Turkish Delight

When it comes to making stuff, my middle name is "patient"... yes, this is possibly one of the sweets I needed my patience the most.

I kept stiring the sugar and corn flower mixture continuously for about an hour. Plus whole day of resting it to set.

They are real time consuming stuff, but all the arm-aching hard work is worth it when the pretty pink treat comes out just perfect:)

Sticky toffee pudding with vanilla icecream

Aaah heaven...., sweets after drinks is one of the best thing in the world, honestly, I'm not joking.

We went to All Bar One tonight. Pretty good food followed by warm pudding served with vanilla icecream...very tasty... impressive...

By the way, why do I always have extra stomach for sweets?

U hu! hu! cheesecake from Pavilion in Kuala Lumpur

Fluffy cheesecake! My house mate got these sweeties from Pavilion in KL.

OK..., they look bit messy but tasted so sweet and nice. My favourite was the strawberry one in the middle.

They are small and the texture is quite light, but the cheeseness and the topping is very satisfying. Even a greedy monkey like me was happy after two cups;)

Lazy friday night dinner...Extra cruncy peanut butter

Not only is it a Mossive peanut butter, but also it's Extra crunchy. This one is real satisfaction. With every spoonful, there are chunky bits of peanuts. I have this thing.... I always eat peanut as itself, no toast or icecream. That's the best way to indulge myself after a hard and long week.

Of course, it will be nice to use this for a chunky peanut better cookies if it lasted until i get a chance to make one...

First of many: Scones

Here it is, finally I've started! The first recipe of my world of sweets project.

For my first sweets, I went for an easy opotion. Scones for the UK. This scone came out pretty much like the biscuit from the famous chicken fast food chain, K*C.

When I tucked my hands into the cool flour, butter,milk and egg, it felt so good. I realised how much I missed working with smooth, silky flour. The way they grow in the oven...it's just so therapeutic.

Where is the strawberry jam...;( I was too lazy to make one, so this time I only got cream to go with them. For creamy lover, it was just as good...

I'm thinking Japanese sweets for the next recipe.
