December, You came too early

 hello girl,

drown your sorrow, eat more and more chocolate!

21 GUNS

Do you know what's worth fighting for?
When it's not worth dying for?
Does it take your breath away
And you feel yourself suffocating?

Does the pain weigh out the pride?
And you look for a place to hide?
Did someone break your heart inside?
You're in ruins

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I

When you're at the end of the road
And you lost all sense of control
And your thoughts have taken their toll
When your mind breaks the spirit of your soul

Your faith walks on broken glass
And the hangover doesn't pass
Nothing's ever built to last
You're in ruins

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I

Did you try to live on your own
When you burned down the house and home?
Did you stand too close to the fire
Like a liar looking for forgiveness from a stone?

When it's time to live and let die
And you can't get another try
Something inside this heart has died
You're in ruins

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky

One, 21 guns
Lay down your arms, give up the fight
One, 21 guns
Throw up your arms into the sky, you and I

I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles.

First Love - Adele

So little to say but so much time,

Despite my empty mouth the words are in my mind.
Please wear the face, the one where you smile,
Because you lighten up my heart when I start to cry.

Forgive me first love, but I'm tired.
I need to get away to feel again.
Try to understand why, don't get so close to change my mind.
Please wipe that look out of your eyes, it's bribing me to doubt myself;
Simply, it's tiring.

This love has dried up and stayed behind,
And if I stay I'll be alive,
Then choke on words I'd always hide.
Excuse me first love, but we're through.
I need to taste the kiss from someone knew.

Forgive me first love, but I'm too tired.
I'm bored to say the least and I, I lack desire.
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me,
Forgive me first love,
Forgive me first love

(ordered by salmy wateen, 12.2.12)

• chocolate cake, "she will always be my first love" sbb dialah first cake yang saya jual pada 2009 & alhamdulillah saya masih di sini ..

• why two way method? sbb masa tu pinjam oven org then tetiba pintu oven tu rosak so kek tak masak (walaupun sejam tunggu.. sedihh betul!) .. nasib baik akal panjang, terpaksala kukus pulak. tp masa tu takmo la down.. so instead of being honest kata pintu oven rosak & dgn niat nk motivate diri sendiri maka ckpla "two ways method" mmg seriously, hilang down.. hhe.. ". gosh! those days kan ;)

Wordless Wednesday : Life in Mono

Challenging Week

mmg seram sgt last week coz i have toooo many cakes to bake. cupcakes > 200 pcs, +-10 big cakes (normal order, engagement & wedding) .. sgt seriau sbb at the same time kene attend office, dept & vendor meeting..i was praying hard yg everyone in the house sihat2 so that i can concentrate & prepare mental to deliver cake ikut stended customer. since skang ni no more late nite baking (kol 12 wajib tdo! faktor umur baaaa, esok mau pi keje). so just imagine la bape byk je masa yg ada.. huk huk... last2 terpaksa tolak prinsip kejap & stay up until 1am.. pastu mmg dozed off teruih!


sometimes i feel like i'm trying too hard konon nk jadi cool & takmo pressure sbb bile pressure cake pun affected.. terpaksa buat2 tak tau n bake je tanpa pandang kanan kiri.. i hope i was strong enuff to face all this challenge sbb sabtu tu pagi2 nk kene zasss ke JB (2 days-wedding-vacation skali.. hehe) .. alhamdulillah, once u have this passion..walau tension camner pun, last2 happy ending jugak.. semangat sbb nk rehat puas2 kat jb. haih, takyah cite pressure la.. behind the scene tu biar saya rasa sorg2.



my blog reader, tgk gambar yg dj jadi je :p, enjoicee!!

my fav hantaran cake! tiramisu tp filling dia saya buat pekat + solid sikit..

her wedding cake, 9 inch tapi ada 3 layers.. choc ganache then choc buttercream. pekat likat! hehe

engagement cake.. white-sky-blue. alhamdulillah customer sukaa sgt. saya apatah lagi!

wedding gift! last minute bake utk neighbour & kawan kat jb.. sian kitorg dpt makan 2-3 biji je. err i'm loving it! (maybe sbb jarang dpt rasa psl mmg kalau buat tu sure abis, 2-3 org customer) .. last batch bake ni @12midnite (battery mmg dh drained abis.. tp alhamdulillah, rv tak meragam & super moist!)

ordered by new customer utk hubby yg baru balik belayar.. ni kali ke-3 dlm 2 minggu ni dpt order dari ahli pelayaran.. hehe..

order dari jauh, australia tu! hehe.. thanks zrett.. nnti one day ko balik kite p makan2 kay :)

cake wajib.. ok, ada masa lapang sy test blackforest cheese cake. sedapp pulak makan kt SR tadi!

