Breadmachine's White Loaf

Tried my first loaf of bread using the bread machine last Monday. All was looking good till proofing when there was a power trip and the bread collasped! Sigh... I baked the bread anyway to see how the texture will turn out. It was like a semi-hard plaster sigh. Not too certain if the power trip will fail the bread. Given it another shot today, will know how it turns out in 3 hrs. :) *fingers crossed*

This is the recipe.

Update: My 2nd loaf failed again. I suspect it could be the sea salt I used, or maybe the water is too warm it killed the yeast, or insufficient water. I'll try manually next time.

Chocolate Mousse


I never quite enjoyed mousse but this is ooh so good. I added a good additional portion of about 200g of dark chocolate. Yumz! Jac enjoyed this tremendously. :)

Panna Cotta


Blueberry and Matcha Vanilla Panna Cotta :)

Update: I find it on the firm side, can definately do with lesser gelatine.

Vanilla Cupcakes






The cakes were on the dense side although flavourful. Perhaps I overbeat the mixture whilst combining the wet and dry ingredients. Will definately try again.
