Sinnamon buns by Alia for The Cakery.

January 4th, 2010

I know i know. ive been neglecting this space like its ‘nobody’s business’. I’ve been preoccupied with other things that my baking is limited to the weekends only..let alone BLOGGING. lol. However, i’ve found a way of spicing things up a little.. with CINNAMON.

These Sinnamonly delicious beauties are rolled kneaded and baked by Alia. They’re on sale for a limited time only at $2.50 per (big) piece at a minimum order of four pieces.

Brownies and Blondies are also available this weekend (SATURDAY SUNDAY ONLY) however, all orders must be made before Thursday as i won’t be able to take anymore orders after that. I apologize for the inconvenience.

Profiteroles not available this weekend!!

hope to hear from you all soon.

Macaron Schmacaron!

November 22nd, 2009

‘i beg to differ. the queen bitch of all things pastry are macarons. they are the absolute diva whores of the baking world.’ - Nix (in one of the comment boxes).

I can’t agree with you more Nix! which is WHY you don’t see Macofreakinrons on the menu! I did went for a Macaron-making class earlier this year..and guess what? even the GURU’s macarons came out like those LUCKY lady biscuits. Flat and ‘feetless’ that i couldn’t make out whether it needed volumizing shampoo or a wheel chair.   Not satisfied with the outcome himself, the ‘pastry guru’ ended up making a second batch..which came out ok..but by that time, i was like who gives a s#it.  I want my MONIES back. Maybe u can teach me? i won’t sell them. promise :)

I am yet to find a full proof macaron recipe. If only i knew french. All the books on macarons seem to be in french kan? Maybe ill get a french maid.

Anyway, it was another fruitful weekend. Thank you to those who ordered. Thank you for the endless support , kind words and loyalty.seriously. i heart each and everyone of you.

Next slots are for Thursday and Friday! Oh and do check out  www.twitter.com/sasbrownies tommorrow as i will be giving out free brownies & blondies (thanks @mahzu!) to those who tweet @Sasbrownies I want candy! upon me tweeting CANDY!!!!

how exciting kan?

You will LOVEEEE MOndays~ @ TheCakery

luv.peas.brownies,

Ugly Eclairs.

November 17th, 2009

The thing about me is, I can’t seem to make anything pretty which is why i dont bother with marzipan and cupcakes and oh all of the other beautiful sweet treats. I shall leave those to the experts *see link list on left hand side of page*.  I aint no cake-beautician. but what i lack in the beauty department, i compensate in flavour. I REFUSE to compromise my ingredients which is why at times, some of my items might seem ridiculously expensive..but rest-assured you are paying that much for quality. Like today’s batch of chocolate eclairs! I only used quality chocolate all the way! Like i said, none of that choki choki , koko-jelly stuff! The Butterscotch on the other hand, is made from the best brand of brown sugar that i can find out there and the cream has been freshly whipped by yours truly (with love). I may write paragraphs and paragraphs describing the quality of ingredients that i use, but i know i shouldn’t bother.. cause at the end of the day..quality really speaks for itself :)

Anyway, i woke up in a good mood today so i decided to bake eclairs. Eclairs , speaking from experience are tres temperamental morsels. Last week, i had concluded that they are the QUEEN BITCH of all pastries. Which is why, you shouldn’t bake them when you are feeling temperamental. lol. I guess it does make sense kan?  After last week’s Eclair slots i thought of not baking them any more (in my whole entire life.. )not only because they can be temperamental but also because they are  the messiest little things to make. Unlike profiteroles, eclairs have a larger surface area which requires more ganache which makes them soo much more messy. As much as i want them to look perfect, even I have never come accross ONE perfect eclair in my whole life. Less messy maybe. but a perfectly long-shaped eclair.. dipped in ganache to perfection - never! ive heard of them. but have never seen them.. for reals. So this morning, i braved  the kitchen with an open mind and said ’screw you’ to perfection and did what i had to do..

To my surprise this time around, all of the batches came out beautifully puffed up and golden! I felt like i was Dorothy seeing Oz for the first time! lol I was over the moon! Though, i did dread the dipping-it-in-ganache part.. but i managed! haha. So i guess, Unlike the brownies, eclairs won’t be on the menu for good. i’m just going to have to make them and sell them on the days that i feel like im up for a challenge. Follow me on twitter to check out when i’m baking next!! I also have a tendency to be very generous and give away goodies for free every Monday on twitter! So add me up!

Oh and dont forget, i still have brownie slots for Thursday and Saturday! :)

love,
Sas


Chocolatey-ness is next to Godliness.

November 16th, 2009

Hi all! I’m back to baking 2 times a week guys! And here are this week’s slots

As you can see , I’ve introduced a new brownie to the menu. Been getting alot of good feedback for these lovelies. It has the right amount of fudgy-ness, sweetness and chocolatey-ness, making them purrrfect for your  chocolate cravings. Girls i’m sure you know what i’m talking about ;) So get them either this Thursday or Saturday for only $20 a box.

Although if for some (strange)reason, extremefudgydecadence isn’t really your thang feel free to choose whatever you like from the menu above.

I also cater to those who want a little bit more love on their brownies/blondies. Extra toppings of either Hazelnuts, Almonds , Walnuts , Peanuts ,Peanut butter cups or Daim  would cost $1.00 extra!

Wishing all of you a good week ahead.. hope to hear from you soon.

luv,

Sas
