Join me on my quest of making homemade treats with less sugar!
Here’s the most current chiffon cake recipe that I use. It’s just a typical chiffon cake recipe but I altered the order of the ingredients being added. This method is good for novice baker as it results in a smoother batter. The cake texture is more cottoney and the flavour is good no matter it's... Continue Reading →
Here’s another recipe for banana nut cake. The previous recipe I wrote in 2017 involves a mixing method called the “two-stage mixing method” (refer to Banana Walnut Bundt Cake for details). This time I’m using the traditional creaming method. At the same time, I was trying something new that a sister at church taught me,... Continue Reading →
Here’s the newer and upgraded version of Vanilla Chiffon Cupcakes (Tang Mian Method) with Meringue Buttercream. The previous recipe involved warming the oil before mixing with the flour. And this time I’ve totally ditched this process. Compared to the traditional mixing method, this method in which the egg yolks are incorporated during the last stage... Continue Reading →
Here’s a cake I made for a friend last month. Like I’ve mentioned in my previous blog post, Chocolate Chiffon Cupcakes (2), I switched to another method when I prepare my cake base. I’ve been using this for a couple of months and so far I’m pretty satisfied with it. 這是上個月為朋友做的蛋糕，EC在上一篇網誌朱古力戚風杯子蛋糕(2)中提及過自己最近改變了做蛋糕的方法。這個新方法已嘗試了幾個月，暫時都非常滿意。 Chestnut Cake with Fresh...

Here’s another method for making Pandan Chiffon Cake. I used the tang mian method as found in my Pandan Cotton Cake, but without the water bath. I used to use a combination of pandan leaves and pandan extract but this time I am only using pandan leaves. If you want a more vibrant colour, go... Continue Reading →
Here’s a cake I made for our family gathering over the weekend. I paired up lychee and raspberry for a sweet and tart combination as well as a beautiful contrast of colour. I was trying to add a hint of rose flavour too, but my kids didn’t like the flavour after a taste test so... Continue Reading →
Here’s the cake I made for my uncle and cousin for their birthdays at the end of December. We didn’t get to celebrate together amid the pandemic and only went for a drop off. The Ontario government announced stricter COVID-19 measures two days ago and beginning today, kids are back to remote learning again for... Continue Reading →
A friend of mine told me that her banana chiffon cake didn’t rise much and asked if I knew the reason why. I’ve written a recipe on Chocolate Banana Chiffon Cake quite some time ago and I didn’t take many pictures that time. I couldn’t remember how much my cake rose. As I happened to... Continue Reading →
I’ve signed up for a few BIble study groups together with some online classes so I’m a bit behind on updating my recipes. This is the one I made back in February for my sister’s birthday. She has always been a chocolate lover so I had no reason not to make her a chocolate cake.... Continue Reading →
I had some leftover durian flesh from my No Bake Durian Cheese Tart that I made last week so I used that for a pound cake. This is pretty much the same as my Vanilla Pound Cake, just with durian added. If you love durian you gotta try this cake. 上星期做免焗榴槤芝士撻時剩下了少許榴槤肉，於是便做了這個磅蛋糕。蛋糕配方基本上跟雲尼拿磅蛋糕差不多，只是增添了榴槤肉而已，榴槤控一定要試試。 If you don't have... Continue Reading →
