Food photography & styling workshop in Zagreb, Spring 2018

June 24, 2018 By travellingoven 1 Comment

It’s been more than 2 months already since I was planning to post some photos from my first Food photography & styling workshop that I organized in Zagreb with my friend and colleague Natalie from Natalies’ Happy Health! What can I say, all the usual things happened, you know life, too much work, various projects, days too short for all that you want/need to do and in the end before I realized Summer is already here and I’m actually planning my second workshop yaaay! And third lol! 😀 So I figured out it was about time to post these photos and say few words about the first workshop I had in April…

Cherry coconut crumble (GF, vegan)

June 9, 2018 By travellingoven Leave a Comment

Even if my last recipe was with cherries (did you try this yummy vegan Cherry chocolate cake?) I decided cherries deserve another recipe posted on the blog before their season is finished here in Croatia. I officially proclaim cherries my favourite fruit! 😀 But I’m also really really excited about blueberries and raspberries! What is your favourite Summer fruit? It’s difficult to choose, right?

I’ve been busy with different photography projects and planning workshops (I still NEED to post about my workshop held in April in Zagreb and I promise to do it soon!!!) so I didn’t have that much time for the blog but I’m happy I managed to post my travel story from beautiful Ljubljana, Slovenia and hopefully there will be more travel stories soon. I have actually something planned for July and I seriously can’t wait! If you are following me on my social media, I’ll be sharing there more before I manage to write a blog post so stay tuned if interested! 🙂 Now back to food yaaay and today’s recipe!

Charming Ljubljana, capital of Slovenia

June 6, 2018 By travellingoven 2 Comments

Have you ever visited Ljubljana? If you haven’t, you should be packing your luggage and hitting the road as it’s so worth visiting and spending some relaxing time just chilling by the river, wandering the picturesque little squares and streets, discovering pretty details on every corner and overall enjoying the super easy relaxed vibe that this city has to offer.

Recently I had an opportunity to spend a couple of days in Ljubljana and even if I visited the city before, quite a few years ago, I was again impressed with beautiful architecture, so much greenery and this wonderful atmosphere that puts you in the holiday mood straight away. Even if I was not there on holidays but rather a work related visit. Luckily I had just enough time for walks and taking photos, you guessed it right, my favourite thing to do when travelling! I was not able to see everything I wanted, like for example taking a funicular to Ljubljana castle that is situated on a little hill just above the city but you know what they say, you always need to leave something for next time! 😀 I bet the views from up there are amazing and can’t wait to go back and take pictures from there too!

I started my walk on Preseren Square, it’s a central square situated in the pedestrian zone and a major meeting point, also a place where lots of events and festivals are taking place. It’s named after the famous poet France Prešeren and makes a great starting point for exploring the city and also a place where you can sit, relax, listen to the street musicians and watch the world goes by, just like I did!

Cherry chocolate cake (vegan)

Usually I don’t post on the blog on weekends but today I’ll do it because I’m not sure I will have the time for that next week and I really really want to share this little Cherry chocolate cake with you! Anybody else excited that cherry season is finally here? I am enjoying it to the fullest because it lasts so short (just like the strawberries!) and before we know it, it will be gone. So let’s enjoy as many cherries and cherry recipes as we can, shall we?! 😀 I am eating cherry smoothie bowls for breakfast, cherry banana ice creams for dessert, oh and I should definitely bake again this cherry clafoutis! You get the picture, I LOVE cherries! So let’s go back to today’s recipe that is for everybody who loves chocolate + cherries combination who doesn’t, right?!) and is in the mood for healthier and just mildly sweet cake for a little treat.
