Cup cakes for birthday

Wah...this thread is really fast leh. Only 2 days never log on and its already moving on so fast.

I gg on the 9 dec workshop..so no one attending this date?

Js mum I will trsf the paper cup$ to u shortly. Can u help to pass it to pink and i will collect it from her during the workshop. Cos not working at the east liao.

xiauling, indeed can see lots of improvment in ur frosting.

Another suggestion on the non stick spray...I bought those empty container meant for hair spray and filled it with veg oil and spray on the tray.

Jst wanna share custard cream cake baked by my niece who is only 13 yrs old. Yummy....
I told her next time anyone in the family wanna order birthday cake can go to her. She baked nice banana choco cake too. I told her I'll be posting it in the forum to share her master piece with u mummies here. She told me don;t want and its ugly...'I say wah ur standard very high leh!!!!'

Catika what u bake? And wat happen maybe mummies here can help to retify the source.

Js'mum

fatmum
Impressed wif your 13 yr old niece's master pc

who going to n2inpink's workshop on 20th?
 
Xiao Ling/Fat Mum: Hey I'm gging on the 9th too..

Cant remb which thread I loaded this receipe from. Thot it seems easier than the flaky pastry. Is the crust the same type as the egg tart we buy from the shops?

Btw if I bght the tart mould (not disposable type). So after baking how do I remove the tart fr the mould?

Btw Egg Tart Filling: Some recipe call for evaporated milk to b added. This receipe don. So will I get the same taste?

EGG TARTS

Ingredients for egg filling
160g sugar
300ml water
lemon slice
8 egg yolks and 7 egg whites
1 drop yellow coloring (not nec, but use it if you find that the egg colour is in pale yellow)

Method for the egg filling
1. Stir in sugar into boiling water till dissolved
2. Add the lemon juice and set aside till cooled
3. Lightly beat the eggs and filter the eggs
4. Combine the eggs with the sugar water. Set aside.

Ingredients for Pastry
250g butter at room temp
450g flour
1 egg
1tsp vanilla essence
Method for pastry
1. Sift the flour
2. Rub the butter with the flour till like crumbs
3. Add egg and knead till dough like
4. Add essence and mix well.
5. Take a portion and shape the crust into tart mould.

** Method (for Oven)
1. Bake the tart crust at preheat oven at 180C for 10mins. (Make sure that the crust is completely baked and dry).
2. Pour egg mixture into crust and bake at 180C for about 10 - 15mins. (Make sure egg filling is cooked but do not overbake as the filling will result in a crack. I didn't watch the clock, I watch the oven window).
 
foreverfriend, i use 20g cos my tart mould is the medium size one...but i do find the crust too thick. can reduce or increase it accordingly. hope this info helps.

He must be so happy now tat biz is picking up more recently.

Thanx Xiao ling. Didnt try Egg tart todae. Tried cream puffs, thot it'll b easier.. BUT flopped. became "pancakes" instead...

Help help!!!

Do u all hv a weighing machine @ hm to weigh flour, sugar etc? How to measure 120g plain flour, if I don hv a weighing scale?

I;ve got measuring spoons & cups @ hm. when receipe calls for 1 TSBP, do i scoop a flat TSBP or a heaped TSBP..

Need to clarify these doubts b4 i try on creams puffs & donuts..
 
3rascals,

How's your egg or fruit tarts? Can share here and give me some? I like fruit tarts..hehe.

<font color="aa00aa">Catika,</font>

Sure, will see you on 15th.

Hmm..why not share here abt your baking? Maybe the experts here can help you. This thread is meant for sharing and learning as you know leh.

<font color="0000ff">fatmum,</font>

Sure, oredi with n2inpink.

Wow, your niece so high standard arh? The cake looks so yummy n nice. Tell her we envy her so much leh...can bake at this young age. FANTASTIC!!!

<font color="ff0000">Shook,</font>

You not gg for the 15th? I dunno if I'm still 'wanted' for the donut demo leh. Feel so paiseh to teach there lah...Hehe!
 
Js'Mum: For donut, can i replace Canola Oil with butter? (don use cooking oil at hm) & omit the lemon juice?
 
