Nana’s Lemon Cream Cheese Tarts

June 5, 2019 by Nicole 4 Comments

Nana's Lemon Cream Cheese Tarts | Culinary Cool

I’ve been fairly quiet around here lately (like, the last 7 months or so), but for good reason. I’m pregnant!  37 weeks to be exact, with baby set to arrive end of June (or any day now according to the doctor). The first trimester was plagued with nausea, fatigue and too many food aversions to…

Streuseled Zucchini Bundt Cake

September 19, 2018 by Nicole 15 Comments

Streuseled Zucchini Bundt Cake | Culinary Cool www.culinary-cool.com

With the end of summer, comes a bounty of fresh garden veggies, including zucchini.  Forget about zoodles, make this cinnamon laced zucchini cake instead. I firmly believe the best expression of a zucchini is through cake.  Whether it’s a bundt, a loaf, or muffins, it’s my favourite way to use it up.  I have no…

Boozy Birthday Cake Marshmallows

Boozy Birthday Cake Marshmallows | Culinary Cool

Skip the store and make fluffy marshmallows at home.  They’re made a million times better with Brithday Cake Vodka and sprinkles. 5 years. That’s how old Culinary Cool is. Seriously.  Where has the time gone?  I need to know. When I started this blog 5 years ago, I had no idea what I was doing. …

Strawberry and Whipped Goat Cheese Trifle

May 8, 2017 by Nicole 3 Comments

Strawberry and Whipped Goat Cheese Trifle | Culinary Cool www.culinary-cool.com

I’ve never successfully grown strawberries.  I bought a plant once and it produced a couple berries over the course of two seasons, and then died and never came back.  Typical.  I blame the gumbo-eque soil that plagues this part of our city (it’s a lake bed after all).  I have a bad track record with…

Celebrate Pi(e) Day

Lemon Mascarpone Tart | Culinary Cool

Every year, on March 14, aka Pi(e) Day (3.14, get it?) I bake a pie.  I’m heading down to Seattle this week and the last thing I need in my house is a whole pie.  Or half a pie.  Actually, any pie at all is a bad idea. Instead of leaving you high and dry,…

Cheddar Buttermilk Scones

Cheddar Buttermilk Scones | Culinary Cool www.culinary-cool.com

My mom is a vulture when it comes to homemade carb-alicious goodies. In all fairness, aren’t we all? I posted a picture of these Cheddar Buttermilk Scones on Instagram and I promptly receive a text, “U have any scones left?” She’s in such a rush to confirm the availability of scones she can’t even type…

Lemon Poppy Seed Coffee Cake

January 26, 2017 by Nicole 9 Comments

Lemon Poppy Seed Coffee Cake | Culinary Cool www.culinary-cool.com

Two weeks ago, I had a conversation with a lovely gal about baking.  She asked some hard-hitting questions like, “cake or pie?” Girl, don’t make me choose! If you’re wondering,  I chose cake. She couldn’t leave it at that, either.  She pressed further,  “why cake?” Why not cake?  There are so many aspects to cake that…

Confetti Cream Puffs

Confetti Cream Puffs | Culinary Cool

As of June 22nd, I’ve been blogging for 4 years!  It all started with a horrendous photo of Broccoli Salad, and I kept it a secret for quite some time.   Since then, it has morphed into SO much more than I could have imagined.  Food conferences, brand partnerships, freelance writing gigs, and befriending the most delightful fellow bloggers –…

Flapper Pie

October 8, 2015 by Nicole 2 Comments

Flapper Pie | Culinary Cool

Flapper Pie is no new recipe to the blog.  I blogged about it two years ago when I took part in the Canadian Food Experience Project.  But it was time for some updating and it definitely needed to be re-photographed.  With Thanksgiving just around the corner, followed shortly by Christmas, I figured now was as good…

No-Bake Funfetti Cheesecake

No-Bake Funfetti Cheesecake | Culinary Cool

Woah!  It might be cliche to say, but time sure flies when you’re having fun.  3 years ago I started this little ‘ole blog, and here we are today, eating No-Bake Funfetti Cheesecake to celebrate.  Looking back at the last two blogiversary posts, it seems that I have unintentionally started a theme of using sprinkles…
