Chocolate Mochi Bread 朱古力麻糬波波
A few days ago my baking buddies, Bonnie and Erica, and I were talking about mochi cheese bread. The main issue was that the ones made without the premix became dried out easily.

Basic Vanilla Cake 雲尼拿蛋糕
This is another basic cake recipe that I use for fondant decorated cakes. Like my one bowl chocolate cake and yellow cake, this cake is firm enough to withstand the weight of fondant yet soft and fluffy in texture. My inspiration came from Cake Boss but just like my yellow cake, I've switched to the reverse... Continue Reading →
