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~
