Raspeberry Mousse


Just had a go at plated desert today! :) Just sticking to the simple basics and this post chronicles on what began as a white plate...to a well erm...filled one? :D!

Luckily managed to get some help from my chefs and some of my friends :P! Enjoy yo~

So let's start with a clean plate *duh* :D


Next, we have our sauce. Just pull it anyway you want.


Then, the mousse goes on top! * gentle *


Get a nice curved chocolate deco and place it with the raspberries. ( Forgive this obscene picture )


Add the chocolate dipped strawberry at the corner! Tada!


With some final touch ups . . . regards to the chef and my friends :)

Chocolate Confections



Scroll down for more! :)!


Well it's been a busy few weeks lately so could not upload any stufffzz lately :)! but i had a great opportunity to get my nifty hands on some chocolate lessons! - proved to be one awesome lesson!


Let's start of with a brief introduction. Since we were all toddlers, from the very first moment we could get our teeth on those lovely chocolate bars and candies..we were craving them ever since.



After brushing them with some colour-ed edible dust! :D


The close up . . . ( the shine....*_* )


From that crisp and lovely snap the moment we tear that lovely bar of chocolate apart like hounds feeding on their prey after months of starvation, to that very bittersweet end that melts down our mouth and that orgasmic sensation that lingers to the very bottom of our tummy! We all crave chocolate ( well most of us! heh :D )


So I had the chance to make myself some! From a decent and fairly good quality chocolate and not those store bought chocolate blocks which promote cancer! Yes, they have some vegetable fats which I believe to be hydrogenated fat ( CANCER-OUS I TELL YOU! ).





Anyways enough with my grandma stories and feast your eyes on these :)!


Some Belgian Chocolate Shells :)


CHOCOLATE BAR!! RAWRRRR!


During my last few days . . .

*glosssssyyyyy*



PS : I just realised too much chocolate can make you nose bleed LOL! - It happened...twice -__-"

Types of chocolate were Eggnog Ganache and Star Anise Ganache.

Strawberry Bavarois




How can anyone resist that tantalizing scarlet berry! As it mocks you behind those green leaves waiting for you to sink your teeth into a succulent sweet ( well not so sweet here in Malaysia ) juices! Ah..talk about orgasmic mouth sensations!

Well unfortunately the strawberry jams we get here are 99% sugar and 1% real strawberry *sighs*..anyhow..how can one resist that seductive red glow! I mean it looks good on lingerie..it has to look good on cakes as well right? :D

Ahah! anyways..enjoy a little something I came up with :)!


Notice the sad sad leaves on the strawberries :( ..it's hard to find nice ones these days lol


Well time to bite into my pudding like cake ;)! enjoy!

Chocolate Macarons



Ah..had another go at the macs! Looking pretty dandy this time around :)! Had the idea of brushing the macs with a little coffee *nescafe cough cough* from mytartlette.com ( one of the prettiest macs i've seen around! ) ahahah! so wanted to give it a go and daaaaaaaaaaaaaammm they look stunning! thumbs up tartlette! :)!

So here we have the little brush trick that works all the time :) A swipe on the plate to test the consistency and off we go!

Before we knew it...we had a plate full of it LOL!


Looks pretty tempting yea don't ya think? :)

Well that aside..i was a little bored and decided to try something different by being a bit daring with the shells!

Slice almonds on the top with the pretty baby blue is kinda cute! LOL! The filling looks like a tongue from this angle -_-"

The leaning tower of macs! No need go Paris already :D

Well before heading back, I decided to pack some :P


The one at the far end looks like green oreo! LOL


Ah well hope that wraps it up! Gotta get more going soon! phew~
