Pretty cones of flower-shaped Italian gelato from Amorino. I appreciate how the “petals” of ice-cream are so beautifully shaped to resemble a rose in bloom. Flavors from top, left to right:  Bourbon Vanilla, Indian Alphonso Mango, Raspberry Willamette, Pistachio, Coffee, Speculos Biscuit, Amarena Cherry, Caramel with Salted Butter, Coffee, Stracciatella and Amorino Chocolate.

Sugar cookies from Eleni’s. From top: Friendly Ghosts, Monster’s Ball and Black Magic. Have a happy, fun-filled Halloween!

These photos are from IKEA baking cookbook called Hembakat är Bäst (Homemade is Best), photographed by Carl Kleiner and styled by Evelina Bratell (who worked on the Real Life Barbie photo shoot). What a novel way to show ingredients for a recipe.

This picture below makes me wanna bake something right now! Mmm… softened butter and dark chocolate.

Love how the flour mounds are styled, they remind me of the colorful spice pyramids at the souks of Morocco.
