A Soft Come Back to Baking by Order

It's been quite sometime since my last posting. Been busy with the cutie lil' newcomer in the family. Since he was born I had to hang my mitten and apron. Not only was I busy with him, the house chores seems never ending too 😓.

However, my baby is almost two now, and I seriously feel the urge to resume my baking activity, to give way to all the ideas that is jamming my little brain.

Hence, I have started to bake again the last few weeks. Other than baking, I am sharpening my skill on cooking my ancestors specialty dish, and I know almost everybody is familiar with Beef Rendang. A dish that need patience (and passionate too) in cooking it. Why? Because this dish needs at least four hours to get to the right consistency. Btw, I managed to sell 9 kgs of Rendang last Ramadhan *grin*. Well let's talk more about it in another posting. For now let me welcome me back to the baking (or non-baking) world. 😃👏👏👏

Engagement Cake

This cake I made for my husband's cousin who had her engagement last week, 16 April 2011.

 

It was my second attempt working with fondant. The first time I did was covering cupcakes and made figurines. But this time round I was determined to brush off my doubts for covering a full cake. And so, I did it. I prepared myself quite early by gathering all the tools I'd need for the project a few days prior to making it. But still, I started quite late that Saturday night- waiting until everbody went to sleep so I could work in peace :).

 

So, this is it. From here I hope it will be a smooth sailing in the fondant world.

Low Fat Berry Oat Muffin

This is a recipe I obtained from allrecipes. I came accross to this
when I received my daily feed recipe. As usual, I am always interested
in making healthy food and since the ingredients are all ready stock,
I couldn't wait to make it.

I'll come back with an update of the recipe. For now, indulge the
pictures :)

Es Pisang Ijo - Banana Pancake

The English name, I am not so sure about it. But it does look like a pancake with banana filling, right?
