N's Piggy Cake

&hearts Noel's First Birthday Cake - it's a pig!

I do not know how a cake can be so adorable! This is by far the best cake I have ever seen. I gasped in disbelief then went into a cycle of over-excitement when I received photos from Giff about her cute little darling, Noel's first birthday party.

Apparently according to Giff, all the kids at the party went crazy about the cake. Who won't be when they saw such a cute cake! I definitely would be amongst the kids fighting for the piggy cake. Oohhh pigs are just so adorable!

Milo Freeze

♥ Frozen Milo Drinks

Sydney has been having quite a bit of a weather tandrum lately. One day it's hot and the other, it's cold. There's one drinks that I couldn't resist, be it a really hot day or a really really cold. Yup, you guess it. It's Milo by Nestle.

Just dissolve some milo with hot water, put it in a blender with lots of ice, some condensed milk and a little bit more water (or milk if you like), and blend. It's as easy as abc. Also I have just found out Milo is actually originated from Australia. Maybe we should all be having Milo on Australia day with a nice square of lamington!

I Love Puddings

♥ yummy custard pudding

It was one of those days when a craving of sweet, silky yet rich thing slipped in. And one of those frustrating day when you couldn't have what you want. With some determination (and a short walk down to buy milk. Yes. We ran out of milk) and none-the-least, will power (to shove my bum off the couch), a cold sweet, silky and rich dessert sat on our table after dinner. *yay*

♥ Recipe of custard pudding with caramel sauce from:
福田淳子 Fukuda Junko's プリンの本 (Purin no Hon), which literary means "Pudding Book".

ps. of course my recipe book is actually in chinese. I love it how they translated the title of the book to "I love Pudding".

October October October!!

1 whole month has gone by without any update on Cocoa Buta. I am utterly disappointed at my proscratination but on another thought, no update could also have meant that I have had a very busy October! So what exactly have I been busy at?



A visit to Azuma Japanese Restaurant was just an example.



We also had a very early breakfast at Bills, Surry Hills on a lazy sunday morning.



There was also the Danks Street Festival where we sampled some really nice Lamb Pita from Danks St Depot.

Oh what a month! More details photos shall follow up soon.
