Pavlova with vanilla cream topped with kiwi/strawberry/peach

I havent bake pavlova in such a long time and I almost lost the soft-skill in making this delicious, mouth watering dessert. I have always loved this when it's chilled..and with the complimentary of the fruits..i often lie to my self to feel less guilty, that i am indulging into a fruit salad only..kekeke..i'd happily savor till the last bits.

TQSM Aida as always!!! I do hope everything was to your likings :)

While stacking the fruits and dolloping the cream..i felt like cutting them and have them for my self..grr..will be making this precious for my self soon!!







Ordered by Aida too,  oreo brownies..again TQ!! Sorry on the glare of the photo..I simply forgotten to take picture before i close the plastic cover..here is all we have..


Well one of my early bird delivery was below moist chocolate cake for Saidatul..My hubby sent the cake at 7am at Petronas BJ and by 10am Saidatul request for more chocolate cake as the earlier cake was instantly gone.. And sorry for not be able to whisk you another cake.

This is for now all.. take care..and TQ!!

Luxemburgerli the Swiss Macaron

No bakes today..but I'd like to share with all my recent experience of a Swiss Macaron. Since I've been seriously involve in baking..it's always a pleasure to taste other's delicacies..

Literally..I've known that there are 3 types of macaron around..these macarons differed by the method used to bake the shells. It was also known that the French and Italian macarons almost the same in taste and texture. However, contrary to the Swiss Macarons which is also called as the Luxemburgerli..

I was over the moon as hubby brought home 2 boxes of these babies back..

By my personal experience..I came to like these Swiss macs..they are less sweet..the shells are with a dome shape..soft/fluffy in the inside with crunchy on the outer shells. The filling was to DIE for!!!!! It's creamy..light..less sweet..& rich in flavor!! Owhhhhh my sugar level sure have increase tremendously!! Bad thing only you cant leave them for too long within our climate..the cream filling tends to soften. And not to forget that their size are petite..slightly smaller to our 20 cent coin.

A box of Bachman's..


A box of Sprungli.. the founder of luxemburgerli.


Neat and exclusive packaging. 


My babies.. from left based on my taste buds; dark chocolate, rasberry, salty caramel, lemon, chocolate, vanilla, hazelnut & green tea..


Will sure be getting these again!!!

I personally lovessss Sprungli's better compared to Bachmann's ..reason being ..Sprungli simply yield stronger flavor..a bite will blow you far to Swiss ..hehehe..

I tried browsing for the recipe of the shell over the net with zero result!! Could it be a real top secret?
I'll try again and share if I managed to get them :)

Have a sweet week ahead all!!

It was a terribly longgg.. week for me as my other half was away for work. Though mingling with kids+house+cake kept me all occupied, yet still there's a missing void somewhere..he'll be back tonite yeaaa...

Niza ordered 300 pcs of oreo brownies for her brother's wedding reception..but I had to push away the order to my sis (who is a baker too) since I cant cope it as hubby was not around to watch the kids..  My baby simply cant let go of me!! I had to carry him with 1 hand while cooking or else..he'll throw a LOUD tantrum!! My sis baked them all and I just cut these delicious bars in pieces and drizzled away with chocolate as well as gold sprinkles on top. TQ Niza..and sorry for any imperfections yer..


On the same day..I managed to whisk away this congo bars for Aida as I had postponed her order last week due to my sickness.. TQ Aida!!

Hmmm...my birthday celebrations when I was young was eating out in KFC or Marry Brown..how lucky kids now days. Parents are instilling sweet memories in birthday cakes for their loved ones..

TQSM Kak Azah..hope Aqila loves the cake!!!





While waiting for the cheese to soften..me and the girls quickly whisked away chocolate fudge brownies..half part was sprinkled with chocolate chips, while the other half with pecans on top.. To ensure every one was satisfied..the chocolate craze..the nut craze..hehehehe.. I am the nut craze!!
