Banana Pumpkin Seed Chiffon


Could not bear seeing some very ripe bananas going to waste. Made a chiffon last night and sprinkled some pumpkin seed on top. this was a perfect chiffon. Tasted lovely too.

Pandan Chiffon


Had a craving for simple pandan chiffon yesterday so decided to just make one at home as opposed to buying it from random places. Don't like the ones with garish green colouring and a lot of commercial pandan chiffon lack the fragrance of pandan. Homemade always better.

I recalled it was about 11pm after Naddy's farewell dinner that I started extracting pandan juice. I decided to be ambitious and make 2 cakes instead, not allowing the pandan juice to go to waste. The first one, as pictured above came out as soft as clouds. Incredibly fragrant and so comforting when eaten. The second one.....hopes of blessing someone with it today were dashed as it totally collapsed on me because it was undercooked. At 1230am, my oven timer rang and I thought hmmm looks cooked enough only to be dissapointed this morning. Never bake when in a bad mood or when sleepy.

Will definitely make again, hands up Pandan Chiffon fans, who knows one might come your way soon enough.

Chiffon Galore


Gula Melaka Chiffon- perfect!


Red Dragon Fruit chiffon - sliced

Red Dragon Fruit Chiffon

My hands were itching to try our numerous types of chiffon over the long holidays. I managed to make a banana chiffon, red dragon fruit chiffon and gula melaka chiffon. they turned out nice but am typing this before I have even tasted it. I had made 2 of the above chiffon previously and horror of horrors, they deflated, collapsed on me. Glad at least they held their shape this time.

The Red Dragon Fruit Chiffon yielded a nice pinkish toned batter but unfortunately, once baked there was only a slight tinge. Unique though. The texture of the gula melaka one was perfect!

The banana chiffon, always tasty. This I have tasted before:)

Passionfruit Chiffon



A light and immensely fragrant chiffon cake made with fresh passionfruit. Only problem I had was that it was so soft when it cooled that I had difficulty removing the cake from the pan. I have thought of a solution to that already. A keeper!
