Showstopper of the day, Christmas House Cake

Christmas has finally arrived!!! Merry Christmas all! I came out with a cute Christmas house cake. It's my own original idea. The house initially looked like a haunted house but the final outcome was simply amazing. I do not have the heart to cut the cake ^_^ It's a double layer red and green butter cake with strawberry center filling. Topped with customized 3D Christmas house design. House is made up of butter cake. Icing is sugar butter icing.

Christmas cookie 2 (Semperit Cookie topped with red Cherry)

Hello all ^_^ hope you are having a great weekend.
Again it's not cake and it's cookie that I baked!! This cute yellow pieces are called Semperit cookie. They have a custardy melt in the mouth texture :) This is actually a joint venture with my hubby. I mixed the doh, he patiently pressed out the dough using the Semperit Nozzle... and there comes these beautiful flowery cookies. I decorated them with the red cherry and baked. Once I took it out from the oven, you know what happens... :D I impatiently pop them into my mouth ;) (Just can't hold myself back from getting the first taste. Hehehe!) Thanks to my hubby for helping me! Cheers all and God bless you all.

Christmas cookie 1 (Nestum Cookie with Chocolate Drizzle)

It has been some time since I posted in my blog. Has been kinda busy preparing for Christmas ^_^ I know this post is not about cake, it's about cookies. Just to share with you that I can bake cookies too and not only cakes *_* I have to say that this is a delicious nestum cookie. It is crispy, and the blend of nestum taste in it is just fantastic. Adding on with the drizzle of milk compound chocolate, I just don't know what to say. I am trying my best to save this cookie from my hubby until Christmas. Wish me luck :D

Ritter Sport Chocolate - Strawberry Yoghurt

Hello all :) Is anyone out there a die hard fan of yoghurt as me? ^_^

This is a must try!!! It is a Ritter Sport chocolate with Strawberry Yoghurt flavor. This is my favourite chocolate and it is finger licking good. I can just sit in front the tv and indulge into this chocolate not realizing it's my last bite!! I got this in Langkawi for about RM3.90 (so damn cheap). I saw this again at the Bukit Kayu Hitam duty free shop but it cost double the price from Langkawi but still cheaper from normal shops. The problem is that the normal shops do not sell this flavor :( so sad. Cold Storage sells some Ritter Sports chocolate for rm9+ and they don't have my favourite flavor.. Anyway if you go to Langkawi don't forget to try this out yah! Cheers and have a nice weekend!

Soaking Mix Fruit

Christmas is just around the corner and guess what? I have started soaking my mix fruits for the Christmas fruit cake!!! The fruits are put in an air tight jar container as per the picture below and soaked in combination of Hennessy V.S.O.P and Martell V.S.O.P. If you don't know what are they, they are actually a good collection of brandy. (I stole them from my hubby's collection of liquors ^_^). Trust me you will just love the smell of Christmas when you open the jar. Yummm... what is Christmas without fruit cake after all right :-) I will post the picture of the outcome of the fruit cake after I bake it ya. Till then, cheers and have a great holiday season!

Purple Blue Butter pound cake With strawberry filling

 I made this cake for my HP (Hewlett Packard) team's birthday celebration. I thought of coming out with something special and new. (So lucky for them who cut this cake ^_^). This is fully hand made. It is made of 2 layer of butter pound cake. If you see the last picture, you can see the structure of the cake. Bottom later is a purple color butter cake and the top layer is a pink color butter cake. And the magic ingredient sticking that 2 layers is the strawberry filling in the middle layer. Trust me this cake was so moist and just perfect by itself. And to bring this layers together I have complimented it with a sugar butter icing frosting. Just love the combination of the little bit of sourish taste of the strawberry filling and the sweet frosting. The combination was superb!
