Spiced Rose Shortbread

August 19, 2019 By Dane McGregor Leave a Comment

Marshmallow and shortbread are two flavours and textures I believe are a match made in delicious heaven. The shortbread is always smooth and crumbly and the marshmallow, sweet and fluffy.

Red Velvet Cookie

August 5, 2018 By Dane McGregor 2 Comments

There’s something luxurious and romantic about Red Velvet. Perhaps it’s the deep red colour or the smooth connotation we get from the word velvet. Either way, the Red Velvet is always a very popular crowd pleaser.…

Coffee Biscotti Sticks

September 8, 2017 By Dane McGregor Leave a Comment

It’s hard to imagine going a day without a good cup of coffee and generally that’s just a quick stop at my local cafe on the way to work. Now though, Nespresso has released three new limited edition coffees inspired by barista’s craftsmanship, which means I can enjoy my ideal café style coffee without even leaving home!…

Honey Mustard Oatmeal Crackers

November 15, 2016 By Dane McGregor Leave a Comment

Kiwi summers are full of barbecues and making the most of the warm evening light. What also gets me excited about this season is the before-barbecue snacks and nibbles. A plentiful platter full of cheese, crackers, dips and fresh fruit screams summer for me and sets the scene for a perfect night. Whether it’s planned entertaining or those unexpected guests, it’s always good to either be prepared or have a quick, easy and affordable solution up your sleeve.

Neapolitan Biscotti

April 23, 2016 By Dane McGregor Leave a Comment

If you’re a lover of hot drinks, you’ll be very familiar with biscotti being the perfect pairing to dunk and crunch while sipping away on a tea or coffee. For me, it would have to be coffee. So I wanted to think of a fun idea for a new biscotti recipe that didn’t use the more popular ingredients such as nuts or dried fruit.

Pistachio Kisses

April 16, 2016 By Dane McGregor Leave a Comment

There’s something about pistachios, white chocolate and cranberries all mixed together. This got me thinking about making some soft spongy pistachio kisses filled with a white chocolate buttercream, plenty more pistachios and lots of dried cranberries.…

Lemon and Poppyseed Shortbread

April 11, 2016 By Dane McGregor Leave a Comment

The flavour combo of lemon and poppyseed can be found all over the internet in loaves, cakes, muffins and breads, but why is it? Apparently it’s the earthy, fruity and nutty flavours of the poppyseeds that pair perfectly with the bitterness of lemons and the sweetness of baking.

Weekends are for eating and _____!
TGIF, what do you have planned for this weekend? TGIF, what do you have planned for this weekend?
💥 Happy New Year to all my current and new swee 💥 Happy New Year to all my current and new sweet toothed Gatherers, let’s do a round of introductions.

My name’s Dane from Hamilton in New Zealand, and I’m the treat obsession face behind Baker Gatherer and am solely to blame for all these delicious posts and recipes.

I started the Baker Gatherer website in late 2015 as a place for me to experiment with baking and share recipes. I then started a Facebook page as a place to share those recipes and engage with other like minded foodies. After that I started this Instagram, which I consider my visual library full of cacti, flatlays and sweet treats galore.

Now, I’d like to take this opportunity to get to know you all a bit better. So feel free to introduce yourself in the comments below, let me know your favourite treats, your baking successes, your glorious fails, or simply ask me any burning questions.

I realise I can be a bit of a mystery (because I’d rather focus on the food), but let’s try and change that for 2023.

Six Quick Facts!

1. I’m a Virgo ♍️
2. I don’t do small talk 🙅🏽‍♂️
3. Watermelon is my favourite fruit 🍉
4. I’m obsessed with all things Space 🪐
5. I have a teaching and graphic design degree ✏️
6. I’m a perfectionist. Even my facts run shortest to longest ✔️
