Pasta de nata

They aren't squeezy cheese on puff pastry...but they are the lovely Portuguese cream tarts.

The custard filling came out with a really heart-warming home-made taste. My hard mixing action not to make the eggs into scrambled egg has paid off in the end:)

Maybe I could have left them in the oven a tiny bit longer to give them a nicer tan.. still taste pretty good.

Disaster macaroons...

....;( they were going to be macaroons....

Lesson learned, when mixing the meringue and the powdery stuff, it is very important not to mix too much as it will keep the macaroons from rising, but not mixing enough will make the macaroons too fluffy and crack. The latter was my case...

Never mind, the taste was like macaroons and texture wasn't far off...

Falilure is the mother of success...

Wahaca's Mango sorbet

Friday night, we went for drinks followed by an excellent food at Wahaca, a Mexican restaurant in canary wharf. Although we stuffed ourselves absolutely till the stomach-bursting point..., we topped it up with final treat, Mango Sorbet...

I though I wouldn't be able to have that, but having a dessert in front of me, there is not way I say "no".

Rich mango taste, and refreshing icy texture went down very well;)

Thanks to Wahaca for the great service too:)

Panettone

Oh... no... I left my panettone and went to the gym, and came back, found this monster in the kitchen...

In the end, it came out very well.

It might not yet be Christmas, but this Italian dessert bread is worth all the hard work... I'm very happy with it:)

Key lime cheesecake

Andy got us those pretty dessert from M&S.

They might look tiny for greedy monkeys, but the sugary biscuit base, the rich cheese cake middle, and refreshing lime jelly was definitely a satisfaction:)

Humm, I have to say M&S does good desserts... yummy yummy....

JD and Coke cake

I've made a massive Jack Daniels and Coke cake for our party yesterday:)

It was the most alcholic cake ever. Drop of JD became a shot and two, three... and a cup.. and so on...

I'm very sartisfied with the lovely deco that Andy, Andy K, and I did. Good work;)

Although it was a huge cake, only little pieces was left in the end. Thank you every one, high five:)

Burgers

Yes, this blog is all about sweets, so.. if I want burgers here, they have to be sweets..., of course.

Double pat ty, cheese, lettuce, bacon, and freshly baked buns, actually, all of them are freshly baked... oh! and the incing mayo to complete the premium burger.
