Looking at this picture, you might wonder what this is. It’s quite interesting how people can create different ways of making attractive desserts. This small kiosk called Chippy here in Singapore sells different kinds of pica-pica (finger food). From fish and chips, chicken pops and the last thing I remembered is the Fried Mars.

I first saw that there are great reviews about their Tiramisu and good to know it is right! For me, this is their best dessert. Not too sweet but still pleasant. But I want it to be cooler/ chilled.

Here are some baking musts:

1. Mixers- Consistency is important in baking to reach the perfection of what you are creating. Thus having a good mixer saves time and effort thus is a good investment.
2. Oven- A good oven can inspire. Of course our old one didn’t count, so the new one really open new doors of desire haha! Baking is now attainable! Look for an oven that had temperature indicators and also the size.
3. Bakeware - Different sizes of pan for cakes, muffins, cookies. (more…)

The food here at The French Stall was not really authentic French but it was not bad. They even offered French fries (funny! really sticking to the misconception.

So let me skip to the desserts. There were not much desserts offered..we wanted to try the better ones than the ones on the set menu (we assumed it’s mediocre) so we ordered the Special Chocolate Cake. While my friends ordered also Souffle.

The cake was supposed to be special but I wasn’t impressed. It wasn’t sweet plus I can taste the grainy sugar outside the cake.

Most of you would wonder if it’s a cookie right? Each piece is ultimately thin but rich with Belgian Chocolate which I found is addicting when you start munching on one. I first discovered this when my friends brought this from their hometown in Cebu. They ordered it straight from the maker! So I was curious about how this tastes because it looked like a thin biscuit, no sign of chocolate bits at all. Because of the cold weather in Beijing that time, it remained chilled which compliments its taste.

Here in Singapore, my favorite branch is in Dempsey Hill. It has the feel of lounge-y laid back music ranch bar where sometimes there’s an acoustic singer serenading the crowd. It reminds me of Friend’s Central Perk!

I remember having a bet with a friend. We were once eating a three scope waffle treat choosing New York Super Fudge Chunk, Strawberry Cheesecake and Chunky Monkey. I was very keen on things I put in my mouth so I saw a white chocolate piece inside the New York Super Fudge Chunk but they didn’t believe there’s white chocolate inside. Well, I won obviously! Got myself a free Ben & Jerry’s of my choice!

We had dinner inside a cable car while the waiters serve our full course meal after every round the cable car goes. The last part, there was a really cute cake for my birthday!

This Oreo cheesecake is surprisingly dee-li-cious (quote quote my friend Soph says). The big strawberry is too beautiful to eat.

Though I was a bit sad aging another year, but this wonderful surprise became icing on my cake as I celebrate the day of my birth.
Thank you H and K! You definitely surprised me! *wink wink*

Drop by well-rounded teaspoon onto ungreased baking sheets.

We ordered 3 types of desserts to somehow wash away the salty after taste.

There’s the Panacota, ChocoLava Cake and the other I forgot.
