2. Nutella doughnuts

Nutella is pretty much like the icing on the cake for ALL THINGS. The cherry on top if you will. Just when you think something has reached the peak level of awesomeness, Nutella goes and takes it up a notch. We give you Nutella doughnuts. That’s right, soft doughy cinnamon buns with a warm gooey dollop of hazelnut bread in the centre. Level up folks, LEVEL UP.

 

3. Breakfast cups

No time for a sit-down breakfast, no matter! This clever egg creation is perfect for a brekkie on the go, a quick snack or even lunch with a few leafy greens. Spinach and eggs are always a winning combo! Healthy too…

5. Custard pies

Be still my beating heart. Holy Batman if there’s nothing I love more than vanilla custard, it’s probably when it’s all contained in a sweet pastry shell – AKA a custard pie. You can bet your vanilla bean paste I’ll be trying this out for myself.

6. Snow cakes

You know a pie maker is the business when an enthusiastic lady says she’s using it to feed their hungry, hard-working shearers. Snow cakes are the bee’s knees – a packet cake mix, cream and jam and you’re GOOD TO GO.
