Chocolate and Orange Blossom Madeleines

Recipe from Chocolate by Maxine Clark.

update: the cocoa powder delivered a wonderful smell and fragrance, however overwhelmed the orange blossom flavours. It was also on the dry side, I think I over baked these batch.

Hong Kong - Mango Mochi

Tried this in Hong Kong, absolutely yummilicious! The mochi has a firm bite and the dessicated coconut compliments the sweet mango filling within.

Simply loved the prints on the back of the carrier. :)

Hong Kong buys

An array of teas from Hong Kong. Found some adorable shell moulds from Shanghai Street too! *beam*

New Toys

I got these gadgets from Daiso awhile back and did not get to photographing them till now. :)

Cheddar Cheese Cupcakes

It almost slipped my mind we're celebrating my bro's birthday in advance. I got into action asap when I got home and made him these cheddar cheese cakes since I have all ingredients on hand. I'm glad he liked it. :) Texture of cake was light and soft, however I'll reduce the amount of cheese the next time I make these. Mum found them too salty too.

Happy Birthday Bro!

Chocolate Raspberries Cupcakes

JA and family loved it. I liked the combination too... The sweetness balances the tartness and sourness of the raspberries. Yumz..
