A slice of cake

It is so near Hari Raya and usually this time of the year, I'd be busy baking and packing, baking and packing and crashing out during the public holidays. This year I did not take orders but made a huge banana walnut cake as a treat for the office department in lieu of hari raya greeting cards.

Craving for vanilla sponge

Every now and then, I get a specific craving for sponge. This time I wanted sponge with fruits. Instead of purchasing a single slice from the bakery I decided why not make a whole cake for the department. This was light and lovely, vanilla sponge layered with fresh cream and mandarins. The almonds on the side was a real pain to attach but superb to eat.

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!
