My All Time Favourite!!!

Ever since from young, I LOVE Pandan Chiffon Cake. I still remember that there was this bakery near my place which sold the yummiest pandan cake ever. However, the bakery has changed hand and their cakes are not as good anymore. In fact, its is almost impossible to find a good pandan cake. Either there is too much coconut milk or pandan essence/paste and etc. Bengawan Solo's pandan chiffon cakes curb my cravings at times, but not always. Something is missing, but I can't pinpoint what exactly. It lacks a specific "ummph".  Therefore, I am always trying to perfect my pandan chiffon cake again and again till I finally got it. I'm OVER THE MOON!!

This cake is soft, moist, fragrant and fluffly, just the way I like it.

Happy Children's Day!!

Boy, it has been ages since I last celebrated Children's Day. Children are the most innocent and pure. And once in awhile they will say the darn-est thing. Just recently, I asked my 5yr old niece to count to 1 to 20, she literally says " 1, 2 , 20"...OMG, she is soooo funny, everyone around who heard just burst into laughter. If only I was so witty at her age.

Little cupcakes for little people we love. Happy Children's Day, dearies!

Excuse me while I have an uncontrolled gush of high.

Vanilla French Meringue

Hey, look!!! I have made pastel colored clouds. I am a happy baker!

This week I have made french meringue as requested. French Meringue is a delicate desert with a light texture and a melt in the mouth feel. As I am whipping the egg whites, it slowly forms into an airy white mass, somehow or rather it reminds me of clouds. Soft, white and fluffy. So COOL!! Downside is, they took forever to bake. 2425625627hrs, not like I'm counting. And plenty of leftover egg yolks.

But DARN these "clouds" tasted GOOOOOOD!!

Happy Teachers' Day
