This is my first attempt at Wonky cake and trust me when I say it's a sweaty work! Hahahahaha... It's not easy to construct the Wonky part.. gotta have some calculation done and architect experience to make sure the cake dont topple or break. Anyway, it was a very very good experience and I am glad I made it. Hahahahaha.. the cake didnt toppled or break or slant or fell off and the birthday girl was simply thrilled to bits when she saw her cake.

This chocolate butter cake weigh in at 3.8kg was to serve 120 guests and was sold for RM400. For the 7 hours of work, I must say it's cheap!

My friend wanted something different...With a bad throat and cough, she wanted something light and refreshing and I come up with this! Hehehe.. I just wanted an excuse to create... and she gave me the perfect excuse! So, with some yogurt, some fresh strawberries, I made this chiffon cake..

The taste is fab!! For one, it has yogurt.. so, it was something very appetizing.. for another, it has strawberries... Frankly, I think the US strawberries will be nicer for this cake as it will add a more vibrant and fragrant aroma to the cake... but unfortunately, all there is in season now are korean strawberries.. and I find them not suitable for cake.. anyway, thank god this turned good.... hehehehehe..

So, my dear friend with a bad throat and cough had her treat... a very refreshing treat! hehehehe...

Hahahahhaa!! Bouffant Chiffon! Chiffon cakes always remind me of Bouffant.. that puffed up hairstyle that took the world by storm in the 50s.. I secretly think people during that era just love everything puffed up and big! Hehehehe..

Anyway, I made 2 different flavors for my Bouffant Chiffon cake adventure.. I made the very simple Orange flavor but with a twist! I added cloves into it and you will never guess that there is cloves in it. However, the bit of cloves that I added enhanced the orange very well.. it make the orange smell and taste so addictive! I know, I know, orange flavor is orange flavor.. but you gotta try this to know.. mine has a sharp tangy flavor to it because that's the way I like it.. I dont like my cake just sweet. If I want it just sweet, I will just scoop a spoonful of sugar and eat! Flavors have to have its uniqueness.. as in orange, it is never just sweet.. it's sourish, it's tart and sharp that blends and make the sweet taste more pronounced. Ya, it is like a love hate relationship... and that's how I like my orange flavor to be and that's how my spice Orange Bouffant Chiffon taste like...

The Rose.. Hmm... "Rose, Rose, I love you..." I had that song ringing in my head when I was making the Rose Chiffon.. Basically, this is a very pretty looking cake.. Ok.. again! my photography skill leave much to be desired and my monster did something to the camera.. I dont know what but I must find out.. because all the photos I took, the object looked like it had a shock!! Too much exposure I think.. or something along that line! Anyway, back to my Rose Rose I love chiffon cake.. well, it is a pretty cake with a very pleasing smell.. smell like rose.. smell like love.. smell like garden.. smell like everything I like.. of course, I didnt add too much rose flavor into it.. I am always very cautious with essences and flavoring.. a tiny bit too much and the whole cake/cooking is going to end up tasting and smelling like some factory! Wahahaha..

Anyway, I will be trying out a few more different flavors soon.. so, stay tune and see what I am able to come up with... Hehehehee....
