Orange flavoured mandazis
### My Love-Hate Relationship with Mandazis I have a love-hate relationship with mandazis. While I wouldn't say I'm head over heels for them, I definitely can't resist the temptation to stuff my face with these delightful treats! I've been making mandazis since I was in primary school, which feels like ages ago. I have fond memories of helping my mum cut them into fun shapes using everything from bottle tops to cups, just so we could enjoy eating them in different styles. I learned to make mandazis largely due to my primary school experience, where boys could be quite the bullies. If you were lucky enough to buy a mandazi at break time, it was a struggle to keep those hands at bay! When I moved on to high school, making mandazis became a joy for me. For some reason, they held up as a tea-time snack for over two weeks! How that was possible, I have no clue—especially since there were no preservatives involved and I stored them in the same box as my soaps and shoe polish (don't judge me; we did what we had to do to survive!). Nowadays, I mainly make mandazis for my dad and sister, as they often need a quick snack to take to work. Making mandazis is pretty simple, especially if you're patient with the proofing and blooming time. Happy cooking!
Pastry Pleasures
Blueberry cake
This is the cake that will leave your tastebuds feeling some type of way. You’ll want to give this cake some TLC when you are done baking it. It seriously is good. I’ve had blueberry cakes in the past and some have been a bit disappointing. There’s a current trend of using food Colour on cakes as opposed to the natural fruit to make the cakes. This recipe is simple to the core and it leaves your house smelling glorious. You will want to eat this cake as slowly as possible, so as to give your taste buds all the love in the world. If you don’t believe me, try it. It will be a whole lot of bliss with every bite.

Sambusa
I may be a baker, but I’m not easily sold on sweet things. I recently quit processed sugars because it had become a bit of problem for me.I am a pastry buff. I was born to eat samosa or sambusa as some of us have grown up pronouncing 🙂 . Seriously. Life is much more beautiful when there’s is an abundance of these triangular pastries.If you’ve ever had a bad samosa , you know it could change your outlook on these majestic pastries, but its much easier to make your own to avoid the risk of a bad samosa.
