Vintage Flower Box Wedding Cake

'I cried once this cake was finished', was my FB status on Wednesday. Here, let me allow the following picture do the talking. No, you dont need a tissue like what happened to me..I was being over-sensitive that day.

It was a huge experience. Something I've always wanted to do, something I craved for. Very intricate artistic work with a lot of creativity involved. Patient & passion. Pride. TQVM Anissa & Anita from Confetti Studio for sharing their expert knowledge in cake decoration to someone so little like me.




Interested? Do email me ;)

Alhamdulillah, below are all the bakes collected/delivered today. TQ lovely people!!


Have a great weekend to all! Take care..

Marie Cheese Layer Cake

I am not sure to call this a cake or not..and of course it looks like a cake but since no baking was required the name cake was rather inaccurate for this supper delicious and decadent dessert. Let make things easy and follow what everyone have called it..the Marie Cheese Layer Cake ;)

This is the 3rd batch I made within few weeks of time. I made it first here, and this is 3rd tray and specially requested by my son and was clearly mentioned to me not to give away any of them to any one.

I know many other bakers have posted this cake long time ago. Yet it was my mom who made me want to try this out. Mom visited her friend in Sarawak and was served with this cake. Mom called me immediately and said.."there's a 'new' sedap cake, go bake them".. What ever tasted good to Mom, would always be good to me too..and indeed it was true. Light, cheesy and the lemony taste gave an additional kick to the cake. I loved it cool ;)

Thanked to Peek Freans who created this super-useful biscuit in 1874, where many recipe had been using this biscuit in baking and cooking. And of course I am one of the many fans of this Marie biscuit. Here is the recipe for this Marie Cheese Layer Cake, thank you for sharing kak Yani.


Ingredients:
1 packet of Marie biscuit
1 packet of coffee Marie biscuit (trust me, tasted so good)
250 gram philly cream cheese
300 ml anchor whipping cream
250 ml evaporated milk
1 tbsp lemon juice
125gm shredded philly cheddar cheese

Method:
Lined an 8 inch square baking pan with baking paper.
Ensure cream cheese at room temperature.
Whipped cream cheese until smooth.
Add in milk and stir.
Add in lemon juice and stir.
Add in 300 ml cream and beat till creamy and fluffy.
Arrange biscuit/cheese mixture/biscuit until all were used.
Shred cheddar cheese on top.
Cover with a cling wrap and chill over night.

Enjoy!


And these were some bakes made last week, where all photos have been uploaded in the FB page..thank you all!!


Have a good week!

What a week that was..

I thought I wouldn't survive last week but Alhamdulillah that I did. If not, I wouldn't be writing this very post today ;)

I've always hate my self for being so hard to disappoint others. As a result, I have been baking till almost 4am for the entire last week. Yet, how sleepless you are, once you see those smiling faces receiving their cakes and bakes, I'd be so happy and eventually more energetic to bake more! When 'that' thing involves love and passion, nothing was impossible.

With all the bakes, yet I still manage to squeezed in to some open houses, weddings, meeting 'old' time friend. It was such precious time spent because you'll be talking endlessly to recall old good memories..something that could never be erased. Love you all my friends and we should catch up more often girls!

Half of bakes for the week. Some were with no photo taken :(


For next week I'll be away from home and only be taking few orders only. I am sorry to those I've declined to.

Take care all and again thank you for the continuous support & trust on my cakes and bakes ;)

Happy Merdeka!

Merdeka! Merdeka! Merdeka! I could hear fire works explodes through the night as I baked all the goodies for all the lovely people I met.

Open house invitations as well as open house order flooded my inbox/sms/watsup. Only 2 orders were refused but the rest were accepted with open heart. However, I had to declined almost all open houses this week as hubby is again away for work, except to 2 of my neighbour's invatations.

I've had enough rest during Ramadan and here all orders made for the Merdeka weekend. Love the adrenaline rush ;)

A total of 150pcs moist chocolate & buttermilk vanilla cupcakes.

Thank you all lovely ladies ;) And thank you ALOT to my sis & SIL for keeping me company at night. Love u both!

I baked the yogurt cake again on Wednesday for the kids as they loved it so much..One huge slice gone in minutes. This time around, I omitted the strawberry, instead slapped the cake with my super-licious chocolate ganache. Since I was fully occupied with orders, instead of making cupcakes for his class as planned, only 3 choc-candies + RM1 were place in cupcakes casing for Aizam's Merdeka & Raya celebration at school on Thursday..


Have a great Sunday tomorrow, as I know mine will be because my other half will be home ;)
