WW#1: Chocolate Chip Cookies

Pink & Blue Cupcakes for Auntie Emma

Ordered by Auntie Emma for her kid's birthday at school. The cupcakes are supposed to be given away as gifts to the kids rasa-nya. She initially wanted something of butterfly theme. But after seeing these, she changed her mind. Thanks to Dya for promoting!!

Since the cupcakes were to be given away as gifts, Auntie Emma has also requested for the cupcakes to be packed individually. Senang nak bahagi-bahagi, and nak bawak balik. 

The cupcakes are all in chocolate flavor. There are 50 of them altogether. Auntie Emma requested for the same design i.e. with 3 small roses, 25 pieces with pink background and another 25 with blue background. Sweet jek nampak. This design is actually suitable for wedding gifts too.

Lepas pack-pack, the 50 cupcakes are now ready to be delivered in 3 boxes. Thanks to my brother who has helped me to do the special delivery that night. Thanks to Auntie Emma for the order. And last but not least, thanks to my dearest Dya for the promo of my kedai!!

Macaroni Bakar

RM45/tray

Mac n Cheese

At times, when we get bored with the usual nasi and lauk pauk, I'll go western. Like this one particular night when we had mac and cheese. Sort of. Macam yang kat bawah ni:

And fried mushroom to go with the main dish. In case lah, the mac&cheese tak cukup kan...

Rainbow Cupcakes

When we are blessed with some free time, kami anak beranak biasanya akan berbaking. It's Zara's no 1 favorite thing to do. Especially lepas dah beribu-ribu kali dok ulang tengok orang baking kat YouTube. Harus-lah nak mencuba bake sendiri pulak kan.

Here's the masterpiece...cut in half.

For this purpose, I only used a dash of coloring in the mixture. Malas nak membazir tak tentu pasal. The coloring pun is not cheap. Asal colorful sudahhhh...yang penting anak happy.

All lined up. Ready to eat...

Disney Princess Birthday Cake

This was one of the many orders that we did prior to Puasa/Raya 2011. Ordered by Ida, a returned customer of Izzy Bakery.

The cake was made for her daughter's birthday. Nak princess cake katanya. Tahun lepas dapat 3-tier crown cake. Pink jugak. Bertuah anak Ida ni ye.

Inside was a vanilla cake layered with strawberries. Outside was vanilla buttercream, topped with Disney princess themed edible image and sugar ladybirds.

Thank you Ida for entrusting us for few times now. Hope tak serik nak order dengan kami lagi ye.

Red Velvet Cupcakes

The latest craze. The red velvet cupcakes. It seems like everybody is now so into this type of cupcakes. It is actually a chocolate cake with a little bit of apple vinegar (which gives the sour-y flavor) and red coloring (hence, the bright color). This was our best-selling cupcakes too, during the KLCC bazaar the other day. 

This was ordered by a colleague, Tina who wanted to give it a taste to our very own red velvet cupcakes with orange buttercream topping. Alhamdulillah, when asked for her testimonial, "Sedap. My husband pun suka". Except according to Tina, she still prefers the red velvet with cream cheese topping jugak. So, next project IS that, I guess. Insyallah.

Coincidently, weekend tu ada makan-makan buka puasa with SIL. So I baked extra to bring to her house as well. This one, I topped them all with red velvet crumbles. Senang, sekata jek semua. 

Buat makan as a dessert, lepas habis makan main dishes yang banyak tak terkata. Alhamdulillah. Memang laku habis. By the time we left, rasa-nya red velvet pun dah selamat habis. Happy jek kalau apa yang kita masak/baked semua licin habis kan. Below is another close-up. 

KLCC Charity Bazaar 2011

Am glad it's all over. Terbayar penat lelah tengok hasil jualan seharian. The event was supposed to start as early as 8am. But we were only there around 9:30am. Siap unload and set everything up by 10am. And made my first sale at 10:30am. Alhamdulillah.

When the crowd started to came in, I was still busy putting up labels. That was me with the Ikea magic color and picture frames. Bila customer nak beli, baru-lah kelam kabut cari small change and a bekas to put the money in.

The crowd was slow in the morning. Especially because it was office hours when we first set up the booth. So, sempat jugak lah tuan tanah bergambar kenangan dengan my first booth. 

Lunchtime was peak. It gets really busy at 12-3pm. Shared my booth with 4 others - MommyLyna, Adrini's, Watie and Nik. Had great time knowing them and their staff too. MommyLyna came during lunchtime, selling Shaklee products. Adrini's were busy juggling her nursing kurung booth in KLCC and Midvalley at the same time. Watie's educational toys were hit that day. And Nik, walaupun tak berjumpa mata, sempat hantar 2 orang staff to mend her booth full with kuih raya.

The sale was so great that by 2nd half of the day, I hardly have anything to sell. Samples pun dah habis dimakan orang. Namecard too, that I have to give out my party stuff's namecard instead.

