Birdae cake..

So I was deeply inspired by Simone Logue's Vanilla slice with passionfruit icing I had in Sydney... It's the kind of dessert that taste pretty.. has the right amount of sweetness.. fresh fruity flavor and sort of left tingles in your mouth..
Ok.. I'm not good with words and describing things.. but the idea was.. I wanted to make cakes that look & taste pretty and actually make u feel pretty after eating it..

I was quite happy with how the cake turned out.. BUT.. only the aesthetic of it.. I was lucky enough my friends find it too pretty to be eaten as it tasted awfull! T.T *sobs*

The only major thing that went wrong was I can't find fresh passionfruit at my local grocer. I have to get them at the market, which I hadn't had the time so this time I used passionfruit syrup.. I swear, is the last time i'll ever use passionfruit syrup.. not only it ruined the flavor.. but the scent too.. haha.. yeah that bad..
It's overly sweet and it doesn't have that fresh passionfruit fragrant.. smelled more like rotten fruit..*over exaggerating* but it's a good lesson learnt.. always use Fresh & premium ingredients.. :D
