Homemade Dumpling

Homemade Dumpling

This is my first attempt to DIY dumpling all by myself.

Normally I would just help mum to wrap and not helping in preparation of ingredients as well as cooking the dumpling. So this is really my very first time to do from A - Z... hehehe

Since hubby likes to eat "Gan Shui" dumpling so I try to make that on Tuesday. I made about 20 mini "Gan Shui" dumplings.

I am not a fan of "Gan Shui" dumpling and so I decided to make my type of dumpling... so today I made my own dumpling... hehehe... I made 35 pieces altogether...

Happy Birthday Fong

My Best Friend Fong's birthday on the 15th of this month. Made few block of cakes with teddy bears sitting on them and with some assorted chocolate. I know the work is still very rough, hopefully I will improve as time goes. I actually picked up the idea from a book by Debbie Brown and modified the idea abit.

Happy Birthday Bryan and Clement!!!

Went back to Lumut after work yesterday. Started baking and decorating after dinner. Luckily managed to ask grand uncle to help me baked a butter cake in advance so I only need to bake one cake last night. Two of my cousins' celebrating their birthday today. So I decided to make two cake. One is the shape of car for a 14 years old boy and an Elmo car for a 3 years old.

This car cake was decorated using fondant. This is my first time shaping a cake and decorated it with fondant. Took me more than an hour to get it done. Weren't able to make too much detail as I was tired by then. May be should plan better next time. The base cake is the butter cake my grand uncle baked.

This elmo cake was a nutella cake which I baked last night. Decorated it with buttercream and fondant. Used fondant for the eyes, nose and lip. The rest of the face was decorated with buttercream. The eyes of Elmo was too heavy and it actually dropped out when it arrived in BSB. Managed to put it back but not as nice anymore lor. Sigh.. Next time have to consider the weigh of the fondant if were to decorate the cake like this again.

Flower cake

Using the new heart shape silicon pan I bought from Gina's KC Store in Singapore I baked this raisin butter cake and covered it in fondant. All the fondant figurines on it are also made form the goodies I bought from her shop. (Finally have time to play with my fondant since coming back to Brunei.) The cake is still sitting nicely in the box as no one want to cut it. LOL
