Love Cake Pops
I’ve been make these “Love cake pops” since last week for clients’ orders, my kids school party and friends’ gifts. You know Valentine’s Day is no longer only between you and your lover anymore. It has a broader meaning now – a lot of love spreading out there in the universe.
Red Velvet Cupcakes with Cream Cheese Frosting
Valentine’s Day is about red. And here is the thing, I can almost guarantee you that your boy friend or husband might not be really into a box of red heart-shaped chocolate or a red shirt or a pair of red socks, but they will pretty much like to taste a red velvet cake, especially if it’s made by you.
My Mom’s Super Power Salad
I visited my mother in Hong Kong around this time last year. Despite the fact that she’s older, her life was busier. On top of her packed routine activities, she had a pair of new twin granddaughters to take care of. For those few weeks, I witnessed her flying through her days with non-stop tasks that involved both physical and mental abilities. I remember when I had my first child, the first couple weeks were totally zombifying. The inexperience was one thing, but the physical level it requires to be a new mom was immeasurable. My mom surely had the experience, but she’s in her 60s, she still looked energetic. Very energetic, like she already has two babies attaching to her body, and she’s ready to help out the house building across the street!
Peanut Butter Cheesecake with Marshmallow Frosting and Bananas
Happy Monday! How was your weekend? Mine was pretty much about eating this craziness, a.k.a. a beautiful combination of peanut butter, cheesecake, meringue and bananas. I’ve made peanut butter cheesecake so many times. And I thought going with chocolate ganache was the most heavenly thing! Except I was so wrong. And I only realized that when I came across with this wonderful inspiration.
