Cup cakes for birthday

Have too many durians at home. Some were bought from Malaysia by sis while some are locals...picked by my MIL from the forested area. I prefer the latter

Ok...I tried making the zebra cake using Farida’s Azerbaijani Cookbook receipe. I didn't have veg oil and used peanut oil instead. Big mistake as it had a funny taste... like the cake has been kept for a while

Cathika,
What is the texture of your zebra cake? It is a little springy?

Anyways, I think mext time I'll substitute the oil with melted butter. Strange thing was that I got some holes in the cake. Wonder why that is?

yany, the cake have very nice zabrea stripes. I would normally 'bang' my cake on the table b4 bake (drop the tin frm a height) so as to let out trapped air bubble. Not sure if the hole could be the reason.
 
Thanks fatmum. I'll do that the next time. I've never experience holes in the cake before... but I guess there's a first for everything! hahaha
 
yany, the strips r beautiful... according to what i read, can only used veg oil like corn oil to bake. peanut oil or knife oil kind of cooking oil will cause a differ in the texture.

And not all cakes can be banged against the table. it will cost the cake to either sink or have a heavy texture according to what i had read b4.
 
hi gals! I've been so busy that dun even have time to read the forum, much less bake! Anyway, my fruits during the weekend.

hi! yany, the zebra cake inside is 'song song' - fluffy one... hmm... means... it's not too wet and when u bite into it, it will melt in the mouth feel... so with the almond bits that i've scattered layer by layer... it makes a delicious bite!
 
re: puffs
wah... i want to do puffs! but hb say eat durian fresh better, dun want me to waste my time leh...
sad.gif
now durians getting really cheap! hee...

re: zebra cake
i am impressed everyone's zebra cakes turn out so well! i'm scared of doing things similar to marble cake cos the strips sure haywire. is zebra cake difficult to do? :p
 
Just pop in to say hello to fellow bakers. Been MIA for quite a while due to busy work and was on leave last week to register my gal for P1. Those mommies with kids going to P1 next yr, have you done your registration?

Peng,
I got the zebra cake from this website http://azcookbook.wordpress.com/2008/02/15/zebra-cake/. The ingredients seems so much simpler's than Auntie Yo's as it uses 2 eggs instead of 10! I guess I would just have to try it once next time as the description from Cathika sounds delicious!

I just came back from Daiso and bought some non-stick mini chiffon cake pans. Hope to try orange chiffon next!

Fatmum,
Your cheesecake looks good!
 
Yany,

Ling,
Ha Ha I need a big cake to do my scrapbook. Mini one a bit difficult.
 
Hi missyLing, care to share on its use?
Wat model? How are your bakes so far? Is it even heat distribution? Wats the price like?

Sorry for the many questions, just trying to narrow down my choices.

1558277.gif
 
Maya: Hahaha wat model? i dun remember its model no. It can bake and grill.

Heat distribution quite even. HB got it for it as a bday gift some years ago. Should be between 500-580 or so..
 
Hmm ok. Cos I couldn't seem to find any on the net to view. Tot there might be a few models. So you've had it for years huh. And still good? Can grill chicken? Any idea wat is the litres?
 
CL,
u managed to enrol tour child into Nanyang.. Wa, u stay very near Nanyang ah??? Old girl??

Cookiepie,
I can't decide whether to put my child in Nan Chiau which is very near home or travel a bit n put her in Rosyth. U staying around Hougang?
 
can gril but mine cannot turn ard kind. there is one which make the chicken turn while its grilling. Hehe but my oven, i dun bear to do grilling.

My is only 38L good enuff to bake.
 
maya: its like dat. I olso see around many times but cant decide on it. Its HB tat gave up and went to get this one since he is paying.
 
B2B3M4
Yup i old girl so happen that I kept my report book and lost my PSLE slip. so enrol last week liao. My not staying near nanyang but from my mum place at commonwealth seems ok

Nan Chiau is good right ? For me if I have a choice I will choose near home but the schools near my house too popular in neighbourhood and anyway my kids are with mum not at CCK so finally go for nanyang without hassle for registration
 
B2B3M4,
I also wanted nan chiau but chances are slim and after school care also difficult to find. Given so many uncertainties with NC, I went for rosyth instead.
 
CL,
That's nice. Wish I have a proper mixer.... lol.

Made orange chiffon cake for my kids so they can have a snack after school. Smells heavenly but a little over done as I had to go pick son up while it was baking. Used Aunt Yo's receipe and really wish I have a proper chiffon pan as it doesn't look remotely like hers!

CL, ur cuppies are nice!!

yany, ur chiffon looks professional!

cookiepie, how come NC chance is slim? i tot it's more difficult to get into Rosyth? did u do voluntary work?
 
Yesterday bought 3 big mango from JW, each weight more than 700g. So today tried to make mango cake. Try to deco the cake but was a mess. Hubby complained just to eat why take so much trouble, hehe!
