It seems like spring has finally decided to show up here in Vancouver. We've had quite a few sunny days and this has tricked my mind into thinking that summer is right around the corner, which it most certainly is not.

Dark Chocolate Soufflés
Soufflés tend to have a certain mystique around them for some people. They see it as a delicate dessert that is fickle and temperamental. Only people who really know what they're doing can pull off a good soufflé. None of that is true. When you accept the fact that the soufflés will fall, they become just another dessert that anyone can do.
Salted Caramel Budino
I've decided to start a little project to make my kitchen less crowded and messy. My kitchen is very small to begin with. I have a cupboard dedicated to my baking ingredients, but that is also getting too small. I've sneaked a few things into my cooking cupboard, but now it's a big mess in all the cupboards. I've even had to store things like flour and sugar on top of my fridge.
It's time for a change! I have a plan.
Apple Tart
Big news, everybody! Huge news! Gigantic news!
Yesterday...... it was sunny.
Okay, yeah, not really big news for most people, but for the sun-deprived population of Vancouver, it was a massive deal. I'm not talking sunny with some clouds, maybe a bit of shade here and there, I'm talking full-on, no clouds, all day sunny. Unbelievable.
A New Look
You may have noticed that things look a bit different around here. Hopefully, you're liking what you see here! I figured it was time for a fresh look and a better name! Most people had trouble with the word 'cioccolato', which is actually just said, 'choco-lato'. It was tough to spell and didn't roll off the tongue very nicely. The layout was a bit drab and boring as well, so I figured I would kill two birds with one stone.
It is my pleasure to introduce to you, Hint of Vanilla, formally known as Cioccolato Etc.
Everything that used to be here is still here. I will continue to post the same delicious treats that I always have. I've added categories to make finding recipes easier, plus I now have social media buttons that actually go somewhere.
I hope you all enjoy my new blog as much as I do!
