Cupcakes






I just do not make cupcakes as good as any other cupcake makers
I mean i can bake them, and have baked for my friends on several occassions, but as for the deco i can tell you i really suck at it.
This is because i dont have the patience to decorate something so miniscule.

Imagine this, i have a 1 year old daughter who constantly demands for my attention. Imagine me decorating and then hear my daughter scream because her father pick on her. Mental stress

I tried decorate them when she is sleeping, but babies are like sharks. Once they cannot smell you, they will hunt you down, literally. Hahaha

But i can try to upgrade my cupcake decorating skills. However at the moment i just wont promote something that i am not good at.

It will be so wrong. Same goes if you can decorate a cupcake beautifully but it tastes like feet. That will be wrong, wrong and wrong.....!!

I can win on the taste, but i rate myself on a scale of 5 out of 10 for decorations. However first impression do matter. However if you dont mind on the decorations, feel free to contact me :)

Furthermore i personally think all those cupcake making hype is a one off phase/trend. It will be better if i try to master more than 1 kind of treat, but i do promise that, i will upgrade my cake decorating skills.

Wedding Anniversary Cake




Choc Fudge Cake with Choc Ganache...from MYR 35/kg

Made this cake for my hubby's colleague at work for his wedding anniversary. He wanted the cake to be shaped like a heart and weigh around 2kg.
When i was making the cake, i thought to myself, what a romantic husband. I never made a heart shaped cake before but i just give it a try.
It came out perfect, and i top it off with some fresh chocolate ganache with strawberries and chocolate shavings. Pure chocoholic delight! And he was smiling ear to ear when he came to my house to collect the cake. I was too. Nothing makes me feel happier seeing others happy.

Gosh that reminds me, i need to give names for all my cakes...How about Choco Loco? I think it has been taken...hmm...hahaha
