If you love hazelnuts and chocolate, this ultimate indulgence is definitely something you should not pass up! Store bought Nutella is full of sugar, preservatives, food conditioners and hidden ingredients that you won’t want to ingest a lot of. Besides, it’s not exactly cheap too.
So, why not make your own Nutella or hazelnut chocolate spread instead? You get to control what you put in it and it’s healthier, more natural and tastes just as good, if not better!!!
I made a batch on homemade Nutella or hazelnut chocolate spread recently. Contrary to what you may think, it is . . . → Read More: Healthy homemade Nutella
I have this thing for pineapple tarts, pineapple rolls, pineapple cakes, or whatever you call those crumbly pastries stuffed with pineapple paste. I have tried those Taiwan version and it’s by far the best I’ve ever tasted. It beats all those commercial pineapple rolls.
So, I tried making those Taiwan pineapple cakes instead of paying exorbitant prices for them. Can you imagine it was being sold at RM2 EACH? WTF. That’s too much, isn’t it?
Although it takes a bit more work…this is what I got…
Chinese New Year is just a few weeks away so it’s time to break out the food processor, hand mixer, etc to bake Chinese New Year cookies. One of the cookies I regularly make for CNY are peanut cookies or fah sang pehng / thor thau pneah.
It is rather easy to make but it takes time to roll it into tiny balls before baking. In the olden days, it might take longer because you will need to knead the dough till it’s soft and pliable, which could take hours (although it’s a rather great way to work out . . . → Read More: Chinese New Year peanut cookies

Who would have thought that apple and chocolate could go so well together? I had quite a few apples to spare so I thought I’d bake some of it but we are SO sick of apple crumble, I just want to bake something else. So I surf around the net for ideas and found quite a few cocoa apple cake or apple chocolate cake or chocolate apple cake recipes. This gave me the inspiration to try baking a rich, moist apple chocolate cake, or is it chocolate apple cake? Whatever you wanna call it, it’s rich, chocolaty, moist and . . . → Read More: Combine apple and chocolate to get delicious, rich chocolate apple cake
It’s Chinese New Year or the Lunar New Year season! And the best thing about this festival is loads and loads of good food, especially cookies, cookies and more cookies. ~Yumz~
Yeah, as you well know, I am a real cookie monster and I have this thing for baking all sorts of desserts from cakes to cookies. It’s been awhile since I baked cookies in recent times (due to my cutting calories so that I could fit into a cheongsam I bought for the CNY!) so CNY is as good a reason as any to bake, bake and . . . → Read More: Who cares about calories when it comes to Chinese New Year cookies
I started dabbling with fondant and cake decoration for my daughter’s birthday earlier last month and who knew it can be so darn addictive! It is fun to decorate using fondant.
Here’ what I made for my daughter’s first birthday:
Yep, it’s my very first time making a princess/ doll cake and it’s loads of fun too. Best of all, it sure did impress quite a lot of our guests. (I baked a plain pound cake for the base, so I have time for the decoration.) Heheh..
