If you have been following me on Instagram, you’ll know that I have recently started up a Chai brand called Chaikra. And given the nature of Hot Cross Buns, I immediately thought of doing a Chai twist to them. With Easter right around the corner, there is no better way to celebrate than with the…
Melt In Your Mouth Pineapple Tarts
I can almost hear the firecrackers and clangs of Chinese New Year as we approach one of my favourite celebrations of the year. An excuse to have food in abundance, be surrounded by family and a period of guaranteed laughter. A celebration steeped in superstitious beliefs where this one short moment in the year will…
How to make Thin, Crisp Biscotti
‘Tis the season to be jolly… Well, perhaps 2020 may not exactly be what history would remember as a joyous year. But I do like to see the bright side of things and focus on all the happy moments, and there have been plenty. One such highlight is being able to spend more time exploring…
Soft, Fluffy, Gooey Cinnamon Rolls
Some say that nothing beats the smell of fresh baked bread coming out of the oven, that warm cosy scent that for some reason speaks to an innate part of us making us feel like everything will be okay. Even I am guilty of having that sentiment. But I take that back. What it should…
Cruffins + Kouign-amman
Hi everyone, I’m back with another laminated pastry, but this time with cruffins! So before I go assuming you know what I am on about, what are cruffins you might ask? Well, they are a mix of croissants and muffins, something dreamt up and brought to life by the famous Lune bakery here in Melbourne…
Thai Milk Tea Crème Caramel
I’ll be honest, I’ve been feeling rather lazy ever since lock down #2 (Stage 4) settled in. 🙂 Not being able to leave my vicinity has left me feeling rather constraint with what I am able to do, yet at the same time allowed me to take a step back to focus on these recipes…
Soft Flat Breads
It’s been quite awhile since the last blog post and I do apologise. This recipe in particular has been a long time coming but I’ve been putting it off, however, this does not mean I have lost touch with the recipe 🙂 I recently make them again so I can vouch that they are tasty…
Nama Chocolate – 70% Dark and Matcha | 生チョコレート
Given that Father’s day is around the corner (this weekend to be precise) in certain parts of the world, I thought a box of chocolate in 2 styles would work well as a treat. My dad loves chocolate and alcohol and thinking of that I felt there would be no gift more perfect than this….
Mini Crunchy Chocolate Chip Cookies – Famous Amos Style
Like many, one of my earliest childhood association with chocolate chip cookies stems from the sweet scent of caramelised cookies that wafts into your nose, surrounding you in an almost intoxicating scent, calling out to you as you walk through the busy shopping centres. Irresistible and hypnotic. Before you know it, you’ve found yourself trying…
What I Use In My Kitchen
Hi Everyone, This post is not quite like the usual and not recipe based. Instead it’s more of a day-to-day type of post. Because I’ve been asked quite frequently about the products that I use, I have put together a page for you listing some of the common items that I use/recommend. I will continue…
