Hello. It's been pretty long since i've posted a proper one.
Anyway, it was Vanessa's birthday last wednesday. I decided to bake her a cake covered with fondant and i settled for a strawberry chocolate fudge cake. It turned out not only looking like a princess cake (like what she wanted), but it also tasted fabbb.2 days of hard work doing this cake wasn't gone in vain since she really liked the cake huh hehh:)I've never tried making a fondant cake before and moreover it's for van's birthday. So i was really hoping that it would turn out well. Only tried making fondant cupcakes last year which was quite successful as well.and i was thinking..why not a fondant cake? hm. Truth be told, i don't really like to eat fondant . It's made out of marshmellows and icing sugar but this time round it tasted prettty ok. Quite satisfied actually. And when i say hard work, it was really HARD WORK. I was stressing out on the night before her birthday because i wasn't satisfied with how the fondant texture was on the cake and i was sooooo pissed. but it turned out alright ,thank God:) from melting marshmellows, to rolling out and colouring the fondant, to baking the cake, to cutting strawberries,to making the fudge yadahhhhhh. Not bad for a first timer huh. Okay, actually my maid did help abit. (But i told her to help me as little as possible. she did most of the washing haha)
So, i gatecrashed and trespassed into school on Wed afternoon to celebrate her bday with my secondary school classmates and they loved the cake:) Anyway i got the candles from spotlight on monday night. really pretty right. and i spent almost my entire monthly pocketmoney on her little present. Got her a helium balloon, Paulfrank lipsmackers and Chanel lipgloss. gah that small little thing cost me a bomb hahaha:( but it's worth it since she loves em.
Hm i wouldn't want to bake another cake for the coming months.it's so tiring.
Alright till i post again. (i doubt anyone reads this blog anyway.it's just for memories i believe)
p/s: Gonna watch the movies i rented today, be a couch potato while i dig into my tub of yamiyogurt. let's indulge.
