Boys at The Beach ~ 2
Hazbin ~RadioApple+Static ~ 4.3 k
The Explicit Part 2
this is completely a crack fic where Lucifer, Alastor, and Vox go to a beach upstairs in human form. And things get heated.
The sun was starting to hang low on the horizon when Lucifer decided he was starving and went to dig into the bright red cooler. 
The angel pulled out an array of dishes—far from the usual beach fare. 
Shrimp remoulade served chilled across a slice of crusty French bread. Delicate crab cakes with a tangy hot sauce. Mini muffulettas with layers of meats, cheeses, and olives. 
And there was even dessert—individual banana bread pudding cups. 
“I’m impressed, Your Majesty.” Vox drawled, leaning forward to inspect the spread. “This is quite the feast.”
“Oh, you like the food huh?” Lucifer chuckled, an angelic smirk crossing his lips. “Better than a perfect little housewife could whip up, huh?” 
Alastor’s ears pricked, not liking where this was going, though Vox was ready to agree with anything the King said as he stuffed a muffuletta into his mouth. 
“Well, I can’t take the credit—Alastor made it all.”
The Radio Demon’s eye was twitching to the point he could not enjoy his rival choking on his mouthful. 
Vox’s eyes went wide as he turned to Alastor. “You can cook?”
The brunette pushed his glasses up the freckles on his nose and his smirk got a little bit more smug. “I assure you, I have many talents that you are entirely unaware of.” 
Vox swallowed, thickly. 
“Besides,” Alastor shrugged it off. “It wouldn’t due to serve the King of Hell a bunch of pre-packaged rubbish.”
“I suppose not,” Vox conceded, eyeing the artfully arranged platters. Despite himself, his mouth watered at the tantalizing aromas wafting from the cooler. “I have to admit, it does look... decent.”
 “High praise indeed, coming from you!” Alastor’s laugh crackled like radio static. “Perhaps you’d care for a taste? I assure you, my culinary skills are quite beyond up to par.”
As Vox reached for a crab cake, he couldn’t help but wonder what other hidden talents the Radio Demon might possess. 
It was infuriating and intriguing in equal measure.
The angel and the demons fell into a silence as they savored the gourmet spread, the only sounds the gentle lapping of waves and the occasional clink of aluminum cans. 
Vox found himself reluctantly impressed by Alastor’s culinary prowess, though he’d sooner short-circuit than admit it aloud.
As the sun began its descent, painting the sky in vibrant hues of orange and pink, Vox noticed a subtle shift in the atmosphere.
 Lucifer, who the television demon considered to be this untouchably powerful figure, leaned against Alastor’s shoulder with a contented sigh.
“You know,” The King mused, his voice uncharacteristically soft, “one of the things I truly loved about Earth were the sunsets. Hell has its charms, but nothing quite compares to this.”
 The demon’s eyes widened as he spotted their hands intertwined on the beach blanket. 
Vox felt like he was intruding on an intimate moment. He cleared his throat awkwardly. “It’s, uh, certainly something.”
Alastor’s eyes darted to Vox, noticing his gaze on their linked hands. The Radio Demon’s perpetual smile tightened almost imperceptibly as he pulled away from Lucifer.
“Well!” Alastor announced, his voice overly cheerful. “I think I’ll take a little stroll after our delightful repast.”
Before anyone could respond, the Radio Demon vanished into the towering driftwood, leaving Vox and Lucifer alone on the beach.
The angel had a crown on his face that looked thoughtful, and the demon stayed stiffly silent. Still feeling like he was intruding. 
Vox’s gaze fell on the book Alastor had left behind, curiosity getting the better of him. He reached for it, flipping it over to read the cover.
If he still had his television head, it might have just blue-screened. “Is this... a chick book?”
Vox blinked, finally discarding his glasses to confirm—yep, it was a romance novel. 
The demon was momentarily distracted by the unexpected discovery of Alastor’s literary tastes.
 When he looked up again, he found himself alone on the expansive beach. The setting sun cast long shadows across the sand, and an eerie stillness settled over the area.
“Your Highness?” Vox called out, his voice echoing in the emptiness. “Radio Star?”
No one answered him. 
Unease prickling at his circuits, Vox rose to his feet, scanning the shoreline. His gaze fell upon the looming driftwood maze; a forest of gnarled branches reaching skyward like skeletal fingers. Without much choice, he ventured into the labyrinth of bleached wood.
~~~~🌊~~~~
“Hello?” he called again, pushing aside a tangle of branches. “Anyone there?”
As he rounded a particularly large arid tree, Vox froze. 
There, nestled behind a twist of roots, stood Alastor and Lucifer. The Radio Demon, in his real form but still in his beach clothes, leaned casually against a weathered trunk, his signature grin taken an amicable twist as he ducked his head to the King of Hell.
Vox flickered with pure shock. He’d never seen Alastor so...open. The deer demon’s usual rigid posture had softened, and he seemed utterly unbothered by the lack of personal space between them.
Or maybe the space between them was very personal
“You should have seen his face, my dear,” Alastor chuckled, his voice a low purr. “Absolutely priceless!”
Lucifer laughed, a sound like tinkling bells. “Oh, I can imagine. You’re vicious, aren’t ya Bambi?”
Vox felt a twinge of...something. Jealousy? Surely not. Insecure? The fuckers better not be talking about him. He was about to announce his presence when Lucifer’s next move stopped him cold.
The fallen angel’s hand trailed up Alastor’s chest, sliding up beneath the swirling pattern of the red overshirt. 
Holy shit. Vox’s mind was reeling—certain that Alastor was finally going to break and snap at being touched. 
The television demon’s circuits nearly fried as Lucifer rose on his toes, pressing a tender kiss.
Alastor seemed frozen on the spot, for a long moment.
Then the Radio Demon’s hand lifted, curled around Lucifer’s neck to pull the angel’s head back—and press a searing kiss down his throat. 
Alastor’s lips trailed a path down, eliciting a soft gasp from the devil himself.
