OK people.  IF YOU TRY ONE RECIPE THIS MONTH let this be it.  For the love of chocolate. I taste tested each and every recipe with Jade as she prepared her delicious chocolatey treats during our shoot… and these sensational mini ice cream sundaes with salted caramel sauce and cacao nib cookie crumb were HANDS DOWN my absolute FAVE.  Originally devised as a quick treat for her staff on a hot day in the kitchen, and served simply in latte glasses, these delicious cups of sweet, salty, crunchy goodness are simply outstanding.  The cacao nib crumb provides the perfect bitter chocolate crunch and, well, the appeal of homemade salted caramel sauce really needs no explanation. – Lucy

A Fragrant, Inner-City Garden Rejuvenates This Heritage Home

Nestled in a leafy, tranquil pocket of the Melbourne CBD, right next to the MCG sports precinct, is the suburb of East Melbourne. It’s here, in this curiously quiet corner of a giant capital metropolis, that landscape architect Nadia Gill was engaged for her latest project.

The ‘Henry House’ garden is a lively addition to a recently renovated heritage terrace. Framed by original Victorian detailing at the front, and a gnarled old apple tree at the rear boundary line, these reinvigorated green spaces create a dialogue between the home’s old and new architecture.

If you’ve ever wondered how to create the perfect indoor-outdoor transition, this garden is your masterclass!

FOOD'Rosy Posy' Smoothie - The Design Files | Australia's most popular design blog.

This smoothie recipe was such a fun one to create and name. It’s my take on the typical strawberry breakfast smoothie, but a slightly fancier version with the addition of rosewater and rose petals.

This smoothie is made with love, and I always like to make it for the special people in my life. Besides tasting delicious, Rosy Posy also has a great hit of natural antioxidants contained in the rose petals.

 

Ingredients (Serves 2)

1 cup strawberries (fresh or frozen)

1⁄2 cup cashew nuts, soaked for 2 hours or overnight, then rinsed

1 tsp rosewater

1⁄2 vanilla pod, split and seeds scraped

2 tablespoons raw honey

2 cups of almond milk

Edible rose petals, to serve

Method

Place the strawberries, cashews, rosewater, vanilla seeds, raw honey and almond milk in your blender and process until smooth (this will smell amazing!).

Pour into glasses and top with a few rose petals. A fun, girly creation!
