Every summer is an opportunity to make some savory loaves that will accompany all our salads and light lunches; Sweettablescapes is always happy to try another combination of ingredients and flavors based on an otherwise consistent recipe of flour, oil and eggs.

Biscuits Roses de Reims: pink cookies
Do you like pink? Do you enjoy dunking cookies in Champagne? You might want to try these Biscuits Roses De Reims; they get their name from the fact that they are pink, of course and so crunchy that they are better enjoyed when dunked into Champagne, which is made in the Champagne region of France,…
Weeknight Banana Bread
With a short ingredient list and prep time, this Banana Bread can easily be made on a whim and enjoyed shortly thereafter. The original recipe from Country Living, Oct. 2021 was called Griddled BB with Sorghum Syrup and basically had you sauté slices of the bread and pouring sorghum syrup over them. Sweettablescapes did not…
Red Berry Chouquettes
Pate a choux is one of the easiest dough to prepare and allows you to make some delicious and impressive desserts: from the Paris-Brest or Religieuse to profiteroles and chouquettes, pate a choux makes for fluffy little puffs that are hard to resist. Sweettablescapes made chouquettes here and today, we are bringing them to the…

Spring Vegetable Quiche
Quiches are another go-to here at Sweettablescapes. We all usually have eggs and cream in the fridge which means that you can pretty much prepare a quiche any day you want with whatever vegetables you might have leftover and a bit of grated cheese. The old classic Quiche Lorraine uses bacon as the main event…
Leek Tart with Goat Cheese aka Flamiche aux poireaux
If you like caramelized onions and Pissaladiere, you will most likely enjoy this; Leeks are just as delicious as their onion cousins when slowly cooked in some fat. They softened and turn into a tender mix which also happens to work wonderfully in this Leek Tart that I also call a quiche for simplicity. You…
