Tomato, Cheese and Herb Cakelets

I have made a savoury chiffon years ago in the form of tomato chiffon cake "tomatoes". You can read about it in this blog post. I decided to revisit it again but adding another savoury element between layers of the savoury chiffon sponge this time round in the form of tomato aspic (tomato gelatin)!I have to admit that you need to be mentally prepared that you are eating a savoury cake because if you are expecting something sweet, this may come as a shock 🤣. Think of this as a savoury...

Lychee Raspberry Rose Snowskin Mooncake

 I didn't plan to make mooncakes this year because I am really swamped by too many things. But a friend had leftover ingredients from making lychee snowskin mooncakes so she passed it to me. The reduced sugar lychee lotus paste, snowskin flour premix and cooked glutinous rice flour (kou fien) are all bought from Redman. She also passed me a set of mooncake moulds and I used it to make these 😊.Lychee raspberry rose snowskin mooncakes with a little chopped walnuts, almonds, dried cranberries...

Lychee Raspberry Strawberry Rose Chiffon Cake with Diplomat Cream and Lychee Jelly

I was wondering what flavour of cake to make for my dad's and uncle's birthdays that is flavourful yet refreshing and not too sweet. My dad said he would like to try a new flavour from me since I made earl grey, pandan kaya cakes and chocolate cakes in the past. I thought why not try the lychee mixed berry rose combination and I came up with these cakes! Lychee rose chiffon sponge with lychee rose diplomat cream and chopped lychees between sponge layers. There was supposed to be the...

Sumikko Gurashi Burger and Fries Chiffon Cake (Mc-Sumikko Value Meal)

My Mc-Sumikko Value Meal! 😆🥰Both the burger and fries are made entirely from chiffon cake! Apparently Sumikko gurashi has a cute burger character like this! I fell in love with it and had to make it! =p I made up the fries character though, as the burger character looked kind of sad and lonely haha. So I made a fries companion for the burger. I actually made this cake during the circuit breaker when we had no Macdonalds. It sort of cheered us up =).Recipe for smaller versions of these...

Hello Kitty and Donutella in Hot-Air Balloon Macarons

Sometimes you don't know something can be done until you try it. This is one of those experimental bakes that turned out really well and I thank God for it 😊. Presenting my version of Hello Kitty with Donutella on a hot-air balloon trip over the rainbow, all made using macarons! Ok the marshmellow clouds and the balloon ropes aren't made of macarons 😂. Two things I experimented with using macaron batter 1) as a glue for macaron structures, and 2) creating a pastel striped pattern...

Giant Boba Brown Sugar Milk Tea Chiffon Cake

My imagination of what a cute Giant bubble tea would look like in chiffon cake!💓 This time, in addition to baking the "pearls" in, I tried to make brown sugar swirls at the bottom and a slight two-tone (like in the bubble tea when the layers separate) as well! The two-tone didn't come up as obvious as I had hoped, but maybe it was cuter that way. Anyway the brown sugar fragrance was really lovely and cake was delicious! I have shared the recipe previously. If you always...

Princess Crown and Shoes Raspberry and Earl Grey Macarons

I had a request for princess themed macarons. Since the stereotypical princess wears fancy shoes and tiaras, I made these macarons 😊 Looks a little like a shop selling princessy paraphernalia 🤣 I had to decide whether to go for easier time before baking or post-baking. I chose the latter to avoid using royal icing (which is added sugar) on the baked shells. So this is what the piped batter looks like... Intricate details were done using macaron batter too The glass slipper  I...
