My new found hobby..

Taking pictures! I've enjoyed doing this for quite some time now but never really had the chance to buy a good camera. Anyhow, now that I have a digital camera along with me, i'll try to show you how I see things my way.=)

Take a peek at my new pHoto bLog!

Cheesecake Choco Brownies and Double Chocolate Cookies!

These are two of the latest goodies I baked for my family.=)

I made the double chocolate cookies last weekend (just didn't have the time to post it last week). It's main ingredients are cocoa powder, melted semi-sweet chocolate, and chunks of chocolate! Yeah.. it does have tons of chocolate in it which explains where it got it's name. We could even call it Triple Chocolate Cookies! lol.. I had an itsy bitsy hard time monitoring the "doneness" of the cookies though because of its gooey texture. But, as usual, the cookies came out great and were immediately gone after a few minutes.hahaha!

The Cheesecake Choco Brownies on the other hand was made just last night. You can see from the picture below how excited my big girl is!

My sweetie was craving for brownies the other night but I was not able to bake his request on demand because I wanted to make this marble looking brownies.
Individually placed on paper liners.

Yesterday while we were doing our grocery, I got all my lacking ingredients which included my favorite cream cheese =). Am so happy that it came out the way I wanted!=)
Packed are ready to go inside the frig

Taste was exquisitely delicious that had to do away with my diet for a day (that's for last night and today!=P)

I'm also selling these goodies by the way.=) You may check it out at http://mychocolateheaven.multiply.com.



My First Tinkerbell Themed Mini cake and Cupcakes!

I missed visiting my blog for a week. I've got lots of stories to share but was just preoccupied with work. Here's just one of the many kwentos I've been dying to post=)

I did this Tinkerbell themed mini cake for my client's nieces 7th birthday last August 16. I made the colorful butterfly wings beside the tinkerbell figurine and nicole's name a few days ahead just to make sure that it won't break off. Am really so happy with the outcome!! My client also raved about the look and taste of my cake which inspired me even more to research and learn more about cake decorating. To bad I forgot to take a top view shot of this cake though..

It was our first time to cater at the Philippine Army Officer's Clubhouse. Damn the party area was huge! There were life size Tinkerbell character standees on the stage and the venue was fully decorated will tons of balloons!

I got even more excited when I saw that on the stage area was a nicely skirted cake table waiting for my baked Tinkerbell mini cake and cupcakes!
My client here requested for 80 cupcakes in Banana Peanut with Chocolate Icing, Banana Choco Chip with Chocolate Icing, Vanilla Choco Chip with Strawberry Icing, and Rich Dark Chocolate with Mocha Icing. I requested my client to provide the Tinkerbell cake topper and glad that they bought 6 pcs!

They also booked for our Chocolate Fountain Gold Package .

We actually had another event that was held on the same time and date. How I wish we had two cameras so we can really take pictures of all our catered events. The other party I'm taking about was a Chocolate Factory themed 1st birthday held at Paseo Park View Suites. I want so much to talk more about the details of that party but it's not related to this post and I don't have pictures to show.. Oh well, next time i'll think about buying another digicam.





SUCH NERVE TO SPEND SO MUCH!!


I feel terribly sad for my country men and so sick and tired of hearing humiliating new about Arroyo. I've just now read another shameful article about her. This time, the report started from US. She is such a disgrace to our country. Where did she get those $15,000 and $20,000 money?! Why did she have to spend so much for a dinner? There are thousands of hungry Filipinos begging for food because of corrupt leaders like her. Why did she have to bring 65 men with her? Isn't 15 or 20 enough!?

I hope those government officials who are still clinging on her side start realizing that their boss is such a loooser!!! This should be a good reason for her impeachment.

Missy's Minnie Mouse themed 3rd birthday party!

We had a fun filled and successful 3rd birthday celebration of Missy's Minnie Mouse themed 3rd birthday party last Sunday=) We only had relatives and some of my SILs friends come over to celebrate with us. So happy that everyone enjoyed their food and brought home lots of desserts with them. After all, most of what we had day that were practically desserts!

I baked all the mini cakes and mini cupccakes of course. And again I'm thankful that they were all raving about the look and the taste. Baking was stressful but the smiles on everyone's face swept my sleepy head away.

Am also glad that we got all of our Minnie Mouse inspired party supplies from only one store in Divi. The shop is located just beside (outside) Divisoria Mall.

It was also my first time to try making fondant cake. I wouldn't say it came out perfectly but for an amateur baker like me (with only the internet, food network shows, and the baking books to rely on for reference and techniques) i guess, it's already a good one. lol

Missy’s Minnie Mouse themed 3rd Birthday Party

Dark Chocolate Almond Cake and Moist Almond Lemon Cake

My kitchen was full of sweet sugars, butter, flours, and cakes last weekend! I made Dark Chocolate Almond Cake for my daughter's real birthday last Friday, a Moist Almond Lemon Cake for my dad ( my belated happy birthday gift), and lots of mini cupcakes and 2 mini cakes for Missy's 3rd birthday party yesterday which I'll brag about on my next post.=)

Here's a shot of the cake I made for my baby girl..
It was sooo tasty, moist, and soft too! My dad even said it tasted like ice cream! lol I added a little bit of almond extract to my chocolate fudge icing. I guess that gave it that out of the ordinary taste.

Here's a slice of the cake which really speaks how moist this chocolate cake is.


This Moist Almond Lemon cake was made right after we catered to our One McKinley event last Saturday night. I actually made it in the wee hours of the night just to make sure that my dad gets surpriseD when he sis it in the morning=D I was happy that I came out perfectly! The recipe came from Ina Garten of Barefoot Contesa (one of my favorite shows!) .

Here's a shot of the cake with the lemon syrup.. another moisturicious cake! lol

A shot of the lemon cake after I put on the lemon glaze..

And to finish it off, here's a shot with the sprinkled roasted slivered almonds and message from us (thanks auntie dez for the suggestion and treat! you still owe me though.hehehe)





Pink Themed Silver Package for Baby Shower at One McKinley Function Room 1, Global City Taguig

Here's our first catered event at One McKinley Place Function Room 1 for a baby shower event. Chef Redd who was in charge of catering to the party got our service as an addition to their dessert station. I've heard that most of the baked goodies that were included on the dessert station were baked by the soon-to-be-mom herself=)



It's a pleasure for us to be chosen by a chef to be one of their dessert suppliers. =)




Bratz and Barney in Fashion themed 1st and 7th birthdays at Prestige Tower Ortigas Center



This was one of our events held last Saturday. I loved how the party venue was dressed up! The colors were so vibrant and did very well match the theme of the party.
An edited version of my shot..

Our client here requested for a Silver package with Marshmallows, Chocolate Wafer Sticks, Breadsticks, Banana, and Apple for their dippings as Bittersweet chocolate (my favorite!) for their chocolate fondue.
