Even though I don’t celebrate Halloween, I wanted to create something fun for this day. Since I didn’t have time to go to a baking shop to grab new supplies, I baked a Mocha Cake and decorate it Halloween style!

Baileys Chocolate Cake with Sour Cream Chocolate Frosting
Hello everyone! (And hello blog! Sorry for neglecting you for quite some time!) Taking step-by-step photos in the kitchen these days is getting a bit difficult because the driver for the LED lights that lit up my countertop exploded blew recently. Not to mention my camera’s a little cranky too – it’s not able to…
Coffee Cheesecake with Chocolate Ganache
It’s been more than a year since I last posted a cheesecake recipe here! The reason why I seldom bake cheesecakes these days is because there’s a bit of planning involved – and I’m just not a planner person when it comes to cheesecakes. Whenever I have a craving for cheesecakes, I usually won’t have…
Egg White Cupcakes with Dark Chocolate Ganache Frosting
After my éclair-baking spree for the past two weeks, I find myself with leftover egg whites from making the pastry cream. So I turned to the books for a cake recipe to use up the egg whites and I stumbled upon Rose Levy Beranbaum’s White Velvet Butter Cake recipe. I adapted the recipe and turn them…

Happy National Chocolate Pudding Day (26 June)! To be honest, I have absolutely no idea who created this day – but I would really like to thank him or her for creating this day (and also the person who invented pudding) because I never, ever knew that chocolate pudding can be so easy to make,…
Triple Chocolate Éclairs
Today is National Chocolate Éclairs Day! So… Happy Chocolate Éclairs Day! I recently added the National Food Day (you can get it here!) calendar into my Google Calendar to motivate myself to bake/cook more new dishes and to revisit some of the old favourites that are in a dire need of a revamp (seeing some of the…
No-Mixer Double Chocolate Banana Cake / Bread
To me, banana is a holiday fruit. I only eat them when I go on holidays because it’s a quick source of energy and easy to bring along when we go on hikes. So when the grocer gave me some “free” bananas a few weeks back (before we went on a holiday), I started looking for…
Chocolate Granola
Chocolate lovers, you are in for a treat today! After finishing my peanut butter granola, I decided to play around with the granola recipe to make a chocolate version – imagine having chocolate for breakfast – it’s perhaps the best way to start the day! P.S. This is a scheduled post as I’m currently away on holiday! Thank you…
Cookie Dough Brownies
Ever thought of how brownies and cookies will taste together? Well, with these cookie dough brownies, you have the perfect marriage of buttery and crispy cookie with chocolatey and fudgy brownies. Served with cream or even better still – ice cream – and it’s hard not to fall in love with them!
Nigella’s Honey Chocolate Cake
I first blogged about this honey chocolate cake back in 2011 and I thought this would be a great chance to update this recipe with both clearer instructions and better photos as it fits the Little Thumbs Up theme this month – honey! I always have a jar of honey at home – besides mixing spoonfuls of it with…
Baileys Tiramisu Cake {Christmas Version}
I saw a chocolate Christmas Tree decoration on a white cake on Pinterest recently and I really wanted to try it out because it’s simple and so classy looking! But the problem is I cannot decide what cake to make. In the end I settled with my favourite cake – the Tiramisu Cake.
Halloween Graveyard Cupcakes
Growing up in Singapore, I noticed that Halloween is an event more for teens/adults than kids. We don’t see kids trotting down the streets in adorable “horror” costumes, knocking door-to-door saying “trick-or-treat!”, like what we often see in American movies. Instead, during the month of October, theme parks in Singapore will organise Halloween Horror Nights and hire actors/actresses…
Homemade “Oreos” Sans Filling
Are you a fan of Oreo? I’m not a super huge fan of them, but there will be times when I have occasional cravings for them. The small packages of 3 cookies make a great snack whenever my mouth is itching for a bite. And the weirdest thing is I like them without the cream, are…
Peanut Butter, Oatmeal & Chocolate Chip Cookies
Cookies are one of my favourite snacks – they are small, cute, and feel a lot less sinful when eating one of them as compared to eating a cake. The unbaked cookie dough can also be easily frozen, so I love to freeze some whenever I make cookies and save them for a rainy day. (Figuratively,…
Fresh Mint Chocolate Chip Cookies
My mint plant had suffered a heat stroke while I was away on holiday in Denmark (the auto-watering system failed to auto water the plant), I’m not sure if it will revive but I’m glad I used some of the mint leaves and baked these cookies before I went away.
