November is coming for real fun..

As salam all, November is coming and that's when school ends..and of course start of school holiday and of course there will be many-many party/celebration in places..and here I am offering a gift for the loved ones..

A mini-gift for teachers/colleagues/friends/sisters.. Preparing gift for my son's teacher was always a head-ache..I dont know what to give, the teachers are more fashionable than I am.. Hence the only SAFE gift i would give are cookies/brownies nicely wrapped in boxes..they really look exclusive!! And most important; First, of course the teacher will love it as it taste good hehehe..and second i would always trust my son bringing these indelicate item to school without any accident ..

Price :: RM 15 per set [inclusive of 4 brownies of of your choice, box & ribbons]

Note: Appreciate on minimum order of 4 boxes per order.

At last chocolate ended the week..

Alhamdulillah..my week ended with chocolatey delights (at least)..it had been weeks as the RV hold it's stake. There were times where i couldnt stand the smell of of the vinegar..hahaha.. last nite the aroma of chocolatey were simply blissful..

Here we go, Oreo Brownie squares. TQVVVM Niza. Hope you like it ya..

Next, were request for 2 Devil's Food Cake..moist choc cake layer with thin cream cheese while coated with chocolate ganache. This time around i made the choc ganache more silkier.. Chip & Ita, tq or the trust and do enjoy the cake!!

No orders for tomorrow, looking forward for a good nite sleep tonite..cheers!! I'll share the recipe later ya..

Red Velvet Cake for Engagement

Phewww..this is what had been messing my head for almost a week..cream cheese vs fondant..they just doesnt match..cream cheese with high in moisture, while fondant must be kept dry at all time..it's like magnet with opposing poles.. but what the heck, a request must be granted..TQ Kak Lyn & Kak Yani for the advises..an amateur baker like me sure needs more-more practice..

TQVM Eija, I do hope both cakes safely arrive Termerloh safe and sound in their boxes. Let me know how it turned out..

Just 10 minutes before Eija arrive to pick up both her cakes, I just realized that a point at the back of the cake were 'bubbling' like..as i poked the soft middle cheese oozed out..uwaaaaa..and i just did what needed to be done! Hope no body recognize that bad part of the cake! No more Red Velvet with fondant..to be safe, had to use butter cream instead!

Have a pleasant weekend all!!!

Chocolate Pavlova with Strawbery and Tangerine

As salam all..what a week without RV..here a mini-RV requested by my SIL for her office mate. I ought to remember the recepi by heart now. Alhamdulillah.

Here too, requested by my SIL together along with the RV..Chocolate pavlova with creamy cream, spread with shredded chocolate and strawberry and tangerine..(that's all i have in-house)

This is eventually my 2nd attempt making the most ever famous dessert..pavlova..in memorization of Anna Pavlova.. technically, pavlova should be crisp on the outer while mashmallowy on the inside.. i like mine differently..very crispy meringue like..and smooth silky like on the inside.. I have tried pavlove from Joy of Baking but Nigella's a winner.. The recipe is simple..here it goes RECIPE HERE!

And it should be double layer..but my son loved it as is..omit the cream and the rest..

At this very right moment, I am actually waiting for another 2 RV cakes in the oven..hmmm the aroma..shall update the pics ya!

a RED week again..

Alhamdulillah..last weekend was another 2 RV cake..here is the pic of one, where the other i missed to capture..phewww.. my hands are all tide.. Last week was a glad and happy week..

Glad as I am looking forward for another bzzz weekend (this week) and happy because ALL BLACKS won the Rugby World Cup last Sunday!!! Hahaha, there are soft part of me and shhhhh..and there are rough part of me (influence from my hubby!).. woot..woot..it was a close game, I cant even sit still for the last 15 minutes..

Here..RV request by Wirda..TQVM dear, hope you had a good 'lepak' with your friend with this RV cake :)

I had plans to share more recipe and to even try new 'product'..but forgive me, time are just not on my side..

Have a good and safe week peeps :)

And again..another Red Velvet-y weekend..

As always, alhamdulillah for the order and the trust..I will appreciate all of you.. It is really not easy to sacrifice my nite time for all the baking works. Call me crazy, well that is the only slot I'd have to be 'alone'. And actually those are the times where I am the best of me.. I shall do this as long as I could.


Here we go..Moist red velvet..TQVM Azri..you came all the way to fetch the cake..and when it was time, Azri simply pull the bag with the cake box in 45 degree position..whoott..muka i dah merah..luckily the cake was unharmed..guys pheww..Again TQ!

Here a  request from Kak Aida..just for 'makan-makan', without any topping..I simply sprinkle some pink sugar rice, for a little 'seri'.. I had another 5 pc a home where I dabbed some choc ganache..yumm..taste much better..

 Again from Kak Aida, RV cake..for her dotter's 11th bday.. hope they had a great time ya..

And all the above was made on Friday nite..not too long..I started around 8 pm and ended almost 2 am.. but worth it..
