Wassants are one of my favourite bread. These little buns are perfect for snacking! Made these babies a while back. They were a hit when Provence bakery started selling them.  Soon enough, these little pillows started surfacing in many bakeries here. Every bakery has its own unique wassants.

Back in 2015, my family and I went to Hong Kong for a short holiday. I did not realise that it has been five years until I actually typed it out. As it was my nephew's first overseas trip, we were worried that he would go hungry before meal times. So, we decided to buy some bread from...

I have been thinking about brown butter since the last time I used it for the miso chocolate chip cookies. It has a nutty flavor and the aroma is simply out of the world.

Glad that circuit breaker is coming to an end. The last two months whizzed past quickly as I have been spending every weekend baking and cooking away.

While I am saddened by the fact that we can't dine outside during this period, the circuit breaker enables me to reconnect with my favourite past time activity at home again! Never found the opportunity to spend so much time in the kitchen especially after I have started working. The one thing I miss the most during this...

Although I only managed to succeed after three attempts, this is by far the best Gula Melaka Chiffon Cake I have tried and I will bake it again and again....

Scrolling the endless number of food posts on my Instagram feed gave me the sudden urge to bake again. Hence, I decided to dedicate one of the evenings after work to bake. It has been a long time since I last baked and I certainly should keep the momentum going after this round! Decided to start with something...

Wrapping up 2017 with my last overseas trip of the year - Melbourne. It was my first visit to Melbourne and it was nothing short of amazing. Even though it was supposed to be summer in Australia, the weather was rather chilly while we were there. Apart from Melbourne city, we spent half a day at St. Kilda,...

Jet off to Taipei in June.  Time flies and I have no idea where the past month has gone. I was there for a week and it was truly a well deserving break for both of us after several months of hectic work schedule. On this trip, we explored Taipei and stayed one night at Nantou - Cing...
