4th July Cupcakes.
4th July.
This is the day of the St Teresa School's Food and Fun Fair.
The day before, a few friends and I skipped school to bake like we've never baked before.
These are some of the cupcakes we made the day before:-
Chocolate cupcakes with vanilla buttercream and a fondant shape with sprinkles.
Vanilla cupcakes with vanilla buttercream and a fondant shape with sprinkles.
Chocolate and vanilla cupcakes.
Chocolate cupcakes with fluffy white icing and a red fondant heart!
Vanilla cupcakes with fluffy white icing and a red fondant heart!
Cupcakes with fluffy white icing. This was before we dusted it with colourful sugar sprinkles.
Cupcakes with buttercream and fondant shapes.
Colourful buttercream cupcakes!
We dusted these colourful buttercream cupcakes with cocoa powder.
We cut out shaped on transparent plastic paper and sieved the cocoa powder on top. We spent the whole day before cutting out these shaped. We ended up with about 30 different designs.
We also made some chocolate buttercream but I didn't manage to take nice pictures of them.
I also didn't take any pictures from the Food and Fun Fair itself as I was pretty busy. I'm also too lazy to talk about what happened that day so I guess I'll end this post here.

Father's Day!
Today, for Father's Day, I made Devil's Food Cake. For my dad. No DUH. Well, Devil's Food Cake is actually just a chocolate cake with a hint of citrus. I think.
Well, in my Devil's Food Cake, I used a chocolate base, and topped it off with some citrus flavoured white icing and a dusting of orange peel.
Tada! The finished product!
Yum Yum!
It's Perfect.
Orange... *drool*
I'm so proud of myself!
Actually, I haven't tasted it yet. So I wouldn't actually know if it tasted like a slice of Heaven. But at least it looks like a slice of Heaven!
For Mother's Day, I actually baked her some Chocolate Blueberry Muffins. Which did taste like a muffin sent from God.
But I forgot to take pictures. Oops!
Well, I'll try to update soon.
Toodles!!

Monday Cupcakes.
Yes! It is Saturday. and, Yes! I am late in posting again. But at least I'm doing it.
Well, I have been really busy lately. In this week, I have had mountains of homework thus causing me to be super tired and resulting in me sleeping like a rock. Even during class...
Once, after coming home from Math tuition, I fell asleep. It was 5.30 p.m. at the time. Then, I woke up at 5.30 a.m. I was so screwed. I didn't do any of my homework and might I remind you that I had mountains of it at the time.
I arrived in school early that day. As soon as my butt touched the chair, I started writing like nobody's business. School lasts for about 6 hours a day. I was writing non-stop for about 5 hours of it. Even through break.
I felt like such an idiot. I've never written so much in my life before. I felt as if my arm was going to break off. Never in my life had I wished I could write with both hands so badly before.
Well, at least there's a happy ending to the story. I managed to finish almost all my leftover homework and managed to pass up all the ones I needed by that day. I felt so relieved! *sigh*
Well... onto the cupcakes!!
We are having pre-sales in school to earn money for our actual food and fun fair sale. Please come to support us by the way... So Monday was our turn to contribute. We have been doing this for the past 3 or 4 months now.
I apologize for never posting it up due to my lazy-ness. Well...
We made cupcakes for Monday's pre-sale. Duh. They were chocolate based cupcakes with vanilla-mint buttercream or coffee-chocolate buttercream.
Here are some pictures. Aside from that I really have nothing else to say other than we sold them all.
Yay! Looks good. Even now.
Black and white!
Cupcakes!
Coffee-chocolate buttercream
Perfect and good-looking
Yay! So I guess I'm done for now. Pray I don't go missing for too long! Bye~

My Unupdated Baking
Hello everyone! Aren't you all happy that I'm finally updating? Well, I'm actually still pretty lazy to update. I'm just going to post up a few pictures of my recent bakings. If you call the begining of the year recent. I know I haven't updated at all recently, and you can't blame me. I've just found other things to do!
Also, I just recently got back from my trip to Perth. When I get them, and I'm hardworking enough, I'll post up the pctures here.
These aren't all of the things I've made up till now. I didn't manage to take any new photoes of my new creations so I guess I'll settle with these:-
Homemade pasta!
Took us forever to finish.
The finished product - Came out looking like 'kueh tiaw' though
I also made coconut cherry cupcakes with the leftover cherries. Fresh cherries.
Yummy!
More cuppy cakes!
Aside from that, I also made a chocolate orange cake for my mum when she had her friends over to gamble.
White chocolate shavings to decorate.
It was pretty big but easy to finish!
I made blondies as well. Cinamon and chashew blondies.
Blondies with a dusting of icing sugar.
Recently, I've also been experimenting with new cupcakes and cookies. It's unfortunate I was lazy to take pictures at the time. I've also made chocolate brownies and lemon bars. I also made chocolate cake slices and banana chocolate chip muffins for teachers day.
Well, that should be it for now. Happy I updated? I am!
