Carrot & Raisins Cakes

Bride & Groom

This is the 2nd time I attended Mamamin Class, I do really learn a lot from her.
I can say that both classes are well worth to attended. It does improved my skill tremendously.

Wonder why my bride are without veil? That's because I was rushing to finished up the deco,
as I spend too much time to figure out where to put the sanggul (bun). Ended up, I just
create a pillbox hat without the veil. Surprisingly, it matches the bride's hairstyle.
Another thing that I still need to practice is the eyebrow, I want a nice curvy thin line for the
bride.


The Groom's hand are supposed to be holding the Bride's waist, but after the gumpaste settled.
It has goes down to the Bride's butt!!

and now I have a hamsap Groom... LOL

Barney & Friends

This cake is for Zhi Ting's 2yrs old birthday.

Simple Fondant Decorated Cake

As you all know, I always bought white rolled fondant to do my modelling. So few weeks ago,
when i was replanishing my stock i saw this pack of chocolate fondant. This is great coz
i can use it to do bear or whatever modelling piece that need brown color.
However, when I try to use it i still prefer the use the white fondant to mix with colour gel
to get the colour tone I want. This is chocolate fondant is too dark and it's very hard for me
to blend in with icing sugar not to mention cornflour. But the taste is great especially the chocolate
lover. Since I have already open it so I just use it to wrap a 9" square cake.
With a very simple deco.

Teddy Bear Returns

Coffee Chiffon Cake

When I was a kid, I still remember there is a group of my mom's friends came over to our house to teach mom how to bake chiffon cake using Stainless Steel Pot. The most I remember is when the mention that the egg whites have to be whisked until stiff and where you can invert it and it wont fall. That is how I got the understanding of making chiffon cake.

Since I bought my oven this is my first time baking chiffon cake, the result is good or at least better than what I expected. The texture of the cake is so soft and it taste nice, just that it's a bit moist. I will reduced 1 tbsp water from the recipe the next time I bake it.

Raisins Cupcakes

I want to clear all the raisins that have been sitting inside the fridge since CNY.
So today I bake 2 batches of raisins cupcakes. Got this recipe from simone's blog.
However I did some modification on it.

I used 100gm butter + 100gm margarines this is to suit my mom taste
actually she insisting me to use all margarine as she cant take the buttery taste however
i'm a bit hesitate :P so i just use substitute half of it.

Another thing is that I didnt soak the raisins with rum or grand marnier I use brandy instead.
Which I still have half bottle left after my wedding :P

The cupcakes turn up so well and delicious! I'm so happy, cant wait for my DH come back
to taste it :P

Try not to over beat the butter and sugar. Else, the raisins will sink.

My First Fondant Cake

Today I attended Basic Fondant Class. It's not easy to handle the fondant :(
towards half day of the class I got tired with it :P

Orange Cream Cheese Cupcakes

Suppose this should be Lemon Cream Cheese Cupcakes but I dont have lemon at home so I just replace it with orange. The taste is just as good and the texture is soft and fine.
I didn't do the glazing as it taste very nice already and a bit sweet. I think it's a bit sweet because
if you used lemon it will be just nice, however as I used orange juice and my oranges taste sweet,
If you dont really like sweet you may want to reduce the sugar. You may get the recipe here.

Moist Carrot Cake

Actually today I'm in the mood to try baking chiffon cake but too bad that
I bought the mold and I forgot left out few ingredient. Months ago my coll. brought some
carrot cake she bake and it taste good. She mention that she got the recipe from
kuali.com search for the recipe and my god there is plenty of carrot cake recipes.
I dont have blackcurrants and nuts so i just substitute it with mix fruits. I should have
put a teaspoon of brandy as I use mix fruits sigh... Anyway the cake is too moist,
lack of carrot taste and overwhelming with tangerine taste which from the mix fruits.
I bet after this my mom will banned me from baking any more cakes :P

Kaya Sugar Roll

Chrysanthemum Tea Loaf

Each time my visit to my in laws, my mom in law always give me a packet of dried
chrysanthemum flower. I have packets of it sitting in the fridge. So when I came across this
