’ve been to Berlin several times in the last 5 years, even had a internship during a winter in a communication company, but I had never been to the Museum Island. I used to catch a train that would pass right in front of it and it always made...
