Introduction

I love to bake and cook.

My greatest satisfaction comes from the smiles on each and everyone's face after tasting my food. It makes me feel that the time and effort that I have devoted is very meaningful and well spent.

I am blessed to know many good cooks and bakers who have kindly and generously shared their receipes. I have also attended workshops and researched extensively to further improvise and tweaked on these receipes so that they become my very own creation. =) Over the years, many friends have asked me to set up my own bakery shop since I have so much enthusiasm and passion for it. I hesitated for awhile before I decide to set up a blog and hopefully to start my own business, with a store front in the near future.

Please kindly support this blog and the workshops that I am going to conduct so that I can fulfill my dream of owing my own bakery shop soon.

My email address is pastriesworld@yahoo.com.sg. I look forward to hearing from you. =)

Lychee Muffins

Dear all,

I managed to make Lychee Muffins...

Well, I tweaked the receipe a little, different from the one I got in the receipe book. Reason for the tweak? I wanted to make mine softer and prettier. I followed the tips from other baking workshops that I went to previously.

End result: My family raves about them! My brother says that it tasted much better than the choc muffins that I made. For a choc lover to make such a comment, it was a heavenly surprise. And, the picky LMK also said that it was absolutely tasty. I am shocked cos this is the first time he has no negative feedback on my bakes.

Tips to make good muffins:
1. Use cake flour/top flour. They make the cake lighter and softer.
2. Always leave the muffins (before bake) out in the open for at least 20 mins to allow the mixture to thicken so that they can rise properly.
