Greetings people! :))))
So, i baked cupcakes ytsd. Specially baked it for Novina, another intern in the company. It's her last day tmrw already & it would be the last time seeing her today :(
I'll be the only intern left after tmrw :'''''''(
Went to Phoon Huat after work to get some baking stuffs. & i bought the cutest cupcake casing ever! It's pink with ribbon prints. I really like it.
Baked 3 different flavors, Oreo, nuts & raisins! Wanted to bake bananas but i ran out of them boohoooooo........
Jon helped me with some of the baking because he had a nights out, BUT I DID MOST :b
He wanted me to snap this photo of the dishes he had washed after baking. Haha. I bake, he wash! :b
Airborne necklace from the boy :))))
Side note.. You know i really love baking & i remember i used to bake every single week w/o fail during those secondary school days & miss those days where i baked tons & tons of cookies with Samantha for a friend's birthday. My dream job was to be a baker and set up my own bakery. Haha suddenly this reminded me of this "shake leg cafe" name given by my friends.
Honestly, i did thought of setting up an online bakery shop but the lack of confidence didn't allow me to. Some more my piping skills need to be improve soooo badly!
Hahaha, it would really be good if i am able to set up my own bakery. But let's wait till my confidence level is higher & when my baking skills improve :B

2 tablespoons milk
1. Have butter and milk at room temperature.
2. Place butter in small bowl of electric mixer and beat until butter is as white as possible.
3. Gradually add about half the sifted icing sugar, beating constantly.
4. Beat in the remaining icing sugar.
5. Mixture should be smooth and easy to spread with a spatula.
I used the same recipe for the rainbow cupcake as well, just that i didn't add the oreos.
The oreo cupcakes tasted really good! But for the rainbow cupcake, it turned out a little sticky, not sure why though. Perhaps i didn't store it in a right way.
It's a great recipe, you can try it & let me know how it goes :)
Thanks so much gal! I'll try it out and share with u again (:
ReplyDeleteHopefully all the ingredients can be found in supermarket like NTUC...
