About this Cook
My favorite things to cook
Mostly baked goods. I looove to bake. I can't go a day without thinking what to bake next!
My cooking triumphs
I recently learned how to bake on my own. No baking classes, just the internet. And somehow I succeeded in baking: blueberry cheesecake Sponge cake Quick breads e.g. apple bread, banana bread, pumpkin bread etc. I'm still learning and hopefully I'd learn to make ganache and fondant someday!
My cooking tragedies
I tried making chinese steamed cake. Gosh, that was bad. My so-called "cake" was flat, and rubbery. Everything a cake isn't. And I always consider my chocolate cakes as disasters because I haven't pinpoint the very reason that's causing my cakes to crack (what can I say, I'm a perfectionist!)

Cinnamon Carrot Bread
After reading all the reviews, I reduced the flour to 1 and a 1/2 cup, increased the carrots to 1 and 1/2 cups. Also, I realized that the batter was a tad dry, so I added 1 tbsp and 1 tsp of milk to moisten it. I baked it around 30 mins, and it was baked just right!

Pumpkin Muffins II
This was just beautiful! I made it into a loaf, and substitute the oil with butter since I do not like the smell and taste of oil (I creamed the butter), and they were soo fragrant and delicious! I will definitely be keeping this one! Thanks!

Apple Nut Bread
I love this recipe! I'm always making apple quick breads but this is the first time I used grated apples and they were great! I did not put in the nuts and I added more apple and baked them for 40 mins.. they were perfect. Thank you!
