We have collected a modest sum for our Cupcake for Charity drive and the effort will continue as long as the cause needs our support. As promised, the donation goes to Dewanita Pulau Pinang who will manage the donations for Pusat PDK Permatang Damar Laut.

THE ART OF TARTS

The Tarts (Lewis Carroll)
The Queen of Hearts, she made some tarts,
All on a summer day:
The Knave of Hearts, he stole those tarts,
And took them quite away!















These tarts were made for customers during the last week of Ramadhan, mostly hubby's teacher friends who took these back to their respective hometowns for the holidays




















Available flavours: Strawberry, mango, blueberry & kiwi. RM 20 per pack of 40s.















Much thanks to Bai the Drama Mama, Cikgu Saadah, Sir Naresh & En. Badrul :D

I hope your families enjoyed the sweet tarts!

SU KE SHAN'S FULL MOON

My most challenging project to date. For the Chan's latest addition to the family, little Su Ke Shan. Doesn't she have the prettiest name, you think?



















Chocolate mocha cuppies


















Vanilla peach cuppies


















The full moon package, all 35 packs of them. The red eggs were Chan's request and I obliged since it wasn't that difficult to boil eggs & dye them red. Or so I thought *chuckles*


Thank you so much to the Chans for the wonderful opportunity and the lovely compliments.

HUZAIFAH & HARZIANA

Uploading the last of my raya pics is an atrocious task, but upload I still must.

These are the orders I made for Baizura's cousin, Anom who is sponsoring one bekas hantaran for Bai's brother who was getting engaged on the 3rd day of raya.

Frankly, I'm all out of steam while finishing these cuppies. Jiwa tengah meruntun sangat. Sedih, pedih, pilu...




Cuppies flavours were carrot walnut & rosewater pistachio. I made some extras and they are superbly yummy. My fussy eater hubby commented that the rosewater pistachio tasted like an Indian dessert. Hah, dah rasa baru tau...

To Anom & Bai, thank you soooo much for the trust.


*Edited: Anom just sent me a pic of the two newly-engaged. I can't resist sharing it on this blog coz I really, really think Harziana looks like Umie Aida in here!

Congratulations, you two!

GRACEFUL VINES

I have loads of photos I haven't shared, and I'm still feeling 'bleaaarrgghhh' coz once uploaded to blogger, the photo quality become horrible. Dahlah memang horrible in the first place.

This is the best shot I got from Wina's 'Graceful Vines', delivered on the second day of Eid. We were both stuck in the dreadful & infamous Penang Bridge jam that afternoon. Although I managed to avoid the bridge and headed to the ferry instead, the jam at the terminal was even worse!

We were both late for the her cousin's engagement ceremony. The cuppies didn't make it to the dulang hantaran (I think) - but at least they were enjoyed by the whole family.

Of course, in every dark cloud there is a silver lining. The good thing that came out from that terrible experience was being able to meet the lovable Wina & family. I even met my uni lecturer who is Wina's aunt.







A mix of 'Princess of Persia' (rosewater & pistachio) and 'Red Riding Hood' (red velvet). Thank you so much Wina for the generous order.

SILVER TEAL

I know for sure that I couldn't afford another last minute order, but how can you say no to Diyana, the famous mommy blogger slash retired Drama Queen whose last words were still ringing in my ears till now, "Eh, orang meniaga mana boleh raya!" in response to my whiny protests.

Huhuhu, jokes aside and my inability to resist her charms (hehheh), I took it as a challenge. All she needed was a simple sweetcase (minus the sweets) and I'd squeeze in 8 pieces of cuppies for her from my existing confirmed orders.

Things were very kancheong indeed since my family held a small kenduri for the kampung folk at my Tok's home and everyone was occupied, but the cuppies were safely delivered and picked up on the very morning of Diyana's SIL's engagement ceremony, with the help of my brother.

















Red velvet in silver and teal. Coincidentally, silver teal is a breed of ducks commonly found in South America. Huh.

Muchas gracias, Diyana! Ooh, all of the sudden I'm berfeeling mexicano :)
