Strawberry Cheesecake

It's an amazing discovery of how Mascarpone and Cream cheese can work together to produce a perfect combination that's light, yet thick. And it's all because I bought the wrong cheese. I tried a 3:4 ratio and a 1:2 ratio. Both worked out fine, but the more Mascarpone, the more fragile the cake.

This recipe bakes beautifully, without cracks. It's heart-warming to bake this after a long baking drought. Though the exhaustion really did set in after!

It was supposed to be Strawberry, but I guess the flavour didn't really set in. Next time, I'll add more strawberry puree since the cheese overwhelms it so easily. I really thought my design was artistic, but now I can't look at it any other way after what those guys said...







































Possibly one of the happiest moments of this year. In the years ahead, can we keep these smiles on?

Just something to remember things by. I guess it's never too much when you can love like this. :)

Name of a dessert bar
The aftermath of a run
Realisation
Of a self-fulfilling prophecy

Remembering this last time the heart smiled
There were cookie crumbs on faces, on teeth, on hearts

A reminder to never lose sight of what we call love
In this crazy whirlwind of what we call life.

There is no telling how many miles you'll have to run in chasing a dream

Shortbread Cookies

The first time I baked since I started school! And it was part of my campaigning process for ABC business manager. So shortbread cookies shaped into 'F', to win votes. But I think a little less butter might be better. Still though, it tasted good! As they say, the way to anyone's heart is through the stomach!

I really want to thank my roomie for helping me and for being so awesome! Most days I think about how lucky I am to have met her and to have her as a roomie. When she returns to Denmark, I guess I'll be a lonely soul again in hall 16. :(

It's amazing how adorable my friends are. Never thought I could make such great friends in university. Thanks guys, for coming down and for singing the songs. Like I said, it's friends like y'all that gave me the bizmag position. And honestly, if not for Mario and all, I'll be nowhere near the 383 votes. Campaigning was crazy tiring, but the amount of love I felt, is enough to make up for anything.

I guess I can never hit that pause button for baking even though life is rushing by me like a bullet train. University made me know a lot more people and at the end of the day, I realised that passion is everywhere. You know it'll never leave you once you find meaning in doing what you love. Sometimes though, I wish that we could all dare to love a little bit more. Then maybe we could all smile a little bit more.

4 years to learn to love again. Family, Friends, Food. :)

Chocolate Fudge Cake

I think this is my last order for quite some time already. A 3kg Chocolate Fudge Cake for some army boy's birthday!

It was really crazy doing such a big and heavy cake, felt like I was doing weight-lifting everytime I lifted up the cake! But hey, thank goodness I go to the gym. :) But it was an experience and I really hope the cake is fine, though my friend didn't give me constructive advice and he is too nice to me to throw in negative comments. In any case, I was sure I could've done better with a better recipe.

Other than doing Hazelnut Praline for the first time, I printed out my own receipt too! So fun, can't wait to really have my own company next time!