Mini Marble Cakes + Versatile Blogger Award
There are many variations of marble cake recipes out there – many I’ve known to be be dense, buttery and greasy. I love this kind of cakes but I often stop myself after a slice as it’s just too heavy and oily. But this, this is definitely waist-line dangerous as it’s so light and tender that…
Chocolate Cupcakes with Chocolate Mousse Filling and Peanut Butter Frosting
This is my current favourite and by far, the most-produced cupcake combination in the kitchen, and I finally felt a need to blog about them. The very first chocolate and peanut butter combination came from here (pardon the quality of those photos heh), which is also a cupcake, but has a different cake recipe. It’s a bit more troublesome…
Brown Sugar Buttermilk Muffins
Say hello to my first bake after a 1-month hiatus! We received our shipment the day before and though I’m supposed to unpack all the clothes and stuff, I couldn’t resist unpacking my baking equipment first and whip something up in the kitchen. Even now as I’m typing this blog post, I still have a…
Chocolate Oreo Cheesecake
And here is the last installment of the Cheesecake series (here’s the first and second one)! You have perhaps seen this cheesecake on my Instagram, when I brought this cheesecake to office for my colleagues. One of my colleagues requested for an Oreo cheesecake, but because I’ve already made one before, I decided to adapt…
Chocolate Kahlua Crêpe Cake
Crêpe cake has been something on my to-make list for a very, very long time – the seemingly tons of layers look so attractive and I’ve always wondered how it tastes like. So when my friend’s birthday drew near, I decided to give it a try! Given the fact that I have only one chance…
THB #34: White Chocolate Almond Souffle Cake
Blogging is like running – once you lose the momentum, it can be real hard to start again. I have been taking such a long break from blogging that sometimes I just don’t know how and where to start. Many a times I sit in front of my laptop wanting to type a post, but…
Cream Cheese Brownies (Nigella)
This is probably the most “cheaterbug” cream cheese brownies I’ve ever made. I love the fact that I don’t have to make 2 batters – just one chocolate brownie batter, with delicious and rich cream cheese slices sandwiched in the middle. Pure indulgence! The only thing is that I found the brownies a tad too…
THB #30: Chocolate Walnut Coffee Cake
Been a really long time since I last blogged, pardon the absence! Managed to sneak some time amidst all the overtime (work) to blog this simple and delicious cake! This is a bake that you most likely won’t find in cafés – purely because it doesn’t look as pretty as those that are frosted or…
Egg White Chocolate Brownies
Gooey, chocolatey, fudgy and silky goodness You might have noticed a lack of post lately… I was down with a mixture of cough, sore throat and flu about 3 weeks ago for 2 weeks (I blame it on the Chinese New Year goodies) and I could hardly taste anything – so there was no baking…
THB #29: Dark Chocolate Cheesecake + Corelle Cherish & Snapware Eco Flow Review
Time for The Home Bakers again! This time we are making a lovely chocolate cheesecake, chosen by MiMi Bakery House. This is one of my favourite bakes though I deviated from the original recipe quite significantly – this is originally a white chocolate cheesecake! But after siezing two batches of white chocolate over the double…
No-Bake Baileys Wafer “Truffles” + 2013 Reflection
As the end of the year draws near, I can’t help but think back of all that I have done/experienced in the past year. Events I cannot count my blessings enough, for I have received so many opportunities this year. I was invited to several events – Epicurean Market, Asian Masters – Masterchef Workshop with…
Chocolate-Cinnamon Tuiles
When I found out that we are baking tuiles for Bake Along – I was really excited because I’ve procrastinated baking them for God knows how long! Originated from France, tuile is a thin and crispy wafer that can be sweet or savoury. “Tuile” means “tile” in French, and is supposed to resemble the shapes…