Vox felt his face heating up, static crackling across his skin as his irises flashed through red and blue.
 He couldn’t tear his eyes away from the scene unfolding before him. 
A realization hit him like a ton of bricks: Alastor, the prudish, touch-averse Radio Demon, was not only allowing Lucifer’s advances because he was the King—he was actively participating in it.
“Fucking call me a brownnoser, huh?” Vox hissed bitterly, before he could stop himself or clap a hand over his mouth. 
Alastor’s eyes snapped open, glowing an infernal scarlet. Without breaking contact with Lucifer’s throat, he murmured. “It seems we have an audience, my dear.”
The angel laughed in his hold. 
“Come out come out Voxy. Hiding isn’t very becoming of an Overlord, now is it?”
Panic surged through Vox’s system. He’d just been caught creeping on the fucking King of Hell. And Alastor. How the fuck was he supposed to explain that? 
Or the way his human face was heating up with a blush. 
Scrambling for an excuse, Vox stepped out from behind the driftwood, defaulted what he was good at—throwing jabs at his rival.
“I wasn’t hiding, Your Majesty! I was just…stunned by Alastor’s pathetic attempts at making a fool of himself.” Vox frowned, but the insult had already fumbled its way out of his mouth. 
Alastor gave a derisive snort.
“That so?” Lucifer’s eyebrow arched, a mischievous glint in his golden eyes as Alastor released his hold. “And I suppose you think you could do better, hmm?”
Vox’s face burned like the sun had scorched him for hours. He opened his mouth to retort, but no words came out.
Alastor’s eyes narrowed, a low growl rumbling in his throat as he glowered at Vox.
Lucifer’s grin widened, showing a hint of sharp teeth. “Well then, Vox,” he snickered, “put up or shut up.”
“I…Sire—” 
Vox hesitated, his usual bravado faltering under the intense gazes of both Alastor and Lucifer. Before he could muster a response, golden magic wrapped around his waist, and dragged him into the driftwood clearing.
“Don’t duck out now, big guy.” Lucifer smirked, flicking out his forked tongue as he grabbed the television demon by his teal stripes and dragged him down. 
As their lips met, Vox’s mind went blank, forgetting every witty comeback he’d ever crafted and every kiss he’d ever had. The only thought he had was to open his mouth and let the serpent tongue plunder him. Wondering how much of this sweet taste belonged to the deer demon. 
Alastor watched with narrowed eyes, his perpetual smile tightening as he snorted. “How utterly sloppy,” he sneered, turning on his heel to step back. “I think I’ve seen quite enough of this spectacle.”
Lucifer’s hand shot out, fingers wrapping around the Radio Demon’s wrist. “Not so fast, Bambi,” Lucifer cooed, breaking away from Vox. “The show’s only just begun.”
Vox blinked in surprise as Alastor actually stilled, remaining rooted to the spot despite his obvious disdain.
“Why don’t you show us how it’s really done?” Lucifer said, turning his attention back to Alastor with a challenging smirk. 
Alastor’s eyes flashed dangerously. “You’re playing with fire, my King,” he warned, voice low and crackling with static.
“Then burn me,” Lucifer whispered back.
A moment passed between the two, where a silent understanding took hold. 
Alastor’s claws seized a fistful of Lucifer’s golden hair, yanking him close. Their lips crashed together in a fierce, forceful kiss that took even Vox’s breath away.
Vox watched, transfixed, as Alastor pressed Lucifer back against the driftwood. There was nothing gentle about the way the Radio Demon’s hands roamed over the fallen angel’s body, fingers digging into his hips possessively.
Holy fucking shit. 
Vox felt his human lips pull downward into an actual pout as he watched Alastor prove that he could talk the talk and walk the walk. 
The ache in the television demon’s chest had nothing to do with missing Lucifer’s forked tongue; his eyes were on the red fingers locked in the golden hair. 
Dammit all. He was wishing he was under that sharp smile. 
He tried to school his expression into one of indifference, but Alastor, ever perceptive, caught the longing in Vox’s gaze. Making the other demon’s gut curl with want and humiliation. 
The King of Hell pushed gently against Alastor’s chest, breaking their kiss.
“Oh Al,” Lucifer purred, his voice honey-sweet, “I think there’s someone else who’d like a taste.”
Alastor’s eyes narrowed. “Surely, you jest.”
Lucifer nodded towards Vox, a mischievous glint in his eye. 
“What?” Vox and Alastor exclaimed in unison, their eyes meeting with a clash and a sneer from the deer demon.
Vox’s circuits thrummed with want, but his pride refused to let him give in so easily. “As if I’d want that fucker’s mouth anywhere near me,” he scoffed, even as his inner voice screamed for him to shut up and take the opportunity.
“You would be fortunate if I didn’t rip out your throat.” Alastor growled, his smile turned sinister as it pulled back over his gnashed teeth. 
Lucifer, undeterred, began trailing kisses up along Alastor’s throat. He paused at a spot just below Alastor’s jaw—causing the Radio Demon to shudder.
“Come now, darling,” Lucifer murmured against Alastor’s skin. “Just a little kiss. He’s so desperate for it.”
Vox burned bright with embarrassment. “I do not—” he began to protest, but the words died in his throat as Alastor’s crimson gaze locked onto him, and actually tilted his head. Like he was consider it.
Alastor’s trademark grin widened, a hint of malice glinting in his eyes. “Oh, very well,” he drawled, his voice dripping with sarcasm. “If it’ll shut you both up.”
In one fluid motion, Alastor’s hand shot out, grasping Vox by the chin firmly.
 The TV demon barely had time to process what was happening before Alastor’s lips were on his and making him short-circuit. 
 It was far from gentle—a clash of teeth and static electricity that sent sparks flying.
Vox’s pride crumbled under the Radio Demon’s mouth.
 A low moan escaped him, unbidden, as Alastor’s tongue traced the edge of his lips, demanding entrance. Submission. 
Vox berated himself, even as his knees threatened to give out. He hated how much he was enjoying this, how desperately he’d wanted it. But Alastor was kissing him like he wanted to consume him, whole, and Vox found himself powerless to resist.
