Foodelicious!

Did I say that this bag of lime that was sitting on my kitchen top snickered at me?? Hehehe.. I must be going bonkers! Anyway, have always wanted to make Lime curd.. I always make lemon curd but never really got my ass up to make lime curd... sigh.. lazy masy la.. what else! Anyway, since the lime sitting on my kitchen top was snickering at me.. daring me to bash and whack them up, I took on the challenge!! Heh! heh! heh!... and made something easy.. The hard part was to whack, bash and squeeze these limes.... Hard buggers.. so hard to draw out their juice..

So, with some egg yolks, a cup of sugar, lots of lime juice, freshly squeeze mind you!, a big tablespoon of lime zest and a generous dollop or two of rich butter and some slaving on the stove later on, I have this really really awesome wicked lime curd.

It's smooth and velvety, giving a luxurious feel that contrast sharply with the full flavor and aroma of lime that is tangy and zesty! And a right balance of sweetness simply completes the whole wicked taste.. making it addictive..igniting a love hate, storm and calm, sharp and mellow feel in you.

This is really good with toast.. with pastry.. with cheesecake.. with cakes.. with macaroons.. oh god!! it is good on its own!! what am I talking about.... Aaaaaaahhh... I am a creator of wicked things! Wahahahahahahaa!!!

Look out for this in my upcoming creations... heh! heh! heh!....wickness is life's little pleasure...

I love the color green!! Do you? What is your favorite color??

I have always found green to be a very pleasing color.. maybe that's the reason why I always like nature.. my house must always have a garden, no matter how small it is.. there must be grass in my garden, there must lots of green in all sorts of different shades in my garden.. Green just make me really happy!! Even when I am sad, the color green never fail to lift up my spirit.. never fail to give me hope... Hehehehe... Green is my color of happiness...

So, when I was commissioned to make a batch of french macaroons for my customer who wanted them as gifts to a new mama who is in confinement, I boldly made them in green... hehehe.... I substituted the usual ground almonds with pistachios..(yes, I have to blend them up a few times to get that powder fine texture) for these macaroons and used a rich and velvety chocolate ganache for the filling.. The new mama is so going to feel pampered and special.. hehehe..

These were sold for RM4.00 each with a minimum of 20 pieces......

These are twister cuppies too! People seems to prefer this compared to the plain ones these days.. Hmmm.. These are with lemon curd and again, these are sold for RM6.. The design is a swirl with lilac flower.. pretty!!

Hehehehehe... this is cute!! Well, how do you pacify 2 gender who celebrate their birthdays together? The girl wanted something sweet and pretty while the boy, boy being boy, wanted something boy... Hehehe.. so, the pretty owl sitting on a branch made the girl with big round eyes go.."OOOO... so pretty".. she was most delighted! And the boy... eager to see what's his design... popped his eye under his sister and went.."YESSS!!! racing cars!! My style!!" Hahahaa.. Life must be great to have a pair of twin... boy and girl twin..

These cuppies are twister cuppies with lemon curd. The kids seem to love lemon curd for some reason. The mama called later to tell me that the party was a success and all the kids whacked up the cuppies.... some having more than 2!! Each of these cuppies are sold at RM6.

Hahahahahahaa!!!! I was commissioned to do this cake by my monster. She wanted to give my uncle a birthday present but didnt quite know what to get, so, she sms me from the shop and said.."Let's collaborate on a cake!"... Hehehehe.. and she got all my uncle's favorite things correct.. James Bond, Oldies songs, books, old movies...

I decided on a book as it was the easiest to shape in a short time. However, given the fact that the weather was and still is blazing hot and bright, working with fondant was a pain!! It was hard to shape the fondant as it hardens fast and even if you managed to get the fondant to shape up, it some how crack up.. Hmm... so, at the end, I had to move everything to somewhere cool in the house....

This cake is a marbled butter cake... the family's favorite.. and the mystery of the kepohs was my idea! Hehehehe.. this cake weigh in at 2kg and if I were to sell this, it will be RM220.

Bear Hugs... 2 bears hugging each other in hibernation.... This reminds me of how a couple should always sleep... hugging each other..

Hehehehe.. Huggies Froggy! This is so cute!! Isnt this what love is all about.. stuck on a lilipad with someone who is always there for you.. hugging and weathering the storm... Ahhh..

With this ring... one shall be wed.. for better or worse, in sickness and in health.. for richer (oh yes!!) or poorer (err....) Hehhee.. yes, it is the power of lurve that sees each couple thru...

Hunny Bunnies.. Just like the bunnies, lots of patience, lots of laughter and ahem! lots of sex is what makes marriage happy and lasting..

I enjoyed making this set of Fairy Tale Weddings.... these cuppies are twister cuppies with some lemon curd filling and some in strawberry compote filling. Each cuppies were sold at RM6 each.

p/s The ring bearer came along with his mama to collect this set of cuppies for his uncle's wedding... and his remark was.."WAHHHHH...... so pretty!! I must guard them and later eat them" Hehehehee.....
