Food • Home • The art of everyday life I’ll bring cake! Established in 2014.

It all started many years ago when I realized I was always the one to “bring cake!” Bringing the cake provided so much joy, not only in the designing, baking, decorating but in the smiles and enjoyment cake brought to family and friends that I baked for. This obsession turned into the creation of Pastry Lane. Hi my name is Lana, owner and creator of Pastry Lane based in Ferntree Gully, Melbourne. Pastry Lane creates made to order, bespoke sweets for dessert tables, celebration cakes, and sweet gift boxes. Edible gifts designed to give pleasure and send love to your family and friends. Quality ingredients are used along with love and care in creating your cakes and desserts.

End of season for our vine here. I have just loved passing by and picking a small bunch to munch on right there and then. Savouring the muscat grape flavour has seriously been something I will not forget.

Choosing to live a slower life.

“Slow living is not about losing time by going slowly; it’s about gaining time by doing the things that are most important to you.”

It’s hard to learn to live slower but I’m learning to love it the older I get.

My little swallows….. they greeted us in Samos in June. Singing early every morning and throughout the day even towards night time just above our house. They will stay with me long before their migration to Africa in late late August early September when they left us.

Painted them here to remember them and their beautiful song.

Sourdough baking here has developed to new techniques. I’ve learnt that dusting with corn meal (maize, corn meal or polenta) makes for a nicer crust with a golden yellow tinge.
Also baking in a clay pot is different to ceramic or cast iron as this method requires cold oven, cold pot to bake. Clay works differently and does not like going from hot to cold or cold to hot.

The days are sometimes just a little cooler now. Life is more about strolling the little streets of Pythagorio, long coffees at our favourite cafes, people watching and soaking it all in.

Cakes & desserts I made whilst in Samos this year.

Being here always inspires me to cook with all the seasonal produce available. Some a bought from local growers and some are given by dear friends from their own harvest.

It certainly allows me to keep creating, experimenting and enjoying food in this environment.

I have had my fill of figs this year. So much so that there is more than enough for me to make some more fig desserts.

This time, Honeyed Fig Cakes. Fresh figs sautéed with some honey and lots of flavour and goodness within this batter.

Added this to my growing list of Greek Sweet recipes on my website. Go check it out. Link in bio to get to it. I’ll also post it with a link on one of my stories.

Love you know if you make any of my recipes. Send me a message.

Painting has always taken me away into another little world. Relaxing, therapeutic, creativity and productivity. I love painting on rock pebbles I selectively find on the beach. Any requests/orders I’m in……
