Devil's Food Chocolate Cake

While I'm baking those cuppies for my sister, teringat la kat teman2 kerja yang terliur ngan kek ni dalam posting lepas... (especially Dang Fareeha hehehe). Alhamdulillah, there's some ingredient left untuk saya bake sebiji kek ni. Tak sempat nak potong jam pun dah menunjukkan jam 6 pagi... So, terus mandi la... Solat pas tu pi kerja.... Huaaaarrrggghhhhh

Guys... How's the cake babe?????!!!

Wedding Favor Pink & Purple

Salam.

This wedding favor was ordered by my sister for her friend. Chocolate moist mini cuppies with pink & purple theme and premium set with similar theme. What a challenged during baking those cuppies. Hmm... my youngest baby not wanted to sleep till I myself make her sleep (masa ni tengah sibuk buat sugar paste flower), Qayyiem was so busy offering his 'kind' hands which gave me a lots of backache and to make things worst... Air tak adaaaaaaaa....... Huaaaaa....

I chosed to create my own version of 'taman' which i think not very successful ni... But it's okay... Practise make perfect some said! Thanks for the order.

Sunflower for Superman...

Salam,

Very sorry for being late posting this entry. Banyak sangat hal yang mendatang almost every weekend (including spent time chatting, gossipping and cooking with my mum and other sisters).

This was from my sister's officemate. Anyway, thanks for the order ya...




Sempat bake satu cake yang resipinya i dapat dari baker Edina from http://adorablecupcakes.blogspot.com. Nama pun dah gerun. I pastekan sekali lagi resipi kart sini, so that mana2 bakers nak mencuba. Normally, I dont use to eat my own cake... But this time I couldn't resist and the taste..... Hmmmmmmm... I'm speechless! Hope you understand since I am a chocoholic! Thanks to Edina for sharing this great recepi. Kongsi2 lah lagi yer...

Devil's Food Chocolate Cake
1 cup all purpose flour (tepung gandum biasa)
1/4 cup cocoa powder
3/4 teaspoon bicarbonate soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
65 gram butter
1 large egg - size A
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/4 cup buttermilk (homemade: 1/4 cup milk added with a few drops of distilled vinegar (cuka biasa), leave to rest for about 20 minutes
1/2 cup warm water

Methods:
Set your oven at 170C (i set mine at 160C)
Prepare your cake tins, I used my casserole.
Sieve flour, cocoa powder, bicarbonate soda, salt, and set aside.
Beat butter with sugars until light and fluffy, add eggs.
When all well incorporated add the dry ingredients (flour, cocoa powder etc) and alternate with liquid ingredients (buttermilk + warm water) in three portions, last incorporate the vanilla extract.
Bake for about 30 minutes or until just cooked

Cream Cheese Frosting
250 g Philly cheese (i made only half-125g)
125 g butter (i use about 60g)
1 cup icing sugar (i used 1/2 cup)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
juice of a squeezed slice of lemon, to rid the cheese taste (i didnt put)

Beat the cheese and butter, just until creamy, add the icing sugar, vanilla and lemon juice.

Chocolate Ganache
200 ml double cream with at least 30% fat content
250 g dark chocolate, chopped finely
a pinch of salt

In a double boiler, warm the cream until just at boiling point, add the chocolate and salt and stir, when all chocolate is melted, remove from the heat and continue stirring until all well mixed.

Wait for the cake to cool completely, spread the cream cheese frosting and pour the ganache on top.

Ini lah hasilnyeerrrr... Sekarang ni pun terliur lagi niiiii....





At the mean time, ada masa sikit... Buatlah sample mini cake to favor request from friend. Alahai, mintak mahap la banyak2, tiba time nak tepek fondant, about 3.30a.m. siren (baby Qaseef) pun berbunyi. To my friend, will REDO the mini cake for you ya darling!!!!

Welcome aboard Amir Raufan

Congrates to my bff Puan Norazila Amir for her new born 2nd child... Amir Raufan...


Semasa membake all the sets ni, pewot lak terasa lapar. Hmm... ngap la beberapa biji cuppies balance Qayyiem (dia ni cukup suka makan kek). Lastly, bekalkanlah the remaining balance cuppies tu ke rumah ibu esoknya. Betul juga kata ibu tak sampai seminit tiba kat rumah ibu terus tanya...

Happy Birthday from Az....

Thanks to Az for the orders. Next time jangan serik untuk order ya.







Salam Sejahtera....

Lama sungguh tak membuat posting. Alhamdulillah berjumpa lagi sekali lagi kita di sini. Tak banyak juga posting yang tertunggak. Cuma sejak kebelakangan ini terpaksa mengambil cuti yang lama dari ketuhar atas sebab-sebab tertentu.

Di kesempatan ini juga saya mahu membuat sedikit pengumuman tentang kemudahan penghantaran yang terpaksa di gantung untuk sementara waktu. Oleh itu, mulai 1 Julai 2010, setiap tempahan bolehlah diambil sendiri oleh pelanggan di alamat-alamat yang telah diberitahu.

Sekian, terima kasih.
