Father's Day Cake & Ice-Cream Cake version 2

It has been weeks since I've last updated this blog. Also, It's been weeks that I've not done any baking pojects.



Well, what can I say.... I needed a break, simply a break!



Now, my first project after the much-needed break was this... a Father's Day cake for my dear second-half. Just a simple butter-pandan cake, without all the trimmings (icing?) for the ...errr... more 'matured' Father *smile*. Of course, the more we aged, the more we need to be concerned about the food we eat...

Happy Father's Day dear... (first time we celebrate this occasion too....:) ).


Of course, the cake was requested by our lovely daughter, Dalilah. I can always count on her to remind me when to bake a cake. Even on yours truly's own birthday... *sigh**smile*

Because the Father's Day cake was a bit boring (errr, I mean...well... not decorated), I would like to....ahem, ahem... 'show off' this belated entry... my second try on ice-cream cake and whipped cream topping. For this cake, I decorated the cake with piping jelly (the web design) - my first piping jelly project.

This time around, I brought the cake to my mum's. As usual, ice-cream cakes are more well-received by everybody (yummy!), but, in our hot weather, we have to finish it quickly, lest it will melt. Nobody wants to eat a 'runny' cake!

The piping jelly was fabulous. I would like to try out more on piping jelly decorations after this. But, guess I need to practise more on whipped cream topping. Mine fell 'flat', not 'fluffy' enough...

Happy (Pre)Birthday Hasif & Happy Mothers' Day

This is my first ever ice-cream cake, at last! As this is my first try, I just did a small one, a 7-inch cake. Anyway, limited space in my fridge did not allow me to do a bigger one! And this is my first 'whipped cream' topping.

Brought it to my MIL's house last weekend to be shared with he family. Coincidently, the date falls on Mohers' Day, and a day before Hasif's birthday.


Glad to say that even though the cake was not pretty *smile*, everybody loved it, in fact, it was not enough!

Hmmmm, next week I have to do this again!
