There are wedding favours, and then there are ROM favours.
For the benefit of non-local readers (if any), I shall explain what ROM refers to. In the strictest sense, ROM refers to the Registry of Marriage in Singapore but we Singaporeans who are fond of abbreviating everything have taken to calling the solemnization of a marriage […]

Why “funky”, was the question The Hubby asked. Because I would like to think that these two new flavours I concocted are original and unconventional, that’s why!
The idea to use matcha (green tea powder) and cocoa powder with the fantastic biscotti recipe I obtained (from a baking class I attended) came up more than 2 weeks ago. […]

I have 2 , no I have 3 shadows at home, especially when I’m baking in the kitchen. Needless to say, 1 of the shadows belongs to me, and the other 2 shadows I have are my […]

Take III, and I promise it’s the final take of strawberry sweethearts, for a while. In a week, I’ve made it 5 times (and one more order to go on Monday). I do think it’s quite enough. As a matter of fact, I think I’m overdosed to the point of being indifferent to it now.

Didn’t I say I was going to make another attempt soon?

Did some […]

Ended up that my biscotti became such a hit with men! The Hubby loved it (to my pleasant surprise) so much he had them for breakfast when I initially packed 5 slices for his supper at work, C’s husband loved it, and same goes for her colleague who was there for the movie night too.
Having received much […]

Attended yet another of Joycelyn Shu’s workshop at Shermay’s. If you have been visiting Joycelyn’s blog, you would have read about her laborious undertakings to perfect the ‘jewel-like confections’, which she confesses to have quite a fixation on.
I myself missed quite a few perfect opportunities to taste these legendary cookie sandwiches made by some of the world’s best acclaimed pâtisseries […]

Attended a workshop conducted by Pastry Chef Hannah Wong of The Patissier at Shermay’s yesterday afternoon. There was no hands-on; it was just a demo and food tasting session.
On the whole, it was a rather hectic session, with Hannah rushing to complete all 3 cake recipes:- Tiramisu, Chocolate Fudge and Pavlova. I was barely coping […]

This post is long overdue. And I apologize for that. Frankly, I can’t even remember which day it was when I attended Valerie’s workshop to learn how to bake these delectable strawberry hearts.
Confession time. I have been meaning to make these strawberry hearts after attending the class but I have tons of excuses to give for […]

A very dear friend of mine requested for some cupcakes as part of her birthday celebration.
This friend has been supportive of my baking hobby right from the first time I met her, and she tells me that she visits my blog here to take a look at the pictures I’ve posted up when she’s having […]
