A table for two

Day 30. Boys & Girls, I’VE MADE IT! 30 days, 30 recipes, 30 videos, I can proudly say that I have finally completed this bigger than Ben Hur Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge for the Breast Cancer Awareness month. I hope you all enjoy my creations as much as I enjoyed making [...]

Day 29. Keep popping, don’t stop till you get enough! Guess what? I’ve just spent yesterday working part time at Patisse, doing pastry! I was pretty nervous and felt like first day back to school again. Everything was new and unfamiliar to me, I had to ask lot of questions where things are, how to [...]

Day 25. Babeh, babeh, babeh… oh! Another boozy jelly! And a colourful one too! So what have you done this month to raise awareness about breast cancer? Instead of painted my blog pink, this Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge has definitely jellyfied my blog to a very wobbly month! I think any [...]

Day 23. It is the time of year, my eyes are watery and itchy, my nose is blocked, I sneeze non stop and my head is about to explode! It’s hay fever time! None of the antihistamine medication I took really work but rather makes me drowsy and groggy. If anyone out there knows a [...]

Day 17. Ain’t no mountain high enough. Good to be back in Sydney! Peter and I have just finished a 4-day cooking show in Perth at Coles supermarket and we had an absolute ball! At times it felt like we were still on Masterchef, fighting over prepping benches and stealing each other ingredients, but most [...]

Day 16. The black beauty. I always wanted to make a black jelly since the beginning of this Royal Selangor 30-day ‘Get your jelly on’ Challenge and trying to think of what I can use to make one. I tried glass jelly powder which didn’t work out that well, it was muddy and lack of [...]

Rock your socks off! The kids on Junior MasterChef finally had to face their first taste test, and it was a big chunk of Rocky Road! I could just see how much fun it would be gnawing down the big chunk of chocolate trying to find 20 ingredients hidden inside. It brings back a lot [...]

Day 7. Guess who’s birthday it is today? Most people I’ve shown the Royal Selangor Nick Munro jelly mould to will immediately associated with Madonna. (I wonder why?) And when I asked The Pom for jelly ideas, he had a play with them and naturally cupped them on his chest. ~*palmed face*~ Besides, this 30-day [...]

Only 10 minutes to go… It is my turn to plate up the dessert, I instantly knew I was in trouble. My chocolate delice in the fridge had not set yet! Peter looked at me, he wasn’t happy! (Cue that heavy background violin shriek with a heavy thump at the end and follow by the [...]

Have a cupcake. I’ve baked many cupcakes before but funny enough, this is the first time I blog about making cupcakes. Don’t get me wrong, I do love cupcakes, but I simply don’t bake them often enough. Every time I pick up my kitchen mixer or dessert cookbooks, I always end up choosing something a [...]

Sweet corn ice cream or ice block to be exact, is one of my childhood favourites. Tweet

Gone pear-shaped… My waistline, definitely. Isn’t it funny that all my t-shirts miraculously shrunk overnight? I blame the dryer, it has absolutely nothing to do with my over indulging eating habit off late. I am not here to talk about my curvy figure, but what’s more important to me right now is my personal ‘space’ [...]

Someone asked me recently whether I am a recipes developer because she is looking for someone who can in charge of the recipes and flavour profiling side of things for her new venture by opening a restaurant. As much as I like the idea of her project, I humbly said no, I am not a [...]

[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 [...]
