01
Roasted rhubarb custard tart
As striking as it is scrumptious! It’s got creamy custard hiding underneath too.
TIP: We recommend CSR Pure Icing Sugar for this recipe as it dissolves easily and evenly.

Is it just us or is everything cuter in miniature form? It’s also perfectly acceptable to go for seconds with minis, we find!
TIP: These are in the oven for a long time, but the prep work for the mousse is made much quicker by using White Wings Choc Mousse Filling Mix.
03
Red velvet cupcakes
Red velvet cupcakes with chocolate buttercream
Red velvet cupcakes are always a crowd-pleaser, especially when topped with chocolate icing!
TIP: If you’re pushed for time or losing the attention span of the kids, try using White Wings Red Velvet Cupcakes Mix, or even a packet icing mix such as CSR Chocolate Flavoured Buttercream Icing Mix.
04
Baked coffee donuts
Coffee lovers will rate these delicious donuts. Skip the mess of a deep fryer and bake them instead — they’re practically a healthy treat!
TIP: You’ll need some CSR Coffee Sugar Crystals for these and they’ll be ready in 25 minutes. Quick and easy!
05
Chocolate brownies
The ultimate bite-sized sweet treat that you can share with friends and family… if you have to share that is!
TIP: Short on time? Try White Wings Double Choc Fudge Brownie Mix as a hack.
06
Choc-peanut caramel tart
This dessert is quite a show-stopper making it a great option if you’re having people over, but there’s also absolutely nothing stopping you from making it on a regular day at home either!
TIP: It serves 8-10 so you’ll need two packets of White Wings Choc Ganache Tart Mix to make it nice and full.
07
Caramel white choc cupcakes with caramel popcorn
Caramel white choc cupcakes with caramel popcorn
The trifecta of cupcakes: caramel, white chocolate and popcorn! Yes, please.
TIP: Flavoured buttercream icing really packs a punch and makes good cupcakes great. These use a butterscotch icing mix from CSR Sugar.

Raspberry and strawberry ricotta cheesecake
Another impressive dessert that takes a bit of prep work the day before, but the pay-off is well worth it.
TIP: You’ll feel a massive sense of pride and achievement making a cheesecake from scratch, but if it’s too daunting or time-consuming, you can pivot to a cheesecake tart and use this easy-as mix from White Wings.
09
Cinnamon scrolls with glaze
The perfect afternoon snack, cinnamon scrolls are fun and easy to make; the hardest thing is waiting for them to rest and cool!
TIP: The new White Wings Crafted Cinnamon Scrolls pack make these even easier. Just add milk, butter and eggs.
10
Apple crumble
Combining crunchy crumble and a cinnamon-infused apple filling, it’s no wonder this dish is a firm family favourite
TIP: It’s important to look for caster sugar that has uniform-sized crystals so that it dissolves and caramelises easily and evenly. Try CSR Caster Sugar.
