Bhaji burger

We've combined two of our favourite recipes to make a bhaji in a bun. Serve with mango chutney and a fluffy brioche bun

Strawberry & cinnamon streusel bars

Pack these in tins for picnics or school fetes, or serve single bars with a dollop of clotted cream for dessert. Blackberries also work really well when strawberry season is over

Warm cherry & brown sugar compote

Boozy kirsch-soaked cherries, combined with vanilla ice cream and amaretti biscuits make a dessert as simple as it is delicious 

Red berry fruit compote (German rote grütze)

This light, fruity dessert is a German summertime staple – a mixed berry compote with custard. The fruity mix is ideal as a topping for granola or stirred through ice cream

Crunchy bulgur salad

A vibrant summer salad with radishes, edamame beans, peppers, almonds and herbs, drizzled with a citrus dressing

Gooseberry & custard pies

Use slightly tart gooseberries in this summer dessert with a delicate vanilla custard and filo pastry

Cherry soup with whipped mascarpone & caramelised almonds

Plump, glossy cherries poached in Prosecco, topped with crunchy almond brittle and creamy mascarpone makes for the perfect summer dessert

Quick peach Melba crumbles

Raspberries, peaches and a crunchy granola topping make for an easy 10-minute dessert that's perfect for summer

Strawberry & white balsamic ice cream

This refreshing summer dessert is milky, subtle and slightly tangy. Use the plumpest, most perfectly-ripe strawberries you can find for the best flavour

Strawberry tart with lavender & honey cream

Delicate lavender and honey cream is the perfect accompaniment to a slice or two of this sumptuous summer dessert. Assemble the tart just before serving to prevent soggy pastry

Summer party cake

This generous cake is big enough to feed a crowd and is a combination of all our favourite summer ingredients: strawberries, Victoria sponge, meringues, fresh cream, white chocolate and buttery shortbread

Meringue kisses

These colourful mini meringues are a great little sweet party nibble. You can also pop them on top of a summer bake or dessert to stunning effect
