Mousse with orange zest and Grand Marnier. This is a really good mousse! It has a hint of orange flavor coming from the orange zest and the Grand marnier.

Blueberry crumb cake is so moist and so good with a cup of coffee. We had too many desserts and so I took a piece of the blueberry crumb cake and ate it for breakfast! It was so delicious. Too bad I only took one piece because I could have another piece!

The Crêpes soufflé were a hit! I can only bake 6 Crêpes at the time and it they disappeared right away!
The Crêpe came out of the oven all puffed up and so gorgeous that nobody could resist them.
