White Chocolate Drizzle

Lovin' the colour contrast! Chocolate cake slices with white chocolate drizzle..

Juz to share, I learnt that you can't use normal melted chocolate for drizzling cos it doesn't harden (at least that is what has happened to me before).. basically, you gotta use dipping chocolate.. e.g. Tulip brand.. they have dipping chocolate in chocolate, strawberry chocolate and white chocolate.. these when mixed with a small amount of butter or shortening will harden much faster and easily..

Bakey Bake Weekend...

Started yesterday night baking the chocolate muffins...

This morning, went on to bake the orange chocolate chip muffins...

Then in the afternoon, started doing the frosting...

Work-In-Progress:


Finished!!! I think the red looks good with the yellow.. :)


And how can I forget the birthday boy.. Eegan!


Of course I don't expect him to eat it.. (he's only 1-year old) but couldn't help doing this for him.. hehe.. :)

Chocolate muffins with chocolate chips & "gao gao" nutella frosting!!

All these for my ex-colleagues whom I'll meet at the birthday celebration tomorrow :)

This is how I packed it:


But i thought the bottom-left muffin looked a bit plain.. since I have frosting left over, I decided to play around with it....

Just 3 of the several faces I made.. Hope they'll like it :)

Pandan Cake

mum suddenly had the mood to bake pandan cake.. 2 cakes to be exact!! i did the baking but she did the prep work like squeezing the pandan juice and coconut milk... she also helped mix the stuff together for 1 cake and i did the other.. obviously, chef mum's cake turned out poofy and yummy.. we haven't tried mine yet.. it's still in the tin.. but my cake didn't rise as high as hers.. it's quite a skill to master.. also, i can't remove the cake from the tin properly.. so mum helped with that.. haha..

this is my all-time favourite cake from my mum.. i never get tired of it :)

Mayer Cake Demo Class

Attended my first cake demo class organised by my company...

Pardon the photos quality, it's taken with my phone.. :)

Chef Tania in action:

Some of the stuff baked:

Peanut Butter Zebra Cake

Brownies

Cookies

Carrot Cake

Whole Cake:


Cut:


Slice:


Oil was used instead of butter.. I used about 6 carrots and surprisingly, there's no carrot taste!! There's a slight hint of cinnamon and the walnuts add a nice crunch to the texture..

Orange Flavoured Chocolate Chip Cupcakes

don't underestimate the power of baking powder and self-raising flour combined!!! one word... POOF!!
