I use a rice cooker to bake the cake. It's not fluffy, taste like kueh.

But I will try again tonight using the oven. By the way, how would we know we have over beat the mixture? Cos me slow worker, do step by step.

jane, hmm... must use OVEN to bake... think will be better than rice cooker... (???)

when u overmix, it will be (very) runny... u shud just stir in one direction or just turn on electric whisk on LOWEST speed and JUST go a few rounds just to make sure things get mixed up well.

Havent think of what to make.. if can, i will do up my mommy yummy oreo cheesecake
 
ohh... more pics of food!

can I ask the experts, does voltage have any effect on the mixer? hand held one better or standalone one? I saw only 2 affordable brands, Philips and Kenwood...

BM, how's the ganache? I'm also keen to try ganache but scared it become watery too... let me know how it turn out...

Where can I get the wax paper to line the pan? And I saw this transparent plastic cake shops use to "hold" the side of the mousse cake, can buy from PH?

Thanks in advance!
 
pink.. went courts the other day.. saw a kenwood mixer.. think $400+.. looks like kitchenaid design.. thinking on buying on installment.. :p should get?

jen.. ganache i melt choco 1st den add in cream. turn out nice oso.. think is 60g chocolate, 50g heavy cream..
 
hi Jen

i just got a Kenwood major for my X'mas gift. It's quite good even though the mixer is not stainless steel. u can buy extra stainless bowl from Kenwood.

The voltage is high for my model. u can check it out. i got it from Courts.

I get most my suplies from Phoon Huat.
 
Experienced mummies,
Not the right thread to vent but I am at my wits end. As all of you know, I am currently pregnant and due mid of next month. My gal seems to know that and started her terrible 3 stage (if there is such a stage). She now clings onto me, says no to everything I wanted her to do (simple things like washing hands before eating, she will cry for like 10 mins before relenting) Basically become quite ham bao. She was never like that before. She will say things like, "I dun wan mummies friends" referring the meetup we had at KFC the last round. Really pulling out my hair at the moment cos she had been sick for abt 2 months liao, I just got a bodoh maid, due to weather and lack of sleep my temper has been pretty short. Really not looking forward to giving birth at the moment. haiz
 
muffin
hmm relax. my gal was about 3 too when i was goin to give birth to no. 2. How much did you prepare your gal for the new baby ? Try making her more involved in welcoming the baby. like hey you choose the clothes for baby, then say baby will need her to help this and that. Some realli loves to be in charge so will forget that now everything has to be shared. Since she is a gal, get a doll to do pretend play with a sibling. Slowly i think she will let go
 
Nice n yummy cakes... Yum yum...

Js'mum
Too bad i cant go... quite far for me. Got to make a U-turn along mrt track.. :p

Muffin,
Relax n stay clam... Me too oso get my gal to involve w the baby inside my tummy then. Like morning, will ask her to say morning to bb n kiss n hug on my tummy. Let her listen to the bb n ask her wat did bb say to her something like tat. Sometime when bb kick i quicky let her feel the kick. Let her know that bb coming to play w her.
I think she getting more jealous w bb. As she know bb is coming to share muumy w her
 
Muffin, take a deep breath & relax urself. I hv nv come across wat u hv nw as my 2 boys age gap ia 9 years apart..but like wat CL mentioned, get ur gal involve...like when u go gynec, bring her along, let her c the sibling..heard from friend, prepare a present on hand (dun let her c it), juz when u gave birth tat time, ask ur HB to pass the present to her, tell her tat is a gift from the new arrival mei mei or di di...then she will dote on the baby in future..dunno it true anot but no harm trying...My friend ask me to try but i nv la coz my ds1 9 yo old liao..if i use tat method, he will say me siao dun lie to him la...hahaha..
 
Joanne
agree with you. I actually tell my gal to tell my son in tummy what she wants. Then bought the present , wrapped and left in car. Then when i delivered, i left in the baby trolley and ask her to pick it up as it is present from her didi. She opened and go " wow , didi realli knows what i want leh." " he is clever le". Then now when she sees that toy, she wil tell him you buy for me one le and the boy will just give her that blur look.

Of course it probably would not be useful when the kid is 5 years old. Ha ha my fren used the same method, and her older daughter says " aiya, it is you all who buy one."

But can keep giving the impression that she will be te leader. what ever she do baby will follow. Then she must do all the right thing. If she cry, baby will cry too.
 
Muffin, Both you and your husband must be patient and be assure to your gal that both of you loved her very much. Involve her in welcome the baby is very important. For yourself, relax and don't be too stress out. Pls take good care.
 
Just wonder for the pandan chiffon, can I replace the coconut milk with fresh milk?

Ya... Js, is your house near MRT? How to go from MRT?

Jo, hope the photos that I post give you some ideas on the chiffon pan.
 
hi mummies,

Thanks for all the advice. I will get her more involved in the prep of her baby bro. I just need to vent cos I dun really want to vent at my HB as he is recently v stressed with work and too many things happened to my family recently. Feels so much better after letting it out. Thanks for hearing my rubbish. hahaha.

Jenjen, thanks for ur advice, will try out that method.
 
Hi Muffin,
I can understand how you feel at this moment. I too am in the mid trimester of my pregnancy and my gal is also coming to 3 soon. Her behaviour changes at times, especially lately, everything given to her or ask her to do whatever things, she would surely say 'bu yao bu yao' and also likes to cry (especially when going to her playgroup in the morning). Guess we really need to be patience with them and try not to stress ourselves out or else we will be the one who is going to suffer beside the little ones.
Perhaps before you put your gal to sleep at night, try to get her involve by holding her hand to touch your tummy and then ask her to tickle her didi or mei mei inside the tummy. Think it will help eventually for her to bond with her siblings. And not forgetting to keep telling your gal that you love her even though next time when didi or meimei is born. That's what I have been doing every night and it does helps abit.
That's my 2 cents worth of sharing.

muffin, no need to thanks. I din help much. Just vent whenever u need to.