*ok, minggu ni berehat sikit sbb light orders.. nk cover tdo n kemas rumah yg dh mcm kapal titanic.. huhuhu

Red White Wedding Cake

sejak berkecimpung dlm dunia baking ni, ku mmg sgt obses dgn strawbearry. seriously, i personally think strawberry ni mmg antara ciptaan Allah yang amat2 ku kagumi & sgt2hargai. when i feel sad, down atau rasa mcm loser (sometimes we may feel that way kan?) .. ku akan gigit strawberry and menghayati rasa dia yg masam manis tu..


my first cake, masa tu bake sesaja sbb kawan dtg beraya, aku garnish with strawberry. seriously, walaupun ku ni takla sexy pun (cam neelofa tu kann..), tp bile buat cake ada strawberry terus menerus tahap kesexyan memuncak.. haha.. ni bukan cite tipu.. ni cite BENARRR .. cuma time tu tak berani la nk beli strawberry mahal2.. beli yg paling murah je :)

my first cake, back to 2008..

why strawberry ? i love their colours.. merah menyala. takde control2 n selindung2.. i think one of the factor yg buat org senang ingat cake sbb byk strawberry.. another plus point? read this!
so mmg tepat la kan kenapa aku suka sgt strawberry? .. maka, start dari kejadian tu, bermula la misi menggoogle strawberry hari2.. smpai la one day, i got request from melbourne (this is one of my best memories) to deliver surprise cake.. masa ni, kak noreen give me chance buat free style.. so apa lagi, tu yg terus2 menzahirkan apa yg aku obseskan selama ni..alhamdulillah, my cake have been recognized by many people lepas upload gambar tu. syukur sbb dpt byk positive feedback. jgn tanya la betapa tingginya semangat aku masa tu.. hehe.. *poyo mode*.. .. syukur n happy :)

setelah hampir 3 tahun berlalu... i'm here still applying the same thing. if you asked me to make superb and bake like a pro, i'm surrender.. penah gak nk try fondant but till this date, i didn't absorbed that skill.. tambahan pulak, masa n keadaan belum mengizinkan.. maka, dudukla saya di takuk yang sama.. trying to expand skill within my limit...


last week, for the first time.. i make a real 2 tier wedding cakes.. before ni ada jugak buat tp with lack of knowledge sbb tak berani sgt.. i prefer cake + cupcakes sbb my weaknesses adalah fobia nk combine cake sbb takut runtuh. huhu.. but since request demi request nk jugak kek bertiang .. i think ada 3-4 request this month alone.. so takde alasan, ni la masa nk challenge myself. again, not superb one.. but i'm loving it sbb cuak n pening dok mikir takut kek ni jatuh.. oh yes, kali ni not chocolate cake (chocolate cake is more stable n structural..) but.. THE ONE AND ONLY RED VELVET Cake.. double challenge sbb red velvet ni ku guna 4 layers utk bottom cake and 3 layers for top cake.. tdo tak lena sbb masa frosting tu mcm, aduii... fragile nya cake ni. but nothing impossible, kalau kene cara insyaallah pasti berjaya *ahaks*



masa study tu, ada baca .. buat cake ni umpama membina bangunan.. kalau kuat structure dalaman, maka kuatlah luaran .. masa frosting tu terasa mcm bancuh simen pulak.. hhee.. but i've learn from mistake, kene sabar n jgn terburu2.. so i frost layer by layer.. bg dlm kuat, chill it.. then baru buh tiang.. lepas buh tiang chill lagi... for this cake alone, i took 2 hours nk buat basketwave .. sbb the main actress ialah strawberry tu yg rasa basketwave is the most matching pair. glad masa borak2 dgn cpm yg manis ni, she let me do on my own way janji cantik n sedap.. love u girl! my mind tak block pun and idea lajuu je.. but one thing for sure, aku kan jenis cuak.. maka camner simple pun cake sure cuak tu tak ilang.. innocent baker, remember? :P

ni masa first time dia order, april 2010

all in all, i've compeleted this task @1am++ .. tdo, bgn @630am smbung potong strawberry pulak.. ni dh byk kali kene, so aku sure ingat smpai bila2.. put strawberry just before customer nk amik cake.. fresh & more stunning nnti, insyaallah... when she came, alhamdulillah semua dh ready.. , *she's tall! sweet! and skinny!!* .. dah dua kali jumpa, cake punya pasal.. thanks babe for your supportive words and seriously enjoy buat cake ni.. hopefully one day, i'll make a better cake within my "limit" .. till then, enjoy this cake and i will surely enjoy myself while i'm away ( for one week!). take a good care semua!