Lucifer watched the scene unfold with undisguised glee, practically bouncing with excitement. As Alastor finally pulled away, leaving Vox dazed and panting, the fallen angel clapped his hands together.
“You know, this was on my beach day to-do list as well!” Lucifer exclaimed. 
Alastor raised an eyebrow,  looking and sounding gallingly uneffected by the state he’d left Vox in. “What was?”
“Sex on the beach!” Lucifer replied with a wink.
Vox’s jaw dropped, his screen flickering in shock. Alastor, for his part, looked equally taken aback.
“Not going to happen.” Alastor huffed, shoving Vox back into some dried out tree roots. 
Lucifer’s eyes gleamed as he grabbed Alastor by his overshirt, pulling him close. “Oh, come on, darling,” he purred, winding his arms around Alastor’s narrow waist. “Don’t be such a spoilsport.”
To Vox’s utter astonishment, he saw the Radio Demon’s resolve begin to waiver. One of his arms curled around the devil’s middle. 
Lucifer was leaning up on his toes, peppering Alastor with more kisses up along his cheek, under his ear, before reaching up and tugging the fuzzy appendage down to his lips.
“Just imagine it...your enemy on his knees, begging for your cock...”
“I would never fucking—” Vox bristled at Lucifer’s words, spluttering indignantly. “—for a fucking fossil to—whatever!”
“Really? Are you sure about that?” Lucifer turned to him, a knowing smirk playing on his lips.  He gestured around the deserted beach. “No one would ever know but us. And this might be your only chance to get a taste of Alastor’s…talents.”
Vox’s circuits buzzed with conflicting emotions—desire, pride, and a burning curiosity he couldn’t quash. He opened his mouth to retort, but no words came out.
Alastor’s eyes suddenly blazed crimson, his grin widening to reveal all of his sharp teeth. He fixed Vox with a predatory gaze that sent shivers down the television demon’s spine.
“Well then, if you truly are desperate, Vox,” Alastor purred, his voice dripping with dark promise. “Beg me.”
Vox’s vision swirled with red. But, to his horror, he found himself sinking to his knees in the cooling sand. His circuits hummed with mortification and arousal as he lowered his head in supplication. “Please, Alastor... let me... I-I... I want to... please...”
The Radio Demon had never smirked like this in his life or death, staring down at the humbled television demon…as he gave an unimpressed shrug. 
“Wicked thing you are.” Lucifer gave a delighted chuckle. “He’s hard to impress Vox, you’ve gotta try harder.”
The demon on his knees spluttered, feeling two inches tall before the two men. 
“Perhaps…a little demonstration would convince me.” Alastor said, nonchalant as ever. Driving the other demon wild. 
“Just tell me what the fuck you want,” Vox growled through grit teeth. 
Alastor’s smile glowered down at him, shivering down his spine, as the red fingers drew down along Lucifer’s marbled skin and between the angel’s legs. 
“You can’t be fucking serious.” Vox snarled. 
“Deadly.” Alastor purred. “Unless…you think you are not worth of pleasuring the king.” 
Vox couldn’t stand the heavy implication on the demon’s tongue. 
Embarrassment and arousal warring within him, the television demon turned his attention to Lucifer’s bulging swim trunks. His fingers trembled as he reached for the drawstrings. 
His eyes locked with Lucifer’s smug, satisfied grin. With a flourish, Vox exposed Lucifer’s impressive erection, already leaking with anticipation.
Lucifer hissed as Vox’s dextrous fingers teased his shaft, and Alastor shifted closer to the angel, leering over the demon on his knees. 
“Go on.”
Vox’s cheeks burned as he wrapped his mouth around the swollen head of Lucifer’s cock, his tongue flicking out to taste the sweet pre-cum. Wondering if it was just angels that tasted so sweet. 
 Lucifer moaned, and Vox couldn’t help but feel a twisted sense of accomplishment as Alastor’s fingers twitched along the devil’s hip. 
He slid his lips further down, taking more of the angelic shaft into his mouth, his throat clenching around the intrusion.
“Mmm, that’s it,” Lucifer purred, running his fingers through Vox’s inky black hair. “I knew you had it in you.”
In the periphery, Vox saw Alastor’s shorts tenting outwards, and the television demon’s eyes glued to the debauched display. 
Vox’s circuits shorted with lust and humiliation, but he couldn’t seem to stop himself.
“Fuck,” Lucifer moaned, gripping Vox’s hair tighter. “You sure make for a good cockwarmer, picture box.”
Vox’s eyes flashed with fury, but he didn’t stop his ministrations. He was determined to show what he could do, to seize this unimaginable moment, even if it meant swallowing his pride—literally.
Lucifer’s moans grew louder, and Vox realized with another shock of shame that he was growing hard in his swimsuit. More than just a flash of arousal.
Alastor’s crimson eyes on him, on how he sank down the angel’s shaft, was making a growing damp spot in his shorts and driving a hunger that terrified the demon’s ego. 
Lucifer’s fingers sliped from Vox’s hair, sliding back up Alastor’s chest to curl in his tight black shirt and yank him down. “You have to try his mouth, Bambi.”
“As you wish, my King.”
Suddenly, Alastor’s hand was in Vox’s hair, pulling him back. 
The television demon couldn’t hold the whine that ripped from his throat as Lucifer’s cock slipped from his mouth. But Alastor’s grip was bruising. 
Vox’s eyes flicked up to meet Alastor’s, and he saw the hunger there. The demon’s eyes were glowing red, and his fangs were on full display as he panted.
 Vox’s heart pounded in his chest, his body trembling with anticipation.
He watched as Alastor pulled his length from his shorts—revealing his cock. 
It was slender and long like the deer demon’s body, and just like the pattern of his arms and legs, his cock darkened from a gray tan to pitch black at the tip. 
Vox’s eyes widened, and he licked his lips involuntarily. 
Alastor chuckled darkly, grabbing Vox’s chin and forcing him to look up.
