cakes, cakes, and more cakes!

my first attempt at baking a "big" cake, topped with my favourite strawberries and chocolate cream! =)

i'm really pleased with the final outcome. A tall and sweet strawberry cake, heehee.

Pretty not??? :P I love the cross-section, revealing the strawberries with cream.

And of course, how i can miss out my cuppies ..!

Vanilla cupcakes topped with whipped cream and topped with strawberries.

I need to clear out my fridge, too many cakes in it! Mummy is screaming at me already! Any takers for guinea pigs?

vanilla vanilla & more vanilla pls!

as the title suggest, i've been working quite hard to get my fine tuned purrrfect vanilla cupcake.

finally, i found a recipe that i'm really quite pleased with. it yields soft yet moist cakes, and the texture remains even the next day!


and after 2 failed attempts with whipped cream, a tinge of phobia with whipped cream is growing in me.. however, with the help of a podder from LesDames, I managed to apply correct techniques to the cream and making it fluffy, and firm!

here's the pictures..

Yesterday, i met up with a Uni fren for dinner.. since she came down all the way from Bukit Batok with her bf, just to have dinner with me (*touched* haha...), i decided to bake something for her to try! And here it is.. pretty colourful ar? :P

Vanilla cupcake with whipped cream frosting

Haven been baking for the past few days!

so... here I am! hehe.

so far, i've got a good chocolate cupcake and orange blueberry cupcake recipe.

time to work on my vanilla cuppies! i found that vanilla cuppies tend to be more temperamental, and thus, i shortlisted 2 different recipes and tried them out.

daddy was my first taster, and he likes it! (btw daddy has a sharp tongue).

i topped it with thick whipped cream, and it turned out to be pretty! tee hee.
