Monkey-ing around !
Today, work got a tad overwhelming and I decided to make a small cake for a colleague of mine - hoping to cheer her up! ... and i knew i just had to create this!
Love the coconut trees against the sky blue fondant.. it sure did make her day.

Animals inspiro
I've been dabbling around with a couple of animal theme ideas as I got a little NatGeo-inspired. The lion was a tad tricky as the thick dark mane got too heavy for the molded head. Shall try to do the big five animals in the safaris.. can't wait to have a safari theme order!
Made these few over the weekend...
Had my granny's birthday party over the weekend. And with every year, we have the usual fruity creamy sponge cake which she loves the most. Decided to whip up some rich chocolate cupcakes this year. Topped it with some animal-inspired animals. Surprisingly, the older folks loved it! :)
Oh yes, Happy Birthday Alvin! I'm glad everyone enjoyed the cake :)

Like a spanking new rolling pin
For all passionate bakers out there, you would probably agree with me -
Very often, we would look, we would feel, we would then imagine the cakes, pastries and cookies that can be created with every new baking toy we buy. Even a simple rolling pin - crispy woody touch that just makes me excited thinking of how well my next cookie dough will be flattened out on the table top.
Oh well, call me a baker geek or simply a baker-wannabe if you like - because the thought of baking my next creation never fails to get me all excited.
So here I am, a ba(n)ker in need of somewhere to share my passion. Like a spanking new rolling pin - all ready to roll out any dough - I'm not sure where this blog will lead to, but I hope to share my creations, my thoughts, my geeky-ness about anything and everything about baking. Enjoy!