Red velvet cupcakes were selling like hot cakes!! Should have done more since they are hit these days. Ramai betul orang booking and decided to walk around dulu and came back, only to find their red velvets are all gone. Strawberry cupcakes came second. And I also brought oreo cupcakes yang sungguh yummy. I arranged them all pretty in a 3 tier cupcakes tray. Sampaikan, many can't believe that they are edible sebab strawberry cupcakes looked so creamy.

Brownies were selling fast too. First sale was made at 10:30am. Lepas-lepas tu laju jek jalan. And not to forget the famous cranberry oat and chocolate chip cookies!! Sampaikan hari ni pun, ada yang masih email/call asking about the cookies. Insyallah, we'll be making 1 trip to Petronas again, sometime in 3rd/4th week to deliver the cookies ordered. Thank you guys for the great support!

All in all, the bazaar was great. Glad that I decided to join in, although a bit last minute. Thanks to MommyLyna who alerted me about the bazaar. Ada rezeki, Insyallah kami join lagi tahun-tahun depan yek.

To those who want to order the CHOC CHIP and CRANBERRY OAT cookies, please email us at izzybakery@gmail.com or call us at 012-345-3385, fast! We will be closing orders by the end of the week.

Toodles!

Black & White Hantaran Cupcakes

These cupcakes were ordered by Jaja for his brother's engagement do. Which I forgot to ask when.

They were actually for hantaran. So Jaja opted for the premium package. Whereby cupcakes are nicely wrapped in silver box and tied with a black and white ribbon to match the engagement theme.

This was our very first cupcakes order lepas bercuti lama from pregnancy/confinement dulu tu. So, boleh tahan bengkok juga la my hand masa mendeco tu.

Jaja gave me 3 designs for inspirations. Which I have mix and matched them to create a better look/combination. And since the theme color is already dark, we decorated the cupcakes with very simple patterns to avoid them looking serabut/heavy. Inside were vanilla and chocolate cupcakes with buttercream topping with silver dragees skit2x.

A closer look of the cupcakes

And as usual, bila dah bake for customers, I would normally bake extra for the family as well. Zara was so happy when she saw a tray of cupcakes on the table. Siap comment, "Mommy, your cupcakes taste good!!". Tak lama lepas tu I asked here, "Which one is your favorite?". She replied, "I like chocolates and vanilla". What an acknowledgement, I must say. Orang kata, kids don't lie kan?

Hope Jaja and the bakal pengantin love them as much as Zara does too!!!

Insyallah.

Cartoon Artwork Class with Yatt

I attended this class a long time ago. About 2 months before delivering Ziya. Kira masa pergi class tu perut dah memboyot lah. That explains the simplicity of the cartoon design that I chose that day. Simple habis. Ada Pooh seketul jek. Kira senang nak lukis, cepat siap so takyah berdiri lelama. Honeypot tu pun aku tambah freehand sendiri. Cos dah terlampau kosong sangat.

If you have been following this blog long enough, you'll noticed my sifu there in blue. The class was conducted at her place in Sungai Buloh. But we were actually taught by Yatt; the one wearing white tudung in this picture below.


That was my Pooh with its honeypot dah siap trace on wax paper using melted chocolate. Habis gigil. Clearly, I need practice.

And that was Yatt trying to demo on how to transfer our cartoon artwork on the cake.


My Pooh was safely transfered on the cake yang dah siap dilepa dengan buttercream at the beginning of the class. Together with the honeypot.


After transferring the image, we painted the cartoon with piping jelly. Which is made from sugar. Love the orange gila. Sebijik macam Pooh kan? But my cake obviously need more. It looks so empty.


So I came up with this walk-in-the-park theme for the background. Tambah butterfly atas hidung Pooh lagi. Now dah nampak penuh sikit kan. See the 2 tones sun?? Aku buat sendiri tu...


All in all, I had fun attending the class. Learning a new set of skills in baking. So, senang lah nanti kalau ada customer order kan. Takde la panic tak tentu pasal.

This design is particularly suitable for those who does not want to use fondant figurine on their cake. Sebab fondant figurine bila dah keras, takde pulak yang nak makan kan. So, your money go wasted di situ. And if you are the type who does not like excessive buttercream on your cake, this would be a perfect choice for you too.

So, tunggu apa lagi? Email me at izzybakery@gmail.com for order yeah!

Udang Masak Black Pepper

This was cooked as a lauk on the side dengan nasi goreng aku hari tu. Boleh tahan sedap jugak lah.

We're so used to ayam/daging masak black pepper. Tapi udang?? Am a bit sceptical at first. Tapi sebabkan deme published kat dalam Majalah Rasa, aku pk sure dah tried and tested kan. Hopefully sedap lah.

And true enough, memang sedap. Tak sedap kalu, kesian lah udang-udang besar yang mak aku kasi ni. Harus aku basuh jugak nanti. Tapi sebab sedap, selamat lah them udang kami anak beranak dah makan.

