Capybara Strawberry Ice-Cream Roll Cake

 I made a capybara strawberry ice-cream roll cake for my younger kid's birthday, in time for this sudden hot spell! It was really delicious and full of berry flavour! I filled the middle with a strawberry-pandan-matcha chiffon cake surprise instead of using whole fresh strawberries as this cake is consumed frozen.

Optimus Prime and Bumblebee Rose Tea Marshmallows

 My friend requested for some Bumblebee and Optimus Prime bakes. Since I have already made the macaron versions earlier this year, I thought why not challenge myself with the marshmallow version since I was concurrently working on another epic marshmallow project.I couldn't find references I like because marshmallow subjects need to be on the softer side compared with using cookie or macaron as the medium.
