Chocolate cupcakes with choc lava filling and white vanilla buttercream frosting for
Drama Mama and hubby.
It was an SOS call late one evening from Bai, who would be celebrating her wedding anniversary the next day.
Well Bai, you were this close to sounding like a Desperate Housewife, you know. That's why I didn't have the heart to say no to her request. Although she initially asked for buttercream roses (a technique of which I've yet to master - shame on me), I have to replace that request with these red gum paste flowers I got from a nearby bakery supplies shop when at the last minute, my red butter cream couldn't really hold it's shape well. The second batch of buttercream I made didn't turn out the exact shade that I want, so scrap it. Store-bought gum paste roses to the rescue!
Delivering the cupcakes to her home high up on the hills in Sg. Ara was a different adventure altogether. Well, as the saying goes, you'll never get lost in the streets of Penang.
A good thing none-the-less, coz I've always wanted to meet the pretty Drama Mama and her son Irfan. Akhirnya, sampai jugak hasrat, walaupun sekejap cuma. Eceh!
Happy 3rd Anniversary to Bai & Amin, and of coz the little cheeky Irfan too :) Thank you so much for the order. Next time ada pasai nak order jangan lupa calling-calling Anne ok?
p/s: Oh yeah, Bai is the founder of
Twinky Winky Stars. Check out her blog to see her excellent creations.
