At home at last..

Only today, we finally be at home and resting after days of visiting and eatings to both sides of the family. And, I still havent resume on any baking yet..rest till you can :)

Us, on the first day of Aidilfitri. It is so hard to really capture decent photos of the boys. They just cant stay still.

Below are some photos of bakes delivered on Saturday, a day before Eid. The rest of cakes (fruit, butter, orange, red velvet) were delivered without being captured..anyhow, thank you all!!! And again, Salam Aidilfitri!

My cookies ran out fast and so glad my family loved them and of course i'll be baking our own cookies for every Eid!. I have made another batch of the Almost Famous Amos cookies (tightly wrapped in the fridge), but havent have the time to bake them yet. 

Till then all..eat in moderation (telling my self too!) & be safe..

Ramadan al-baraqah..

I've always planned but, due to circumstances everything changes and did not go as planned. I planned, yet He the Most Merciful decided. Especially in this month of Ramadan, everything seems so easy and perfectly seamless. Subhanallah and syukur.

I purposely announced early that no bakes during Ramadan as I feel I'd like to focus on family..nonetheless..request keeps coming in..my baby sleeps early now adays..once done completed my prayers..I was 'nothing' much to. One order accepted then, followed by another. Believe me, baking is very contagious. Once you've started, you'd be so eagerly to have more.

Thank you to all..again thank you!

No bakes during Ramadhan..

How time flew so fast. The memories from last Ramadhan was still fresh in me, and here we are only a few days away from the holy month. Half of last year's Ramadhan was spent in the hospital due to my sick baby..and I hope this year will be a better & fulfilling month with all possible good deeds.

I just want to lay low for this month and focus on me & family only. Therefore. no new orders/bakes during Ramadhan. I'll be baking my own cookies and will indeed share the recipe and photos here.

Few bakes for today..

Rainbow cake with butter cream. Layers of BC colours were the same as cake colours. This is a 10 inch cake using 1.5 recipe.

Prune, Raisin and Cherry Fruit Cake

This simple and delicious fruit cake ended my bakes for this week. We and my in laws were having a picnic in Lata Jarum, Raub Pahang and the fruit cake was a long 'said' item from my dear FIL.

I didnt use the ready made mixed fruit package, instead made my own mixed fruit of my my favorite dried fruits only..hehehe..

250 g fruits {i used pitted prunes,black raisins & cherry}
1 orange, squeezed & zest
250 g butter {used SCS}

4 eggs
1 tsp vanilla
250 g superfine flour*
2 tsp baking powder*
1/2 tsp cinnamon*
1/2 tsp nutmeg*
Note* - mix all together


How to;

1. Placed mixed fruits and squeezed orange juice into a bowl and left set for 2 hours, longer is better.
2. Beat butter with brown sugar till soft.
3. Mix in vanilla & eggs.
4. Mix flour and fruit mixture alternately.
5. Bake in 8 inch pan for 1 hour @ 170 degree celcius or skewer came out clean.

My FIL said, "jangan lupa buat untuk raya" ..hehehe then I'd knew it tasted good!

The macarons were half gone before we even reach Raub. The coffee macs were delicious!! A true coffee taste for coffee lovers!  Nice meeting you kak! No pics, sorry, too busy munching to snap any..hehehe..and TQs for the delicious red velvet whoopie pie..nyumss!

Thank you all!!!! Cheers :)

Too hard to be true..

Delivering a cake was something I feared most. And, what I feared might happened ..had actually happened..leaving me so sad and frustrated. The similar cake was delivered to once to Putrajaya & Kajang, and Syukur it was perfect. But, a cake I delivered to a housing area just across my house..collapsed, leaving me speechless!

I was driving super-slow as it was heavily raining, where I hit a small bump. Instead of pressing the break paddle slowly, I hit it hard (shocked, as didint see the small bump)..and there a shout from my boy who sat with the cake at the back.. "Ma...stop, kek jatuh..". I emotion shattered..WORDLESS.

Lucky the top tier (chocolate moist) was still acceptable, and re-assembled for Aida. The ruin bottom tier was 6 layers rainbow cake. :(

Aida & Rizal..I SORRY for what happened! Again so SORRY to ruin, Darwisy's special day!

Cuppies with similar theme.

I leave the rest of the bakes here..let the picture speaks :)

End of school holiday, means ends of my luxury of relaxations. No more late morning wakes, no more 'tapau' food, no more iron-free day. Therefore, before I start on my ironing, I'd better update on the bakes for last week or else it will just be more delays.

Soft cotton durian cake. Made this for my parents, who love this cake so much. They sent me 10 packets of fresh peeled durian from our kampung. Where I only needed 150 gram of those king of fruit. Had another 8 packets of durians in the freezer for bubur during Ramadhan.!!

First and foremost, kindly note that all pictures were taken by my one and humble Nokia Lumia. Therefore you may need to zoom in or to ignore any un-sure images. The camera was in the room where my baby sleeps and I hate to pull out the squeaky drawer, knowing it'll wake him up. Therefore..please apology on the quality of images u'd about to scroll down to.
