The year of the rabbit is coming to an end... and what an ending it was!! I was super busy at work, my daughter is leaving for her holiday and my baking business took off unexpectedly! Do you call this ending with a Bang! ?? Hehehehe..
It's not easy to work and do business part time. All the unexpected datelines, problems do creep up at the most inappropriate timing..and all the helter skelter can kill creativity!! Hahahaha... Anyway, that is my work which has gone crazy and that left me with very little time to work on my orders. Hence, this year, nothing new was created... the usual Jam tarts, kueh bangkit and layer cake. The additional cookie I made this year is orange cranberry cookies and a simple shortbread that melts in the mouth. That has created my business to go sky high! Woo hooo...
The orange cranberry cookie started out as a special request from a friend who loves this cookie. But her order keep increasing.. and increasing and increasing.. Hahahahahahaha.. she is such a kind lady who simply wanted everyone she knows to enjoy this cookie. Her comment about this cookie is that it is simply fab! Not too sweet.. very fragrant (the orange peel).. crispy and melts in the mouth texture and the little bits of cranberry is simply fantastic.
As for the shortbread.. that was something I have always wanted to try... a very crispy and melt in the mouth cookie. I should have made it in a few different flavours..sigh.. work does that to me.. make me forget about everything else except my work and datelines. Hahahahaha...
Anyway, Chinese New Year season has never been a hectic time for me as I rarely concentrate on cookies, a manpower issue but this year, was exceptional. Business bloom and blossomed! haahahahaahaha.. so, after work, when I got home, is start work immediately.. making my cookies and tart. Thank the almighty for my aunt and cousin who came by to help me out and I got all my orders out in time...Thank you KP and Lengyi!!!
So, before I forget... GONG XI FA CAI!!! The new year will bring in the dragon... May the Dragon fire up your passion, good fortune, happiness and good health..
Gong Xi! Gong Xi! Gong Xi!