So, here's the recipe:

INGREDIENTS:

• Minced bawang merah+putih+halia
• Udang
• Sos tiram
• Kicap
• Cili merah+hijau - hiris nipis
• Bawang besar - hiris nipis

METHOD:

1. Tumis minced bawang merah+putih+halia
2. Masukkan udang. Masak till separa masak
3. Masukkan sos tiram+kicap sikit
4. Masukkan cili merah+hijau and bawang besar. Siap untuk hidang.

Highly recommended. Hubby puji sajek. Macam makanan restoren pun yer. Aceh...

Nasi Goreng

Biasa orang makan nasi goreng for breakfast kan. Tapi punya-lah sedap nasi goreng ni, aku masak jugak for dinner. Tak kira. In fact, this is actually my 3rd time guna recipe yang sama.

The first time tu, aku masak guna left over nasi ayam yang kami beli the day before tu. Serious sedap. Second time pulak, I used lebihan nasi putih yang makan the day before-nya tu, masa kat rumah my mom. And third time ni, aku amik teladan from the first time masak hari tu, I cooked the white rice guna air rebusan ayam sesiap. Rasa sedap, bau pun wangi jek.

Anyway, walaupun nasi goreng ni diadaptasi dari recipe yang aku tengok di Majalah Rasa bulan July 2011, tapi bila masak, takde lah aku tiru bulat-bulat recipe-nya. Sebab dia nak masak dengan ayam kunyit. Aku nak buat nasi goreng kosong jek sebab nak masak lauk lain on the side. So aku main cecampak jek. And macam biasa, recipe aku takde sukatan sebab kata-nya main cecampak jek kan.

INGREDIENTS:

• Nasi
• Minced bawang merah+putih+halia
• Telur
• Carrot - hiris nipis
• Kubis - shredded
• Cili merah+hijau - hiris nipis
• Sos ikan
• Bawang goreng

METHOD:

1. Masak nasi guna air rebusan ayam. Guna lebihan sup sayur pun ok. Will try this next time.
2. Tumis minced bawang merah+putih+halia. I normally have these ready in fridge at all times. So bila nak masak senang. Save time pun yek.
3. Masukkan telur ala scrambled eggs.
4. Agak-agak telur dah separuh masak, masukkan carrot+shredded kubis+cili merah&hijau 
5. Masukkan nasi yang dah masak tadi. Kacau sebati.
6. Perasakan dengan sos ikan. Kacau lagi sampai semua sekata.
7. Nak hidang, taburkan bawang goreng kat atas. 

Nasi goreng ni aku hidangkan dengan keropok ikan keping untuk penambah selera and udang masak black pepper as lauk. Nak goreng telur mata pun masyuk jugak. Ikut tekak memasing lah.

Like I said before, recipe ni untuk buat nasi goreng kosong jek. So, kalau ada yang nak buat nasi goreng sotong, boleh masukkan sotong lepas tumis, and before telur kot. Nanti boleh try in future.

Selamat Mencuba!

Nasi Goreng and Udang Masak Black Pepper

This is what I cooked for dinner tonight. Nasi goreng and udang masak black pepper. Recipes adapted from the latest Majalah Rasa.

Dalam tupperware Nescafe kuning tu is keropok ikan untuk dijadikan 'sudu' masa makan nasi goreng tu nanti. Siapa biasa buat camtu? Best kan.

Siapa yang tak beli lagi Majalah Rasa bulan July 2011, sila lah beli. Ada macam-macam recipes yang best for berbuka and sahur jugak. Agak-agak mamai, takde idea nak masak apa tu nanti. Belek jek la magazine ni. 

Gitu ler aku. Heh.

Ayam Panggang Madu

Weekend lepas, kami adik beradik had a BBQ and steamboat party for lunch. Lepas aku kicau-kan @twitter sebab sedap sangat, langsung Wafaa minta resepi marinate ayam tu. Hence, this special entry khas buat Wafaa yang aku jumpa first time kat birthday party Daniel hari tu. 

INGREDIENTS:

• Ayam - Hari tu aku guna chicken wings jek. Nak guna parts lain pun takde hal. Tapi lebih masyuk kalau guna drumstick and wings lah.
• Black pepper
• Minced garlic & ginger
• Chili sauce
• Oyster sauce
• Madu
• Garam

METHOD:

Marinate ayam dengan semua bahan di atas. Gaul-gaul. Pastu bakar. Bakar atas api utk BBQ pun best. Bakar atas api dapur pun ok. Bakar dalam oven pun jadi. Ikut suka hati hangpa. 

My only tip, kalau taknak ayam cepat hangit, jangan letak honey dulu. Honey tu boleh sapu sikit-sikit masa tengah bakar. Macam yang aku buat dalam gambar atas tu. 

To Wafaa - Kang dah buat, jangan lupa ajak aku yek!
