Guest Blogger CNY baking workshop (1) with Baker's Brew Studio on 31 January 2016




Last evening, I conducted my first guest blogger workshop with Baker's Brew Studio and the participants had a great hands-on session baking the Melt-In-The-Mouth Pineapple Tart in fun shapes - Monkey, Piggy, Rose and Pineapple. Actually we did more than these designs as there were request for dog, porcupine, cat etc. Wow! I was being 'challenged' to come up with something that I have not tried before! On the spot, I came up with the impromptu designs, glad I passed the 'test'...LOL!!!


This is one my impromptu design


Happy to know that everyone had fun and enjoyed the class. Here's sharing some photos taken during the workshop.

Super Moist Low-Fat Butter Cake 超湿润低脂奶油蛋糕 (中英加图对照食谱)




I used to think Mrs NgSK's butter cake is the best and nicest butter cake I have ever made until I tried this butter cake recipe which uses about half the amount of butter and yet so moist, fragrant and light!

这奶油蛋糕食谱用的奶油比平时做的少了一半,吃起来不会油腻,又香又湿润。一个八寸大蛋糕才用125克奶油呢!

Healthy Wholemeal Cranberry Almond Cookies 健康全麦蔓越梅杏仁酥 (中英加图对照食谱)




The Lunar/Chinese New Year (CNY) is less than a month away. Have you started making CNY goodies? Most traditional Lunar New Year goodies are packed with sugar and fat, with little nutritional value at all. Thus, I am determined to come up with a healthier cookie recipe this year. I have tweaked and modified greatly an almond cookies recipe found on 孟老师's cookie recipe book.

农历新年快到了,您开始做年饼与零食了吗?多数传统的年饼与零食热量和脂肪含量高,几乎没什么营养价值可言。所以,我就把在孟老师手工饼干食谱书上,看到的杏仁酥食谱,大大地改良成健康,营养丰富的全麦蔓越莓杏仁酥。

Chocolate Eclairs 耶克蕾亚泡芙 (中英加图对照食谱)



A happy and blessed 2016 New Year to all my readers!

Sharing my first bake of the year - my first attempt to bake Chocolate Eclairs. Eclair is a french word meaning lightning, rumor has it that it came about because a pastry chef would joke that this cake is so good that it is gobbled up as fast as lightning! It is a hollow, log-shaped shell of choux pastry that is filled with vanilla, chocolate, or coffee flavored pastry cream. The top of the pastry is usually dipped into a vanilla, chocolate, or coffee flavored glaze or fondant.

Highly recommended Bailey's Chocolate and Coffee Roll Cake 强推百利巧克力咖啡蛋糕卷 (中英加图对照食谱)



I'm back from a wonderful family winter vacations and having experienced freezing cold temperature at -9 degree Celsius as well as highly polluted air quality of PSI 500, am I glad to be home! My oven has rested well too for the past one month and it is all ready for moi to work it hard again...lol!

Here's sharing my new experiment and recipe of a roll cake which I have transformed into a Christmas log cake for my church Caregroup gathering last weekend. My friends who were my 'guinea pigs' gave thumbs up for it and they love the smooth, soft and bouncy cake texture. They told me that they have not tasted such nice roll cake texture before and they also love the chocolate and coffee cream fillings which is light and not too sweet. My hubby who hardly praises also commented that this is the best roll cake I have made so far!

As I was rushing to attend the gathering, I didn't have time to take out my DSLR camera to take some nice shots of the cake, only manage to snap one photo of the completed cake with my mobile phone.

I highly recommend you to give this cake a try and here's wishing everyone a Blessed and Joyous Christmas!

分享出国游玩回来的第一个作品,也是我做过最好吃的蛋糕卷,质感柔软又有弹性。把它装饰为木材蛋糕,拿去参加聚会,朋友们吃了都赞不绝口!强力推荐给大家!在此也祝大家有个愉快的圣诞!