“Ask nicely,” he demanded, the filter vanished from his voice. No jaunty, high accent or crackle of static. It was a voice that must be obeyed. 
Vox’s pride rebelled at the command, but his body betrayed him. He was desperate to feel Alastor’s cock in his mouth, to taste the demon’s lust and power.
“Please, ” he whimpered, his voice hoarse from sucking Lucifer’s cock. “Fuck my throat, Alastor.”
Alastor’s eyes narrowed, but he said nothing. He simply grabbed Vox’s hair and forced the demon’s head down onto his cock. He thrust his hips forward, hitting the back of Vox’s throat. 
Vox gagged, his eyes watering, but he kept sucking, his own arousal building with every strangled sound that escaped his abused throat.
He gagged again, but Alastor didn’t let up. He held Vox’s head in place, thrusting his hips forward and fucking Vox’s throat roughly.
 Vox could feel his cock straining against the rough swimsuit material.
He moaned, the sound muffled by Alastor’s cock. 
He could hear Lucifer’s laughter in the background, but he didn’t care. 
All that mattered…was pleasing Alastor.
“Mm, I suppose he is mouth is…tolerable enough.” The Radio Demon tutted. 
And Vox burned with humiliation all over again? Tolerable? Barely adequate??
Alastor wasn’t even speaking to him! His eyes and his smirk were on Lucifer, leaning to the angel to kiss him languidly. 
Ignoring that Vox was literally sucking his dick.
Which was fucking humiliating…and somehow, even fucking hotter. Vox redoubled his efforts, his tongue swirling around the dark head of Alastor’s cock before sucking down his length, his mouth a blur as he tried to please his enemy. His own prick leaking down his thighs. 
The hand in his hair was loose, lazy in his hold. 
Vox stared daggers up at the Radio Demon, barely catching the scarlet sclera as Alastor leaned over to casually whisper something filthy into Lucifer’s ear. 
The devil bit his bottom lip.. 
And the demon saw why. The hand Alastor was paying attention to was disappearing into Lucifer’s shorts. His wrist moving slow, steady, hitching upward. Obviously thrusting those long fingers into the angel’s hole. 
Vox’s cheeks burned with shame, and he redoubled his efforts. Fighting for the Radio Demon’s focus, for his attention as he hollowed his cheeks and sucked harder, his tongue running along the sensitive underside of his shaft. 
Alastor let out a low growl. And Vox felt a spark of triumph in his chest as the muscles of the demon’s thighs tensed—and his own orgasm built as Alastor’s did. 
The deer demon’s lips pulled back from Lucifer’s, driving Vox wild as his eyes clenched shut and a little pant came from his lips. 
Vox moaned, his own arousal building to a fever pitch. He could feel his cock straining against his shorts, could feel the telltale tingling in his spine.
Lucifer whispered something in Alastor’s ear that made the demon chuckle. 
Before Vox could wonder, Alastor’s heavy-lidded eyes opened, and finally landed on his. 
“Vox…” he purred in that irresistible voice. “Good boy.” 
The television demon let out a strangled cry, his orgasm crashing into him like a tidal wave. His cock pulsed as his come soaked his swimsuit. 
When Vox came back to reality he realized what he’d done. Creamed his shorts so damn hard he’d burst out of human form—his bliss faded to utter humiliation. And he burned with it. 
He didn’t want to open his eyes. Didn’t want to see Lucifer’s judgement and the mirth that would be in Alastor’s face at his shame. 
Vox expected to hear laughter at his expense—but what he heard was a low, pleasured gasp. 
His mismatched eyes opened and saw that neither Alastor or Lucifer were giving him the time of night. 
The Radio Demon had the Devil pressed back against the driftwood tree trunk, claws dug into the bark as pale legs wrapped desperately around his narrow waist. 
Lucifer’s shorts laid discarded in the sand as the two tangled in their primal embrace. The angel’s head was thrown back in bliss, a little breath punched from his lips with every snap of Alastor’s hips. 
Vox’s euphoria evaporated. Replaced by a bitter jealousy. 
The demon’s hooded eyes locked onto Lucifer’s, his lips curled into a satisfied smirk. 
Vox ached with envy, wishing he were the one being so thoroughly taken. Trembling as Lucifer came on Alastor’s cock. 
The Radio Demon stilled as the angel’s panting slowed, letting him catch his breath. 
Lucifer leaned up, whispering something to Alastor—and the red gaze flickered towards Vox, his eyebrow arched. 
His eyes were dark with desire, and the television demon felt a shiver run down his spine. 
A wicked grin spread over the Radio Demon’s face. And he nodded. 
“Hey, Voxy…” Lucifer called in that sing-song voice of his, as the demon let him back down onto his feet. “C’mere.” 
His brain blue-screened all over again. 
A cool ocean breeze swept across the beach, sending a shiver down Vox’s spine as he watched Alastor framed against the star-dotted sky. The demon pulled back, his red fingers wrapped around the dark slink of his cock. 
 Vox hesitated. Wondering what more they could want from him when they were clearly wrapped up in each other. 
“Come on,” Lucifer crooked his fingers. 
Alastor said nothing, but simply stroked over his straining cock. 
Saliva pooled in Vox’s mouth like he was starving. 
He didn’t even think to brush the sand from his blue knees as he moved to stand—when Alastor finally spoke. 
“Ah-ah,” He purred, looking over at him with glowing red eyes, heavy with lust. “Crawl.”
“What the fuck!?” Vox snapped as his screen flashed and glitched indignantly. 
“Did I stutter?” Alastor tilted his head, his pupils turned to slits. “If you want to taste my come…then you’ll crawl to me.” 
Vox dug his teal claws into the sand, already moving, his screen burning red as he crawled his way to Alastor. Rewarded with the Radio Demon’s gasp as he stroked over his own glistening length. 
Alastor grabbed the flat head, watching his enemy’s digital eyes blown and begging as he stroked himself—until he finally came, splattering Vox’s screen with his come. 
