Lemon Cranberry Bundt Cake

So I had extra lemons and extra cranberries the other day so I decided to go through the many baking books I have to find the perfect recipe for these 2 ingredients. I found this one and was delighted by how it turned out. The texture, beautiful!~ However I still need to work on this cake as the second time I made it turned into an overtly dense cake ( sigh and to think that the second time round I used actual vanilla).

Office Party

Anything to beat the stress in the office. Every now and then we have everyone bring food to the office, this time was for a celebration of promotions. I made some dessert, Orange poppy seed cake, cakey brownies ( these were excellent) and some cupcakes. Dessert were finished by the end of the work day. Such satisfaction

Chocolate Eclairs

Made some chocolate eclairs for the office this morning. Did not have time to make the more liquid chocolate coating for the top so just dipped them in melted chocolate. I feel just as good with a slight snap when you bite into it.Used dark chocolate this time but next time I think may try with milk chocolate. Definitely for the adults!

Chocolate Pavlova

An official order for the luscious chocolate pavlova. Looks like an explosion but it is nice and light with a chewy centre. I love!

Pavlova the Professional Way

It is the best thing to have talented friends who can work the camera. Anyway, I realised that food look so much more appetising when professional shots are taken of them. A lovely picture ( even I am feeling mighty tempted) of a strawberry pavlova I made the other day. Thanks Choon Ean! lurve this!

Trying again

Have been into making pavlovas these days. Why one might ask? cause it does not involve waiting for butter to get to the right temperature, I love the taste and the egg yolks can be used to make custard for trifles. So one sunny afternoon, tried chocolate pavlova and a vanilla cherry trifle. Both can be improved but definitely good enough to eat!

Indulgence

Dark Cherry Chocolate Trifle

Strawberry Pavlova

Passionfruit Panna Cotta


We had department lunch today at the office and I was in charge of organising it. We bought the mains from a few places and I topped it all off with some new desserts that I experimented with last nite. Was glad that everything turned out the way it was supposed to with a few areas that I can improved on in the future. If I could say myself, the dessert was delicious indulgence!
