Egg Tarts

My very first attempt at making egg tarts...

B4 entering oven...


Entering oven...


DONE!


Got the recipe from the September 2011 issue of Simply Her magazine.. Looks easy enough and I had all the ingredients so without further thoughts, i went ahead to bake it..

This will probably be the last time i bake egg tarts.. why? because...
- i never liked to make pastries 'cos it's v time-consuming,
- it's tiring,
- i dun like to play around with dough...
- i dun like egg tarts. Period.

The recipe said it will yield 25 tarts.. i took that qty with a pinch of salt because the flour required was more than 1kg in total.. and guess what? in the end, i think i got about 60 tarts!!! and yes, i dun like egg tarts.. i never buy them unless i really really got the mood for it which is super rare.. well anyway, i gave 16 away, ate 3, sis ate 1, dad ate 1, mum ate 1 or 2.. and i still have many more...

before i forget, the pastry was a little tough.. but the taste of the egg was good.. first time baking and i thought i did ok.. could hv been better if i could tell when the egg part was cooked..

i think i still prefer baking cakes.. haha..

Agar Agar Fever







I'm into making agar agar now!! Finally after many attempts, I managed to get the texture right.. and thanks to my aunt for teaching me how to make the layers :)

XY's Wedding Gate Crash Cupcakes

Ok.. so the idea is we have 5 Chinese words hidden in the cupcakes and the groom's supposed to construct a short passage with these 5 words.. cool idea..

the Wilton white cookie icing's out of stock!! so i had to buy something else.. and the only icing that was appealing to me was the Red and White Striped Icing.. the colours were not distinct (as you will see in my pictures below) but the taste is ok..

the flower design wasn't done that nicely cos i squeezed the icing from the tube and the tip was way too big for the tube.. oh well..

lucky got a packet of white rice crispies and i placed them in the middle of each pipped flower pattern..







the words are rolled and stuffed inside the cupcakes and these cups are labelled with a red rubber band :)