The television demon burned with utter humiliation…and a strange satisfaction at the taste on his tongue, knowing that he had finally pleased Alastor. 
~~~~🌊~~~~
The sun had long since set when Lucifer wrapped himself around Alastor, pillowing into the demon’s chest where they lay back on the beach blanket. Sand clinging to their clothing and skin. 
“See,” Lucifer grinned, folding his fingers under his chin as he looked at the Radio Demon. “I told ya beach day was a great idea.” 
Alastor snorted, rolling his eyes behind his oval glasses. “Well, it certainly was an experience.”
“Sure was.” Lucifer grinned. 
A curse and thump snapped their attention to Vox, stumbling through the portal Lucifer had left open to carry back their gear to hell. 
“You alright Voxy?” Lucifer called. 
The demon blustered, covering his face—which seemed to have turned permanently cherry-red, as he cleared his throat. “Of course, Your Majesty. Just, have to get back to work. I had a lovely—”
Alastor leaned up on his elbows, cocking an eyebrow as he met the digital eyes. 
Vox’s screen blanked, displaying a broadcasting error as he fell through the portal back into his office. 
“And no one in Hell will ever believe it.” Alastor chuckled.

Sweet Wine Lingonberry Compote
Tumblr media
Mum made this Sweet Wine Lingonberry Compote at Christmastime, to serve with duck, as a condiment. I fancied that this delicately sweet and slightly tart sauce would also be wonderful drizzled onto ice cream, swirled into yoghurt or used as a coulis for desserts. And so it is! Plus, it makes good use of excellent leftover sweet white wine, lingering in the refrigerator since the Holidays, adding a touch of festive luxury to your morning porridge and your roast chicken alike!
Ingredients (makes about a cup):
1 cup frozen lingonberries
1/2 cup sweet white wine (but not too sweet, like a good Côtes de Gascogne)
1 tablespoon caster sugar
1 tablespoon pure local honey (something fragrant, like heather)
In a small saucepan, combine frozen lingonberries and sweet white wine. Bring to a slow boil over medium heat. Once boiling, reduce heat to medium, and simmer, stirring often, for about 15 minutes, until berries break up and reduce into a compote.
Stir in caster sugar and honey until dissolved.
Serve Sweet Wine Lingonberry Compote warm, onto thick yoghurt, Ice Cream, French Toast, or with game or poultry, or swirl, once cold, into cake batters, porridge...

Tea Cakes Online: Exploring the Delights of Digital Dessert Shopping
Tumblr media
In a world where digital transformation is reshaping every aspect of our lives, the culinary world is not left untouched. Among the myriad of delicacies that have found their way into the e-commerce ecosystem, tea cakes stand out as a particularly delightful treat. These soft, spongy, and often exquisitely flavored cakes, perfect companions to a hot cup of tea, have a rich history and an even richer presence online. This article delves into the world of tea cakes online, exploring their varieties, the convenience of online shopping, and tips for finding the perfect tea cake.
A Brief History of Tea Cakes
Tea cakes have a storied past, with origins tracing back to different parts of the world. In England, tea cakes are typically light, yeast-based buns, often containing dried fruits like currants. In the Southern United States, they take the form of a dense, sweet cookie. Scandinavian versions, such as the Swedish “kaka,” are more like sponge cakes, often flavored with spices. This diversity in preparation and flavor profiles adds to the allure of tea cakes, making them a versatile treat that caters to various tastes and preferences.
The Rise of Online Tea Cake Shops
With the advent of the internet, traditional shopping habits have seen a significant shift. The online marketplace for tea cakes has grown exponentially, driven by the demand for convenience, variety, and accessibility. Numerous bakeries and specialty stores now offer their unique tea cakes through user-friendly websites and apps. This digital shift allows customers to explore a global array of tea cakes from the comfort of their homes.
Varieties to Savor
The online market for tea cakes offers an impressive variety that caters to every palate. From traditional English tea cakes studded with raisins and spices to delicate French madeleines with a hint of lemon zest, the options are endless. Online shops often feature exotic flavors and ingredients, such as matcha green tea, lavender, and earl grey-infused cakes. Seasonal variations, including pumpkin spice for autumn and peppermint for winter, provide a festive touch.
The Convenience of Online Shopping
Shopping for tea cakes online offers unparalleled convenience. The ease of browsing through a wide selection, reading detailed descriptions, and checking customer reviews ensures an informed purchase. Many online stores provide customization options, allowing customers to select specific flavors, ingredients, or even gluten-free and vegan versions. The ability to place an order at any time and have it delivered directly to your doorstep adds to the appeal.
Navigating Online Tea Cake Shops
Finding the perfect tea cake online requires a bit of navigation and knowledge. Here are some tips to help you make the best choice:
Read Reviews: Customer reviews can provide valuable insights into the quality and taste of the tea cakes. Look for shops with high ratings and positive feedback.
Check Ingredients: Ensure that the ingredients listed meet your dietary preferences or restrictions. Many online shops cater to specific dietary needs, such as gluten-free, vegan, or nut-free options.
Look for Specialty Shops: Specialty bakeries often offer more authentic and high-quality tea cakes compared to generic online stores. These shops might also provide unique flavors and artisanal touches.
Consider Shipping and Delivery: Check the shipping policies, especially if you’re ordering from a different region. Some tea cakes are delicate and might require special packaging to maintain freshness.
Compare Prices: Prices can vary significantly between different shops. Compare prices and consider the value for money, including shipping costs.
The Joy of Gifting Tea Cakes
Tea cakes make for an excellent gift, especially when purchased from online stores that offer elegant packaging and delivery options. Many shops provide gift boxes or baskets that include a selection of tea cakes along with complementary items like tea bags or preserves. Personalizing the gift with a message or choosing a themed box for occasions such as birthdays, anniversaries, or holidays can add a special touch.
Supporting Small Businesses
By purchasing tea cakes online, especially from artisanal and local bakeries, you support small businesses. These businesses often rely heavily on online sales, and your purchase can make a significant impact. Moreover, small bakeries tend to use high-quality, locally sourced ingredients, ensuring a superior product.

