Baking for Ah Wei's Birthday

Ah Wei's birthday was last week but last week Guat Shan and I was still in Kampar. We couldn't make it back to celebrate Ah Wei's birthday. So, we make it up by baking for a birthday cake for Ah Wei and celebrating her birthday in Greenbox, a karaoke session! Yay!



It was practically our first time really baking. We were kinda scientific as in we read the recipe several times to plan the steps and then accurately measure the quantity of ingredients needed. 450g means 450g, no more, no less. But then my mom, an experienced baker, came and started throwing the ingredients into the mixing bowl according to her instinct. See the difference?



The most difficult part was not the mixing and baking part. It was the topping part apparently. The cream for topping is so 'fragile' that I could not exert additional force or else it would destroy the smooth surface. Geez!



But alas! We managed to produce an edible and presentable cake! Wala~



Happy Belated Birthday, Ah Wei!
