Midnite Baker...

Salam..really glad I got few more orders from my friends yesterday..so the preps had to be done after works ..of course ..of course..wa still makan gaji maaa...I slept at 3.30 am ..the miracle part is I did not feel sleepy at all...really happy doing the deco deco works at 2 am..Bake the cakes after maghrib ..and my hubby so sporting that nite, tapau for us dinner...TQ yaaang..Try my luck again experiment the Red Velvet..this time the cake texture is better than my 1st experiment but still I''m not satisfied with the taste!! Still prefer the rich  chocolatty taste!!

I'm running out of red colouring so the cake tak la 'Semerah Baldu' anyway Happy Bday Emily!!


Besides the Red Velvet these are the other cakes that I baked that night...all time fav Carrot Walnut and Chocolat Fudge cake.. this cake will taste better if we use a good cooking chocolate.. but I just used the chocolate button I bought at Bake With Yen.. kureeeng sedapnya.. mesti guna Hersheys ke Van Houten ke or Vochelle baru sedap!
