Valentine Cupcakes

I made a few cupcakes for my co-workers to enjoy and here they are chocolate cupcakes with chocolate ganache and buttercreame. Very yummy!

Here's my latest cakes that I made last December. This is not too artsy looking cake because of time-crunch due to holidays. But definitely these cakes taste really good.

Caramel and Apricot Cake

I envited a few friends to have dinner with us at our home. It's perfect idea to envite just a few friends over so I'll get to talk and mingle with them very well. Too many people is hard to divide my time between cooking, intertaining and so on.

Here's what I made for our dessert... it's a yellow cake with two-layers of caramel cream and one-layer of apricot. This is difinetely a very light, moist and delightful cake with a punch of nutty taste of toasted almonds. This is a great dessert to have, if you'll like a cake that's not too rich and heavy.

Carrot cake loaded with goodies

This is my other version of carrot cake loaded with stuffs (raisins, tons of grated carrots, and nuts) or I could make also this extra heavier version too...which is tons of carrots, raisins, pineapple, nuts, and coconuts. This is more likely eating veges and fruits than eating a cake itself.

Ballerina Barbie Cake

I made this cake for my daughter's 3rd birthday. It looks easy but this cake took me 5 hours to make this cake. Maybe because it is my first time making ballerina cake. I guess not too bad hah.

I made a yellow cake with butter cream icing because most kids will prepare to eat yellow cake. My daughter eat chocolate only so my daughter did not eat this cake at all (too bad). I guess she had a bad experience when I made her first yellow cake on her first birthday.

Carrot Cake

This is my first carrot cake with low-fat cream cheese icing(of course). I can't cut it out all the way to non-fat, otherwise it will not be tasty. It is relatively quick and easy cake that it will only take 2 1/2 hours to make if you're working it straight. Wish you can try one!

Fresh Fruit cake

I made this cake for my my friend Joy (thank you Joy for the cake order). This is a chocolate cake filled with strawberry and vanilla swiss buttercream, embellished with basket wave design, top with glazed fresh fruit and my hand-made blue butterflies.

gumpaste cake

I made this dark-chocolate cake with orange-chocolate mouse filling pre-iced with butter cream and covered with fondant. This cake I made for my friend's daughter celebrating her dance recital. Eventhough this cake looks very simple but it is quite a labor intensive especially if you're unsure of what your really heading to--- Over all, it was fun making it.

Yellow cake with chocolate orange liquour

This cake is light, moist and filled with two layers of light chocolate orange liquors. If you are looking for something chocolaty but not too deadly sweet and rich ... this is the cake. Something moist, sweet and refreshingly light.

Here's my chocolate cake covered with chocolate glazed and butter creame.

Tropical Chocolate Chip Cookies

It's made of coconut, banana, oatmeal, walnuts, chocolate chips, flour, brown sugar, butter, and egg. It's more like a sweet on-the-go breakfast food bar. I tried to formulate a cookie that can be breakfast food. My daughter has a sweet tooth and loved this cookie too.

I have to hide my cookie jar because she will be asking for more if it's front of her to see. As my 2-year old daughter says "some morrrrre cookie". Love her so much that I can't help but give her more tiny pieces of cookies at a time.

Thank you cookies

Here's my cookies that I made last month.

Caramel Creme Cake

Here's one my cake that I made last year --- it's checker cake with yellow and chocolate cake, filled with apricot filling and two-layers of caramel creme fillings. This recipe I got from Chef Bo Friberg's cookbook. It's complicated and a long process to make, but making it makes me feel like I'm an aspiring pastry chef. I enjoy making it and even more promising when people who tasted my cakes really love it. But I still have to make and practice more. Hopefully I will find clients that would love to try my cakes one day.

Oatmeal Raisin Cookies

I just finished baking my oatmeal raisin cookies. It's the usual flour, egg, raisins, butter, sugar and oatmeal, but I did a little twist--- I poached the raisins with fruit juice, rum, white wine and sugar. It is really yummy!

Birthday Cake

Here's one of the cake that I made for my friend Kitty. It's yellow cake with strawberry buttercreme filling, pre-finished with buttercreme, covered with fondant and imbellished with spring flowers.

Easter Cookies

These are my cookies I made last easter. It was fun especially having my daughter watching me decorating cookies. My daughter, my little supporter who tells me all the colors that are on the cookies and telling me that they are pretty.