Exploring the Wonderful World of Bakeries: A Friendly Guide
Welcome readers to a delightful journey into the world of bakeries. Whether you have a sweet tooth or a love for freshly baked bread, this blog post aims to provide you with a friendly guide to understanding and enjoying the bakery experience. From the art and science behind baking to the different types of bakeries and must-try bakery in Melbourne items, we will explore it all. So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and let's dive into the wonderful world of bakeries!
Tumblr media
I. The Art and Science Behind Baking:
Baking is a beautiful combination of art and science. It involves precise measurements, the right ingredients, and various mixing techniques to create scrumptious delights. Flour, sugar, eggs, butter, and leavening agents are the building blocks of many baked goods. Each ingredient plays a crucial role in the final outcome, and understanding their properties is key to successful baking.
Mixing techniques also play a vital role in achieving the desired texture and structure of baked goods. From creaming butter and sugar to folding egg whites, each method brings a unique result. Furthermore, oven temperatures are crucial in determining the final outcome of the baked goods. Whether it's a high temperature for crusty bread or a lower temperature for delicate pastries, precision is essential.
Baking has a rich history that spans centuries. It has evolved from ancient civilizations using hot stones to bake flatbreads to modern-day ovens and advanced techniques. The artistry behind baking has been passed down through generations, and it continues to evolve with new flavors and trends.
II. Types of Bakeries:
Bakeries come in many different shapes and sizes, each with its own unique characteristics, specialties, and ambiance. Artisanal bakeries are known for their handcrafted bread and pastries, often using traditional and time-tested methods. Patisseries, on the other hand, focus on elegant and delicate pastries, cakes, and desserts. These French-inspired establishments are a haven for those with a sweet tooth.
Neighborhood bakeries are the heart and soul of the community. They offer a wide range of baked goods, from fresh bread to delectable pastries, and often become a gathering place for locals. These cozy bakeries exude warmth and familiarity.
Personal anecdotes and experiences can make the exploration of different types of bakeries more relatable. Remember the time you stumbled upon a hidden gem of a bakery during your travels, or the neighborhood bakery that always had your favorite treat waiting for you? These stories add a personal touch to the blog, making it more engaging for readers.
III. Must-Try Bakery Items:
Now, let's tantalize your taste buds with a list of must-try bakery items. The aroma of freshly baked croissants, the crusty perfection of a baguette, the melt-in-your-mouth goodness of a cupcake - each item has its own unique features that make it special and enjoyable.
Croissants, with their buttery and flaky layers, are a classic French pastry that is loved worldwide. Baguettes, with their crisp crust and soft interior, are the epitome of French bread. Cupcakes, with their endless flavor combinations and adorable decorations, are a treat for both the eyes and the taste buds. Pies, with their buttery crusts and luscious fillings, bring comfort and nostalgia. And who can resist a warm, gooey chocolate chip cookie straight from the oven?
To add excitement to these classic bakery items, suggest popular flavor combinations or variations. Think chocolate croissants, stuffed baguettes, or even unusual cookie flavors like lavender and lemon. The possibilities are endless, and experimenting with flavors can lead to delightful surprises.
IV. Navigating Specialty Diets at Bakeries:
Dietary restrictions should not hinder the enjoyment of bakery treats. Thankfully, many bakeries now offer options for those with gluten-free, vegan, or other dietary needs. When visiting bakeries, it's important to communicate your dietary restrictions to the staff, who can guide you towards suitable options.
Gluten-free baking has come a long way, and there are now alternatives like almond flour, coconut flour, and gluten-free baking mixes that produce delicious results. Vegan baking substitutes ingredients like eggs and dairy with plant-based alternatives like flax eggs, almond milk, or coconut oil. With a little awareness and communication, those with dietary restrictions can still indulge in the joy of bakery treats.
  V. Etiquette Tips for Visiting Bakeries:
Visiting a bakery is not just about the delicious treats; it's also about the experience. To ensure a pleasant visit, it's important to follow proper etiquette. Be patient in line, as bakeries can get busy, especially during peak hours. Take the time to appreciate the craftsmanship behind each item, and if you have questions about the products, don't hesitate to ask the bakers or staff.
Supporting local businesses is vital for the survival and growth of bakeries. Show your support by purchasing something during each visit, even if it's just a small treat. Your contribution goes a long way in supporting the hard work and passion that goes into creating these delectable delights.
VI. Exploring Bakery Culture Around the World:
Bakeries are not limited to one culture; they are a global phenomenon. Embark on an international tour through renowned bakery cultures and discover unique treats from different countries. French patisseries are known for their delicate pastries, from flaky croissants to elegant macarons. Italian bakeries offer mouthwatering cannoli and tiramisu. In Japan, you can find fluffy and light Japanese cheesecakes, while in India, bakeries serve up aromatic cardamom-spiced cookies and sweet treats like gulab jamun.
Each country has its own baking traditions and cultural significance. Exploring these global bakery experiences in your own city allows you to expand your culinary horizons and appreciate the diversity of flavors and techniques.
VII. Home Baking Tips and Recipes:
For those who want to try their hand at baking, there's no better place to start than in your own kitchen. Home baking brings a sense of joy and satisfaction as you watch ingredients transform into delicious treats. To get started, gather essential tools like measuring cups, mixing bowls, a whisk, and baking pans.
For beginners, simple recipes like chocolate chip cookies or banana bread are a great way to dip your toes into the world of baking. These recipes are easy to follow and yield impressive results. As you gain confidence, you can start experimenting with flavors and techniques, exploring the limitless possibilities of baking.
Conclusion:
The world of bakeries is a delightful one, filled with delicious treats, rich history, and cultural significance. We have explored the art and science behind baking, the different types of bakeries, must-try bakery items, and even tips for navigating dietary restrictions. Remember to embrace the bakery experience with curiosity and enthusiasm, supporting local businesses along the way. Whether you choose to explore the patisseries or bake your favorite cookies at home, the joy of bakery treats is a universal language. Thank you for joining us on this wonderful journey, and we look forward to hearing your feedback or personal bakery Melbourne stories. Happy baking!

