If forced to choose I would probably pick something chocolatey as my all-time favourite dessert. Maybe a black forest gateau, or a chocolate torte. And I’d be wrong. Because when it comes to puddings, the one that holds the key to my heart is a zesty and sharp key lime pie. There’s nothing better than…

Mojito Cupcakes
Everyone’s favourite cocktail (apart from my wife’s, apparently) in cupcake form! I don’t know about you, but Mojitos just scream summer to me – lots of ice, mint, lime, and a generous helping of rum. Okay, so there might not be any ice in my Mojito Cupcakes, but everything else ‘Mojito’ is here. Rum buttercream…
Mint Limeade
Something a little bit different for you today – I don’t think there’s ever been a drink recipe posted on What Charlotte Baked before, although please do correct me if I’m wrong! Let’s start our foray into drinks with a high, and you can’t get much higher than Mint Limeade, right? Made with fresh limes…

Incredibly easy dessert alert! These gorgeous dessert shots pretty much make themselves, and are the perfect way to finish a dinner party. Because who doesn’t love mini desserts? Have one (or three) of each! I’ve got two flavours for you today. If you want something a little sweeter, then raspberry lemonade is right up your…

Summer, come at me. You might be thinking, Charlotte, those cupcakes look awfully coconutty (and a bit wintery) with their snowy coconut…
Homemade Lime Curd
This past weekend was pretty much summer here in the UK, and of course that meant that everyone ventured out and about for picnics and barbecues in the park. I did manage to get in the kitchen and throw together a couple of things – the salted caramel banana bread I shared with you earlier in…
Mojito Ice Lollies
After killing it with my Peach Raspberry Ice Lollies a few weeks ago, I thought it only fitting to give my specially imported ice lolly moulds another go. And this time I went boozy. I’m pretty sure Mojitos are everyone’s favourite cocktail. They went down a storm at our recent wedding after all. And you are…
Chocolate Lime Bars
So, I managed to drag myself away from trying to track down Pikachu, and spent Sunday afternoon cooking up these hulk-green chocolate lime bars. I might have gone a little OTT on the food colouring. Let that be a lesson to you. There are a tonne of limes in our fridge at the moment, due to…
