Tranquil Bali..

Another trip to Bali.. yet never got tired of it.. ^^

I know I had made a post about this place,

but with this kind of view, this place definitely deserves another posting

:D

Best way to enjoy Bali..

u, me, the beach & a bottle of champagne.. ^^

Thought this was way to cute to be missed ;P

Birthday cake

This was a cake order from a lovely girlfriend of a policeman...

She wanted a simple cake of just her and him..

*Awww* <3

if you are wondering why he's not wearing black/blue..

that's the color of indonesian police uniform.. hmm..

it reminds me of those sheriffs in those cowboy movies ;P

*no pun intended*

Got rice?

Tripple chocolate cupcakes topped with rice???

It was meant to be rice, but who'd be willing enough to eat them from top of a cupcake, rite.. lol

These are white chocolate sprinkles, cupcake order for a rice mogul..

let the Teddys party in a bed of fluffy fragrant rice... ;P

Bling Bear

Our Bears might look cute & cuddly..

who knew they love or AP watches and sports cars ;P

Vanilla & Choco ganache cupcakes topped with edible black glitters.

Bling2.. ;P

Watches.. Lamborginis... That's how our bears roll.. ;P

Pastry Puff

Last year a dear friend of mine gave me a very inspiring recipe book full of delectible recipes but I never get to try them out till a few months ago.. The book has hands on easy instructions (or so i thought) on making pastries from scratch, so I said to myself.. Lets make some mini choco croissant!

OK.. the pastry folding part was easy.. but the pastry dough making part, was a total mess! No pics on that :D
luckily I was introduced to a perfect solution.. a supermarket away.. ready made rolled pasty puff that is.. ;)

with the puff pastry taken care of, all that's left to think about is the filling..

cream cheese,chocolates,sausages, ham, cheese... hmm.. quattro formaggi? :D

be creative, make your own perfect concoction, shapes and sizes!

I'd highly recommend this book.. Thx,Tri! ;)

easy step by step instructions along with pictures...

great way to learn the basics of pastry making,

then on you could go on your way

making pastries can't get easier than this..
thx to Chef Edo ready made puff pastry
"homemade" pastry takes only 12mins to make! ^^

They are available at most supermarkets & baking store,
and could keep up to 3 months in the freezer.
