Welcome to Ugne Bakes, your portal to my world of modern, experimental baking!

My fitness lifestyle has certainly influenced the way I approach myBaking! I’m forever pushing the boundaries, defying rules, in order to create healthier bakes and these are the kind of ‘treats’ you can eat on a more regular basis without feeling guilty, greasy or bloated – one can say it is the ultimate indulgence without the usual extreme feeling of guilt!

I will therefore have a page published which is almost exclusively dedicated to the low-fat (”skinny”) recipes, with a growing number of ‘clean’ eating, vegan, and gluten-free options. I am passionate about the fact that I believe that in the modern world we live in, we can make healthier choices that taste just as delicious as their ‘full-fat’, sugar-loaded indulgent counterparts. I aim to show the world that we can indulge and still look good and feel even better just by the way we make healthier choices when we think about baking as we know it.

From My heart- to Your tummy…

And the gloves are off

    I love your ideas Ugne. I much prefer cakes and bakes which are lower in fat and sugar with just a touch of sweetness from honey, maple or other syrups or dried fruit.

    Ugne, you had the best and most interesting ideas this year, and were definitely the most creative on the show. Will you be posting the recipes for your bakes from the show? I especially loved your Lithuanian honey cake jar and cinnamon cookie showstopper. Looked absolutely beautiful and sounded so delicious.

      Thank you Daniel 🙂 peoples support and follow means a lot.

      I will indeed keep baking and continuing the bake off journey even though I’m am not in the Tent. I’m doing bake along every week, and plus adding new recipes all the time. Please keep coming back to see my news and updates.

      Thank you

    Great ideas and experiments here and on the GBBO – it was great to see a new approach to baking on national TV 😉 I am a keen believer in healthier, tastier baking and the recipes on my website do exactly that too!

    Looking forward to more bakes from you….!

    Dear Ugne,
    I am from Dallas Texas and we are watching
    season 3 of the Great British Baking Show
    And my 6 year old little sister is your biggest
    fan and when she saw you leave she started
    Crying and by the way I myself think you’re
    Bakes look amazing and delicious. 🙂
