Choc Mousse Cake

It's been a while since I updated my blog... During this period, I was trying to perfect my durian cake as well as try on a new recipe, chocolate mousse cake...

Well, I believe in the term 'trial and error' and 'practice makes perfect'... coz I've finally succeeded in both... I had to throw away tons of "failed" cakes... heart ache, of course.... but once I make a successful one, the exhilaration far outweighs all the disappointments... :-D

The 2 rectangular ones were "decorated" by Lynn and me... A little messy... but well, we had fun... The one below that looks like a "castle" was decorated by Lynn... a little "marshmellow overdose"... but cute :-D

Now i just have to wait for interested customers to order my cake... and in the meantime, I wil continue to "experiment" on other cakes.... hmm, what's next?

Trial and Error - mango mousse cake

I have decided to try mango mousse cake... the first one was abit "untidy"... I just have to blame it on my own impatience... i did not wait until the mousse has set before putting the mango cubes on top and poured the jelly over it... the end result? a "cloudy" top causedby liquified mousse and jelly... eeew.... It was edible though... but doesn't look nice..

This picture posted was much better... It's my 2nd try.... the "improved" version... was really glad I waited till it set... and then I add the jelly... hmm... now i know, baking cakes can really "train" a person's patience...
