What's Our Secret to Yummy-licious bakes?

Happy Mother's Day

Chocolates and Roses aren't reserved only for Valentine's Day ;)

 Individually packed Choc cupcakes with Dark Choc Honey ganache for those special Mummies this Mother's Day weekend.

And just cuz you can never have enough chocolate:

Plain & Simple

 Mini Red Velvets

 Cappuccino Brownies

2 variations of a Carrot Cake: one finished with pumpkin seeds and dried apricots; the other with walnuts and cinnamon

It's looking like a bright 2012 :)

2011 slipped by so quickly! So now I'm back in Kuching and slowly getting back into the groove of things, squeezing in some bakes in between. So far, the new year is looking Bright and Cheerful!

Our Year-End Dessert Presentation!

It's a bittersweet feeling now that I've come to the completion of my Patisserie course... Glad for what I've learnt during the year, of what I've managed to accomplish, for the people I've met along the way. My deepest gratitude to our amazing Chef instructors/tutors who made each class fun, interesting and so enjoyable! It was a little sad emptying out my locker, knowing I'd probably not be seeing our Patisserie kitchen again (unless of course I return for Year 2 to complete the Diploma ;) Hmmm).
Anyway, with all assessments behind us it was time to focus our efforts on our 'Festive Celebrations' themed Year End Buffet...
