Made 2 other small ones but forgot to take their picture because it was a crazy hectic day! Kinda like MasterChef. Time limits are thrilling, gosh.

It looks really pretty naked but I just wanted to fluff it up a little! Add some personality and dimensions to the cake. Aye... but there's that bitter tinge to it, probably due to the membrane of the orange. Maybe using only the pulp will help. See how, but for now, TADAA~~<br />

Small cakes are so pretty and they leave so much room for creativity. Each one of them can be different despite the identical make up. I feel a bit weird when I think of cakes as living things. Especially when I tell my mum that mousse cakes can sometimes throw tempers :|fionahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03376281496181084015noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5211185813829053045.post-45046628723382550672012-08-19T23:06:00.000+08:002012-08-19T23:07:02.383+08:00Orange Chiffon Cake<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

Only thing though, I'm still not very familiar with my oven's contours. And it looks deceivingly cool even when it reaches temperatures of 200 degrees C. But I remember someone who told me that battle scars like these tell a story, my own story.<br />

Days like these I think I'm the luckiest girl in the world. I bake for people who love me. But most people are loved without limits too. I'm lucky though, not because I'm loved, but because I can see it. If I could, I'd do this everyday. Those smiles are too amazing to be hidden.<br />

Much to improve on... Felt the cake could be a little more moist and the cheesecake a little harder. Of course, food photography skills now tops the list. Things to work upon!<br />
<br />
The new oven is pretty awesome to work with, but we need to warm up to each other a little more (pun intended). Life's getting pretty exciting now... Whether it's nerves or excitement, I can no longer differentiate. But YOLO my friends! ><fionahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03376281496181084015noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5211185813829053045.post-17850344226546814322012-07-29T15:25:00.000+08:002012-07-29T15:27:47.067+08:00Liege WafflesI came back from the USA with an intense fervor to make waffles. So it starts with trying to replicate what I tried at Wafflicious over at Upper Thomson.<br />
<br />
Interestingly, while the normal soft waffles uses baking powder to rise, Liege waffles or some know it as Belgian waffles requires yeast. Thus giving it that doughy, bready texture.<br />

The viscosity is vital here, because we want that "artistic" and unpredictable waffle shape.<br />

I should attempt Coffee next time. I'm not sure if the batter can be kept refrigerated, and since it is yeast, I didn't take the chance because the over fermentation may result in a sour taste. It's been a great afternoon, and here's the modified recipe with some tips I learnt:<br />

This was a random order which I shouldn't have accepted because I'm currently overwhelmed by work and life. But I think I lack the hormone which allows me to reject baking. So yes, despite proudly announcing that finally I have a weekend free from baking, I proved myself wrong again.<br />

I thought a mango cake would taste nice. But contrary to what my tastebuds believed, mango actually tastes like something else altogether when baked. And that is.... GINGER.<br />
<br />
Seriously?! Yup, unbelievable. So this cake wasn't good tasting. Edible but not nice. Wasted my almonds and hazelnuts and one whole mango. Let's just... try again, shall we? :)fionahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03376281496181084015noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5211185813829053045.post-20373974577978185582012-03-29T18:30:00.001+08:002012-03-29T18:30:30.761+08:00Ice Cream CakeOnly my 2nd attempt at an ice-cream cake and it did turn out well! All the fears of "melting moments" were unfounded as my amazing DAISO cooler bag became a mini freezer in itself. While I did wish for a blowtorch in the process, I managed to adapt without it thanks to my strong arms.<br />
<br />
Maybe I should confer baking as a sport?<br />

Perry ordered a cake from me. Fruit cake for a friend's surprise birthday celebration. So there goes Saturday perfecting the slices of the cake. Mango mousse on the inside, yummy food. Makes a happy birthday happier. So we met for dinner at botanical gardens, a little far but still rather nice place at Food for Thought.</div>
