Fancy sandwiches
Made with love for Mum. Say ‘Thank you’ with a sweet and savoury feast. Dainty sandwiches with tasty fillings are great for parties and can be made a few hours ahead, as long as you keep them covered and chilled. Try these two simple, yet delectable fillings.
Zucchini, feta and red onion tartlets

Pear and cinnamon cake

Passionfruit, lemon and yoghurt cake
This is one of those lemon yoghurt cakes that has it all – punchy flavour from the passionfruit and lemon, an incredible texture, and it keeps well. Nici Wickes’ lemon passionfruit cake is a winner
Mum’s plum cake

Apple-vanilla teacake with thick vanilla custard
There’s a hidden layer of thick vanilla custard in the centre of this cake that takes it from good to great. Serve it warm, but not too hot. Photography and recipe by Gourmet Traveller.
Chocolate & hazelnut slice
There are some things in the food world that just go together – basil and tomato, pork and apple, beer and potato chips – and, if you ask me, chocolate and hazelnuts. This slice is deliciously crunchy, gooey and caramelly – and I doubt it will last very long in the biscuit tin!
