From shortcake to scones, ice cream to sangria, there's a strawberry recipe for everyone.

Simple lemon cupcakes topped with tangy, easy three-ingredient cream cheese icing are a fresh, summery treat.

This chocolate cake recipe is our homage to McCain’s Deep ‘n Delicious cake. We used a piping bag fitted with a star tip to get the frosting just right, but you can also slather the frosting on and add sprinkles, we won’t tell.

"I grew up with sticky toffee pudding and it’s only ever made me happy in life. As a child I remember asking Mum, Nan, or Grandad, 'What’s for dessert, what’s for dessert?' and if it was sticky toffee pudding, that was just the best news—no matter what else was for dinner! And being honest, not much has changed. The reason that this recipe is the best I’ve ever had is because it relies on the fantastic Medjool dates, though you can use any other really high-quality dates; with muscovado sugar, subtle spices, and Earl Grey tea, it makes for a winning combo. It’s great served in a bundt pan like this and looks pretty spectacular, but feel free to go old school and bake it in a pan if you prefer. Enjoy."— Jamie Oliver
