I’ve always had a soft spot for chocolate mousse – so creamy, light, chocolatey, and just utterly satisfying. However, traditional chocolate mouse involves egg yolks and so is limited from a health and diet perspective. I wanted to figure out a way to achieve the same taste and consistency without the eggs, and that is …

The whole month of August is generally when Hindus observe a religious fast, which leads up to Ganesh Chaturthi. During this time, we are not supposed to consume eggs. That being said, I cannot bake anything with eggs, dairy products are okay though, which means the sweets don’t necessarily have to vegan. However, I wanted …
Right before the Holidays I received my first Chefpriyanka Cupcake order!! I wish I had time to write this post earlier, but better late than never! So a week before Christmas, my Aunty was attending a Holiday party at her place of work. She placed an order for cupcakes and I was a little confused …
If you’re a foodie or a cupcake connoisseur, then you’ve definitely heard of Sprinkles Cupcakes. If you haven’t then you’re a poser- aka you’re not a true foodie or cupcake lover. Why do I say this? Sprinkles Cupcakes is considered the first (solely) cupcake bakery in the world and is originated in California. I had …
During my last trip to Boston, I visited Flour Bakery. My boyfriend lives right next door to it and has been raving about it, so I decided to give it a try. I’m sure you’ve heard of Flour– its been featured in many magazines and shows like the Today Show on NBC. The owner and …