Recipe: Tropezienne - A Taste of Saint-Tropez's Sweet Delight
If you've ever dreamed of savoring the flavors of the French Riviera, the Tropezienne is your ticket to a taste of Saint-Tropez's sweet paradise. This delectable pastry, shrouded in history and allure, combines the lightness of brioche with a rich cream filling, creating a delightful symphony of flavors that will transport you to the sun-kissed shores of Saint-Tropez. Let's embark on a culinary journey and bring the essence of this iconic French dessert into your kitchen with this authentic Tropezienne recipe.
Ingredients:
For the Brioche:
500g all-purpose flour
75g granulated sugar
10g active dry yeast
5 large eggs
125ml whole milk, lukewarm
200g unsalted butter, softened
1 teaspoon orange blossom water
Pinch of salt
For the Cream Filling:
500ml whole milk
1 vanilla bean or 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
6 large egg yolks
100g granulated sugar
50g cornstarch
250ml heavy cream, chilled
Optional Garnish:
Powdered sugar
Instructions:
Brioche:
In a mixing bowl, combine the lukewarm milk and active dry yeast. Let it sit for a few minutes until the yeast is activated and becomes frothy.
Add the flour, sugar, eggs, orange blossom water, and a pinch of salt to the yeast mixture. Mix everything until a dough forms.
Gradually incorporate the softened butter into the dough while continuing to knead. Knead until the dough becomes smooth and elastic, and pulls away from the sides of the bowl.
Cover the bowl with a damp kitchen towel and let the dough rise in a warm, draft-free place for about 1.5 to 2 hours, or until it doubles in size.
Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F).
Punch down the dough to release excess air. Divide it into two equal portions, and shape each portion into a round disc of about 20cm (8 inches) in diameter.
Place the discs on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, and let them rise for another 30 minutes.
Bake the brioche discs in the preheated oven for about 20-25 minutes, or until they turn golden brown. Let them cool completely on a wire rack.
Cream Filling:
In a saucepan, heat the whole milk and the scraped seeds of the vanilla bean (or vanilla extract) over medium heat until it reaches a gentle simmer.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks, granulated sugar, and cornstarch until well combined.
Gradually pour the hot milk into the egg yolk mixture, whisking continuously to prevent curdling.
Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and cook over low heat, stirring constantly until it thickens and reaches a custard-like consistency.
Remove the custard from the heat and let it cool to room temperature, covering the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin from forming.
In a separate bowl, whip the chilled heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the cooled custard to create the Tropezienne's creamy filling.
Assembly:
Slice each cooled brioche disc horizontally to create a top and a bottom layer.
Spread a generous amount of the cream filling onto the bottom layer of each brioche disc.
Sandwich the brioche layers together, gently pressing them to secure the filling.
Optional Garnish: Dust the top of the Tropezienne with powdered sugar for an elegant finishing touch.
Serve & Enjoy: The Tropezienne is best enjoyed fresh. Serve it with a cup of coffee or tea, and savor the heavenly combination of the delicate brioche and the indulgent cream filling. Bon appétit!
Whether you're reminiscing about your travels to Saint-Tropez or discovering the charm of this French delicacy for the first time, the Tropezienne is sure to delight your taste buds and transport you to the sunny shores of the French Riviera. So, embrace the culinary magic and treat yourself to a taste of Saint-Tropez with this delightful Tropezienne recipe.

Bread Pudding
Tumblr media
When Jules and I were little, our Mum would often take us to the bakery after school, where we’d buy cakes or coissants for our goûter, the French pendant for afternoon tea. There would often be Religieuses or Chocolate Eclairs, Croissants and Brioche. But also, whenever my sister opted for a generous slice of flan pâtissier, I would have one of (bread) pudding (for I never was too keen on crème pat!) I loved the concoction of milk-soaked bread, with vanilla, sometimes swirled in with a little chocolate, much, much better! I have made a few bread and butter puddings, the English cousin to this childhood treat, which is sliced and served like a cake, but never the treat itself. Until I found my Mum’s recipe (actually, her friend Marylin’s nan’s), handwritten in her much-used recipe book, and we so happened to have (as we often do), heaps of bread to use up. This delicious Bread Pudding, with its crisp top, and its soft, delicately sweet middle, is a delight, really as scrumptious as I remembered it! And you can have it at tea or for dessert. Happy Thursday!
Ingredients (serves 4 to 6):
1/4 cup sultanas
1/4 cup good quality white rum (like Guadeloupe’s Damoiseau)
2 cups semi-skimmed milk
1 plump vanilla bean
170 grams/6 ounces stale Sourdough Bread and/or Baguette
1/3 cup caster sugar
3 eggs
1/2 tablespoon unsalted butter
Spoon sultanas into a small bowl. Cover with white rum, and allow to soak, several hours (at least a couple.)
Pour milk in a medium saucepan.
Halve vanilla bean and scrape its seeds off. Add vanilla seeds and empty pod to the milk, and heat over a low flame.
Tear Bread and Baguette into large chunks into a large bowl. Sprinkle generously with caster sugar. 
Once the milk is just simmering, pour over the Bread and Baguette chunks, discarding empty pod. Give a good stir with a wooden spoon, to combine. Cover with a tea towel and allow to rest, 15 to 20 minutes.
Preheat oven to 180°C/355°F. Generously butter a pie plate.
Once the Bread and Baguette have soaked up most of the milk, and the mixture has cooled, break in the eggs, and mix well. Stir in reserved sultanas and their rum.
Gently spoon mixture into prepared pie plate, levelling with the back of the wooden spoon. Scatter small chunks of butter liberally on top. Place in the middle of the warm oven, and bake, at 180°C/355°F, 1 hour and a quarter to 1 hour and a half, until nicely golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let cool slightly.
Serve Bread Pudding warm or cooled.

