Pandan Chiffon Cake

Baked Pandan Chiffon with my new 23cm Tube Pan. 

Kind of excited as it's my first time trying so big pan. 


i'm glad it turned out well, fluffy and tall 


Brought this box of Pandan Chiffon for our Pinic at Botanic Gardens.

Have a picture before pinic! 

my kids so entertain me.. haha 
when NUS Orchestra just started playing Star Wars, my cake left 3 slices *sweat* it's either the cake is damn nice or they are simply hungry..

While baking my bff's cake, i had extra chiffon sheets, and so our wedding anniversary wordings are the same white chiffon.

Not very straight though.

Happy Birthday to my BFF Bud Ris

Happy Birthday to my BFF, Charis aka Bud Ris. A bubbly girl whom i met in S.G.T with a packet of 50cents Lemon Barley. Hehe.

Her birthday is actually on 24 Sep, i had to bake earlier just in case i have no time to bake a day before and whenever i rush, the chiffon tends to fail.. So, play safe, i thought i better bake it today.





Instead of the usual ombre, i decided to do something different :) sorry my layering still not straight. I super love Susanne's bakes.. the above cake is based on 18cm rainbow cake recipe. You may want to give it a try by clicking on the right side of my page, look for rainbow.

18 Sep 2016 - a surprise meet up arranged with her hubby, Jimmy to meet at Suntec City. I'm glad that it was well received and feedback of the cake taste was good :)

my love, my bff my bud ris my everything. she is the one, the one who i dun meet often and yet we are always on the same frequency. This is real friendship. 



At night she sent me the cut out of the cake.

Happy 21st Birthday Nicholas


The Teo Family celebrated Nicholas' advanced 21st Birthday on 12 Sep 2016 at IMM's Hai Di Lao.
I was cracking my head hard on what to bake for him, then i came across Susanne's bake here. It took me 7hrs on Sunday to bake the bottom rainbow and top blue vanilla chiffon, plus the white wordings.
I only bake the semi-circle rainbow on top most yesterday morning.

first line up the colours properly, cuz it's my first time baking a 9" chiffon cake. 





 below are the steps on how to layer each colour, all learnt from Susanne's book.






by blue colour my meringue collapsed, hence the wavy look.. haha

now baking the upper tier, got some leftover batter, trying on cupcakes.


lastly, the semi-circle rainbow. as i do not have the exact 15cm tube pan, i tried using my smallest tube pan to make the above. made 2 cuz i have leftovers. 

Nic and Mag

so glad it was well delivered and all said nice. =)
see the curvy blue, this was what i meant.. the meringue collapsed.. haha