3rascals,

I not sure abt replacing with butter and omiting lemon juice. Dunno how's the taste gg to be like. Sori hor, can't help you. Do you hv any other oil at home?
 
JS'mum: didnt try tarts.. only cream puff. Hope my donuts goes well then will try tarts. at hm only margarine, butter & seseme oil.. Btw u use weighing scale?

Xiao Ling: saw the scale. But like not accurate lei. Thot of getting a digital one but don wanna waste the $$ unless nessc..
 
how to measure 120g of plain flour at hm if I;ve got no scale? only measuring spoon? Wanna try on cream puff again tml.. my dough is too wet. thot mayb too little flour or too much butter???
 
3rascals,

Yup, I use digital weighing scale, previously bot during a BP, cost ard $20+. I oso hv a manual kitchen scale.

Why not get some cooking oil from your mum or neighbour if you know them well? hehe..just a thot lah.

I'm not sure abt measuring with the spoon for flour. But think whether heaped or flat depends on the ingredients you want to use. See if other mums can help you in the later morning. Sori!
 
Xiao Ling: Went thru the archives & realised the egg tart receipe is fr u. How u measure yr sugar & flour? using scale or normal tablespoon?

Sweetie_Hamster: I wanna try yr fruit tart. Realised most measurements in grams. U use weighing scale? If not pls guide me on how to measure. Thanx U
 
Js mum, paisei, now then trsf the $ to u cos bz packing my luggage. Trsf done 26/11/07 @ 0544hrs ref 1453992312. Many thanks

I told my niece to fwd her recipes to me then once I receive will post here and share with mummies

Wah..3rascals at this hour u still thinking abt baking. U really got addicted liao he...he....I remember during my sec sch days,
1 heaped/rounded dessert spoon (the normal spoon we used for dinning) = 25gm regardless of type of ingredient. So 2 dessert spoon = 1 table spoon/TBSP...but that will contradict ur last measurement i.e 1 tbsp sugar= 25g. Hope i did not confuse u ah!! Now I oso used digital scale. Perhaps u can invest on the daiso scale plus minus abit shld be alrite. Baking its like chemistry..mix to see the effect.

For butter to replace oil personally think shld be alrite but u need to melt it first. Else u may have problem during the mixing cos can't mix evenly and thus result to over mixing. But for lemon I think it is necessary cos lemon is acidic so may need it to make the ingredients esp the liquid form like milk to be curdy so that ur batter may not end up too soft/watery.

For TSP/teaspoon, normally its meant for baking powder etc so I don't really scoop the ingredient to full heap but agaration.

As for measuring cup was told by phoon huat staff not to compact the ingredient.

Hmm....the cream puff did u wait for the dough to cool down before mixing in the egg? Cos if dough is too hot it may cook the egg . as a result the egg can't perfom as a raising agent.

Xiauling ur egg tart looks yummy. Think will try using my muffin tray to bake the pastry.
 
3rascals,
I use a measuring scale, brought it from Phoon Huat quite sometime back. don't how to measure without scale..sorrie.

see if anyone else has any idea?

Js'mum
My pleasure
happy.gif

I will b going for the class on 20th Dec

3rascals
I hv 2 measuring scales - both not digital one. I find it crucial to hv. Dun need to invest in digital scale. Plus or minus a bit is ok unless u want chef std
Out of curiosity, wat oil do u use for cooking?
For tablespoon, I use normal soup spoon. I hv a measuring cup for cup measurement. Sorry can't help on the conversion

happy.gif


the taste test... YUMMY!!! like the nice nice fragrant taste... a bit like egg, a bit like yoghurt (used marigold low fat natural youghurt, 2 x 150ml for 1.90), a bit like vanilla... the bite... hmm... soft, does not stick to teeth... hmm... but think i will cut down on the 125g of sugar. it's a bit sweet for me... i like not so sweet stuffs.
happy.gif
(porportion of 250g of flour to 125g of sugar... hmm... maybe i'll cut down to 100g of sugar)

I'm eating some doughnuts without any coating... nice nice... hehehe.. but think kids will like some chocolates!
