Cookie Cutters and More

I have to confess that I sometimes do not act my age. I collect Pooh Bear soft toys, and I have 3 pairs of pyjamas with Doraemon prints.  I also like Chip ‘N’ Dale a lot, but my obsession with all things cute stops here.  I don’t go ga-ga over Hello Kitty stuff in general, […]

Aid for the Kitchen!

The picture above speaks volumes for itself, doesn’t it?
Yes!  At this moment, there is a pink Artisan series KitchenAid sitting proudly on top of my black granite counter-top in my kitchen.  I shan’t go into the full details about how I finally decided on the pink KitchenAid; let’s just say that I left home awfully […]

Cupcake Bundle Set

I have been indulging in some quality baking equipment and ingredients recently.  After attending the Cupcakes Workshop at Shermay Cooking School, I bought this cupcake bundle set (which sets me back by $89.00).  It consists of a cool Cuisipro Deluxe Batter Bowl, Cuisipro Silicone Whisk, Cuisipro Silicone Spatula, 50 regular and 50 mini cupcake cases, […]

Mooncake Moulds

This is for Ling, who wanted to know how the mould for the mooncakes I made in this post looks like…

Many thanks to Elyn, who has kindly consented to my using her picture.
Ling, the mould that I used was the yellow plastic mould above.  You can see that it has a lever, so […]

Yet Another New ‘Toy’!

I have another new ‘toy’ currently stranded in the States. It’s a 24-cupcakes caddy/carrier which I saw on Linen ‘n Things, and they do not ship to Singapore.
So, I implored my colleagues working/training over in the States to get that carrier for me. And they were very nice to accede to my request without much […]

New Toy!

Well… it’s not exactly a toy… but look what the Hubby picked up for me from the Post Office yesterday!

It’s the ultimate 3-in-1 caddy I ordered from Wilton, which can carry 12 regular cupcakes, 24 mini cupcakes, or a cake securely!
I have been eyeing this caddy for months. And I really can’t recall what possessed […]
