Life Changing

So the other day, one of my classmate got me a cheesecake. She said treat it as my very belated birthday gift. LOL. So anyway, she told me that this cheesecake is soooo good and famous. It's a blueberry cheesecake. She got it from R.T Pastry in subang. Surprisingly,i've been there before. So next time i could get me one by myself! Muahaha....

I was actually a bit concerned that she actually got me a cheesecake. Cause usually, i can't eat a LOTT of cheesecake. Don't get me wrong, i like it. It's just that once i eat two to three spoons, i'll be like feel a bit sick. Well you know what i mean. But it's different with this one. I can ate a whole slice without getting that feeling. It's very light and flavourful. It has a right balance of savoury and sweetness to it. All i know is that, that cheesecake, it was LIFE CHANGING! Oh yeaa...

So for those of you who know where it is, grab your cheesecake now~ I'm telling you, no bite is a bite of regret! Unless you're watching your figure! XD

Joy of Baking

So today, I'm gonna talk a bit about baking. You see. Baking does not all has to be theoretical, nor does it have to be mathematical. No, you can't put that cause it will effect to this. Add more of that, it would make your cake rise. Baking is a joy. A sweet delight that you feel when you enjoy doing something. Baking is not only done for special occasions. You could bake daily if you wish. There's nothing wrong with it. Make it a hobby and not a profession.

But of course there are several rules that you would have to understand. It takes skills and practice to get something right. You can't expect to one day wake up and just say "wow,i'm a pastry chef". In order to achieve an astounding result. You would need to use good quality ingredients. You can't make something a world's heritage by using something cheap and of low quality. No matter how you give Tender Loving Care (TLC) it would still result in what you use in it.

Baking is a tough and tricky thing to do. It may lead to a disaster. It may be costly. But in the end, it all was worth the effort. Just to see the smile of the faces after eating that piece of cake. All the burden would just disappear, just like that. So remember, make baking a joy, a delightful experience!

Heavenly Holidays

Hey guys! I know i haven't updated for quite a long while, so sorry about that! But now i have loads to talk about. I don't even know where to begin with. Hummm... let's see.... AH! i know what i'm gonna talk about. Well you see, last christmas, i got a new oven from my parents as a christmas present! I couldnt tell you how happy i was! So anyways, i experimented quite a lot of things when i was home. I made swiss rolls,macaroons, choux pastry, short crust, bread. I'm not sure what else, too much things going on my head. So anyway, the first thing i made was swiss roll. It was kinda a failure at the first try cause i havent got to familiarize myself with the oven, it turned out that the fire was too big and i should play around with it. Unhappy with the first result, i decided to make another one. But still it didn't turn out right, i wanted to do another but i thought if it won't turn out right again, it would be a waste of ingredients.

So the next day, oh~ i made banana bread. Yeah, that one turned out fantastic. It taste good but next time i should decrease the sugar and add in more bananas, then it'll be even better!



Then after that i took a step to dare myself to try and make macaroons! And you know what? It was actually successful! I myself was kinda amazed that it turned out right. I actually expected that it would fail. But it didn't! So yeah i am very pleased with the results and yeah, am satisfied!


Finally, i made some choux buns. My mom,dad and bro like this the most. They said it taste good and the taste is not as sweet. It's somehow balanced cause it has this salty-ness to it. Well yeah i know it's confusing unless you try it yourself. LOL. Actually in school we only fill it with chantily cream. But i decided to be daring. I filled it with chocolate ganache. And you know what? It actually tasted quite good. To be honest, i like it better with chocolate ganache rather than chantily cream. But again, different people different perspective right?


That's the end of this blog and i'll catch up with you guys with more stories later on! Chiao~
