Snow Flakes Cupcakes for Christmas



This is a backdated post.... I have not been feeling very well lately and thus have procrastinated this upload. These vanilla cupcakes were baked and decorated with icy snowflakes for the Christmas family gathering I had at my house last week.

I had plans for lots of baking during this festive season, but since I have not been feeling so well lately, I have to push back some of the baking projects I have in mind. Hopefully I will feel more upbeat and energetic very soon... as Julian's birthday and Chinese New Year are just round the corner!!!

Christmas Cookies




Julian is having a christmas party in school tomorrow. I baked these cookies for him to bring to the party. These are chocolate cookies decorated with fondant and royal icing, in the festive theme off course.

I am back...



Sorry for the long absence.... I have not been baking because I was away on a family vacation in Western Australia. Visited the Margaret River region. I did not have much time to shop, but when I did get a chance to enter any homeware stores... my eyes would be darting around, hunting for baking wares! My aim was to look for items that are uncommon in my home land... and yes, I did managed to find a few things. I will be baking again very soon.... eager to try out the vanilla bean dusting sugar!