La Lune
Tumblr media
Smut 18+
Synopsis: You and Jake take a vacation in the French countryside. You spend the day at a vineyard then come back to your rented cottage overlooking the Rhône River. You both decide to let the wine do the talking.
Word count: 1300
Warnings: Drinking, oral(f/rec), public/unprotected deeds, sickeningly sweet sentiments from Sir Jacob
“That was incredible!” You gush to Jake as you kick off your heels and plop down on the plush sofa. “Wine tasting in France can now be checked off the bucket list.” He chuckles at your statement.
“Whatever my girl wants, my girl gets.” He gives you a toothy grin. He goes into the kitchen to pull two wine glasses out of the cabinet and one of the bottles you had brought back from the vineyard. He makes his way to the glass paneled doors leading out to the veranda.
“Will you join me out here, my love?” He calls to you.
You stand up and make your way outside. The cobblestone that’s been heated by the summer sun warms your feet. You stand at the edge of the balcony. The sunset illuminates the ridges of the mountains and flickers in the ripples of the water down below.
“Do you like what you see?” Jake hands you the glass and you look over his face. It could just be the wine but you’re seeing him so intensely. He is the most beautiful being you’ve ever seen. The sun hitting his eyes, turning them from the usual hazelnut brown into a warm honey. His face, so soft and browned from the European sun. His hair rustling in the warm breeze. His lips full and glistening from his tongue tracing over them. He takes a sip of the wine.
“I’ve never seen anything this breathtaking before in my life.” Your eyes lock with his and he lifts his hand to frame your face with his fingers. His thumb rests on your bottom lip, pulling down slightly.
“I haven’t either.” He takes another sip from his glass. “This wine is delectable but I believe it would pair much better with dessert.” He places his hands on your hips and guides you backwards until you’re leaning against the parapet. He slides his hands up your dress to slip his fingers into the waistband of your panties and pulls them off of you.
“Jake, what are you-” He lifts your dress and leans in to kiss up the inside of your thigh while simultaneously running his hands up the length of your legs until his hands find a home, resting on your hips.
Your breathing intensifies as he trails his lips closer and closer to your dripping core. His touch sends chills up your spine and goosebumps begin to form on your skin. When a kiss lands on your clit, you sigh out from the pleasure. He flicks his tongue delicately across the surface and moves his hands from your hips down to cup your ass as he flattens his tongue and licks languidly along your folds. You reach down and lace your fingers into his hair, gently bucking forward into his face.
“Oh my god, Jakey.” You look down at him and he meets your gaze. His previously honey brown eyes, now dark with lust.
“Cum for me, Princess. I want to taste you. I NEED to taste you. All of you. Can you do that for Daddy, Sweet Girl?” You nod rapidly. He quickens his pace, lapping at you hungrily. Like you are the last thing he will ever put in his mouth. Your back arches and you try to pull him closer to you, as if that was possible. Fire burning in between your legs, you’re certain your heart stops for a few seconds as your orgasm crashes down on his tongue, effectively extinguishing the flame. He slows his tongue allowing you to come down from your high. He gives your thighs a final kiss before standing and returning the favor to your lips.
“Turn around for me baby”
You do as he says then he places his hands on your waist and he steps into you. He pulls your hair back to expose your shoulder before leaning his head down and blessing it with a soft, warm kiss.
He speaks softly into your neck, “I would never take another sip of wine, so long as it meant I am able to taste you like this everyday for the rest of my life.”
His words went straight to your core then down your legs into your toes. He places his hand around the crook of your knee to lift your leg onto the ledge then lifts your dress up over your ass. Behind you, you hear the clink of his belt buckle as he slides it through the loops of his pants. He pulls out his cock and places it on one of your cheeks as he slides his pants and underwear down some. He is already throbbing and you feel hot sticky precum drip onto your ass.
He grabs himself and lines up with your entrance, but not before sliding through your folds a few times. Effectively mixing your combined slick all over your pussy. Keeping one hand on your hip, he pushes into you slowly and your eyes roll back into your head as he bottoms out. He starts with slow and deep thrusts, making sure to hit your g spot with every stroke. The pure bliss is so overwhelming, you’re completely cock drunk as he fucks into you.
“You feel like heaven, baby. So tight and wet. This pussy was made to be wrapped around me.” He pants as he rhythmically slides in and out of you. He reaches around you to run quick circles over your clit as he’s reaching all of the right places inside you. Soft moans escape your lips as your second release of the evening creeps up on you.
He feels you start to tighten around him, “Give it to me, Sweet Girl.” His pace speeds up and his thrusts deeper than before. Soon the beautiful landscape before you begins to fade in and out as your climax radiates through you, your pussy spasming around Jake’s cock. He’s not far behind you, his strokes becoming erratic before his hips begin to stutter and you feel his cock pulse deep within you, painting your walls with his release. “Oh- oh my god, fuck, Y/N.” He moans out as he slowly pushes into you one last time. He slides out of you and immediately you feel his cum dripping out of you like warm honey onto your thighs.
He pulls his pants up but leaves them unbuttoned as he takes your hand to walk you back into the cottage. You both go to the bathroom and he sits on the edge of the tub as he fills it with hot water and your favorite bath salts. Once the bath is ready, he pulls your dress up over your head and holds onto your hand as you step into the steaming water.
“I’ll be right back.” He says as he exits the bathroom. You begin to clean yourself up and he comes back with warm towels fresh from the dryer and, of course, more wine. This time it’s a bottle of champagne. There are strawberry slices placed on the rim of the flutes. He sets them on the edge of the bath. He pours the champagne and removes a strawberry to bring it to your lips. You open your mouth to accept it and he places it on your tongue letting his finger linger for just a moment. You wrap your lips around it then pull back creating a soft ‘pop.’
“You’re too good to me.” You say to him with a smile as you bring the glass to your lips.
He looks at you with a soft expression and runs his fingers through your hair, using his thumb to gently stroke your temple.
“That’s impossible, my love. There’s nothing in this world I wouldn’t do for you. You deserve the moon.”
