Why Orange Toque? And why on Queen's Day? Toque is the hat worn by a chef. Queen's day is a national holiday in the Netherlands that celebrates the birthday of the Queen. Orange is the Dutch national colour.

Passion Fruit Bavaroise
Trees are sprouting and flowers are blooming, it’s the start of a beautiful season. Yes, spring is here! ;) How about celebrating the arrival of spring with a dessert?
Pancakes with Orange Pomegranate syrup
I promised my editor that, one day I would make him some pancakes served in bed. He likes the fluffy American pancakes, so do I, though I also like crepes, the French version of pancakes. Pancake is great for breakfast or brunch especially on a lazy Saturday or Sunday.

Strawberry Mascarpone Tart
Strawberries and cream, a Wimbledon signature snack! Oh yes, Wimbledon, Wimbledon, one of the Tennis Grand Slam tournaments and one that has a special place in my heart. Oh how I used to dislike the drizzle of London, but on this occasion in June 2005, I was glad it rained, or I wouldn't have had the opportunity to watch a Special Sunday Wimbledon Final.
