YUMMY luck!

The birthday boy had a tummy full of chocolatey gold! haha This Chinese themed golden ingot was sculpted with layers of chocolate sponge, dark ganache and vanilla buttercream. Even the mini gold nuggets popping out the top were edible too! I was covered in gold dust and lusters when I was finally done painting this massive hunk of gold. hehe!!

This cake was lots of fun, a very pretty lady had commissioned me to do a cake for her boyfriend who loved playing baccarat. He loves betting banker and that's why we had the winning hand placed there. I hope it was a nice surprise for him, the entire table and it's little trinkets on top were all made from cake and handpainted too! Deliciously sweet dealer fingers! *mmmm

NEW CAMERA!!!!

Well; not exactly a new CAMERA; but a new lens for my camera! WEeEeeeee!! hehe
It's a 50mm Sigma lens i've just gotten with good help from my friend P.A (Thank you!)
I had to replace a kit lens for my antique D60 Nikon that I broke during my recent travels to Japan. Snow... ice on floor.. Su slipping everywhere. Not a pretty sight; and just pure bad luck for my lens. :(

It was my first time making such an expensive camera investment in a long time but after fiddling with it in the camera shop awhile....

THIS shot, helped me conclude. YES. I WANT THIS ONE!! hehehe

Mr Android
and I went over to The Deli; at Micasa to test out my new baby on some earl grey icecream, spongerolls and potato chips! MMMMmmm!




So it's been close to a month now.. that i've been using it and I can't complain; other than the fact it gets a little bit difficult with low light conditions and taking pictures of larger objects or wide angle scenery. I brought this little baby to Taipei; Taiwan with me 2 weeks ago; ...



....looked at the 101 through my camera and laughed to myself *crap*.. this is not going to work. LOL

Tired of CHocolate eggs for Easter

OH comE ON!!!
Every year as easter sunday closes in, supermarkets and gift stores start piling their shelves up with chocolate eggs of a dozen sizes and pastel shades.
Mm.. I suppose everyone loves a chocolate egg with bit of nuts and caramel, or a hollow divine tasting bunny from Lindt! Oh I could eat 10 of those bunnies in replacement of 3 meals. *guilty*

At Delectable this year; I wanted to do something fun! SOmething fluffy! Something colourful and yummy! After the good response we received for our bouquets at valentines day; I decided it might be cute to do a spray of themed easter cookies too! We have a ducky, chick, bunny, easter egg and a cute little plump carrot! To top it all off; I added a fluffy bunny plush toy on a stick! TOO CUTE!
They're going for Rm50 each set and are available on shelf or for pre order. Contact us at the Pavilion Mall outlet or The Gardens Mall to reserve them for the weekend. I've got limited fluffy bunnies; so be quick guys!

xo!
