Get your jelly on #26 – Dear I Miss U

Billy — Wed, 26 Oct 2011 00:02:39 +0000

Day 26. Who do you miss the most? I still remember there was a recipe we had to write for a MasterChef’s challenge, a dish that we will cook for our love ones. But sadly I didn’t make it that far to really get the chance to cook that dish I’ve written down which was [...]

Get your jelly on #13 – BOMBE ALASKA

Billy — Wed, 12 Oct 2011 16:04:43 +0000

Day 13. Whoever watched MasterChef Australia season 3 would have seen me making my very first Bombe Alaska during the pressure test. I obviously enjoyed the challenge a little too much and started deviating from the original Bombe Alaska that we were shown before the challenge. I actually didn’t even think that it could be [...]

Get your jelly on #04 – JAFFAS

Day 4. Go hard or go home! I have jellies, I have pudding, how about a “cake”? By the way, before I get into the fun bit, I think is important for me to remind you all that October is Nation Breast Cancer Awareness Month. There are so much you can do to support, buy [...]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO THE POM!

Billy — Wed, 15 Dec 2010 01:01:37 +0000

Happy Birthday to The Pom! Here’s a toast, cheers and three pats on the back to my partner in crime, The Pom, because is his “Cow One” today! Don’t ask me why, but ‘cow one’ in Chinese means birthday. This is a white chocolate cake I baked last night for him but didn’t put in [...]

Dundee Cake

Billy — Tue, 05 Oct 2010 21:23:04 +0000

[donotprint] I am still flicking through The Great British Book of Baking the Pom bought for me during a recent trip back to UK. After having much success with the mandarin marmalade and Grand Marnier pudding, I’ve decided to give another recipe in the book a go and have chosen the Dundee Cake, supposedly to [...]

Chocolate Macarons Simnel Cake

Billy — Sun, 04 Apr 2010 14:33:43 +0000

A modern twist of a traditional Easter cake. A very last minute decision when The Pom mentioned about this cake that his mum will usually make during Easter every year, it sounds so very interesting and I simply have to make it. “There were twelve apostles but then one of them is naughty and I [...]

Nanaimo Bar with the Australia Day touch

Billy — Tue, 26 Jan 2010 15:13:39 +0000

Nanaimo Bar, sounded like a crazy Japanese snack when I first heard it. Only then realised that Nanaimo is actually a city on the Vancouver Island in Bristish Columbia, Canada. The Nanaimo city so proud of this confectionery chocolate squares, they even have a page fully dedicated to the Namaimo Bar on their official website. [...]

Chocolate cake with olive oil and fleur de sel

Billy — Tue, 10 Nov 2009 15:27:51 +0000

The cake sounds horrible in English, but if I put it in French… Gateau au chocolat à la fleur de sel et huile d’olive. The cake definitely sounds so much sexier in French, don’t you think? In short, just as the title says, it is a chocolate cake with olive oil and sea salt (fleur [...]

Victoria Sandwich for the Queen’s Birthday!

Billy — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 13:19:48 +0000

The Pom is very inspired by the Masterchef Australia show lately, and he even suggested that he will make cupcakes after watching Julie making her “Lemon Diva” cupcakes on last friday night cooking class episode. But soon the Pom realised it is the Queen’s Birthday long weekend here in Australia, he changed his mind and [...]

But there is also one man who is bringing the real Paris to your doorstep, and that person is Adriano Zumbo. Need no introduction, Zumbo has become a household name among all food bloggers, and reached celebrity [...]
