Strawberry Shortcake Theme Party!

For the past 2 months, I been asking my parents to buy me a Strawberry Shortcake cake for my upcoming 3 years old birthday. This year, my parents will planned to let me have a simple birthday celebration in school. However, the school closed on my birthay, 26 Nov. So we brought forward my celebration to tomorrow afternoon instead.

My parents have ordered a 1kg cake in my favourite Strawberry Shortcake character. On top of that, Mummy & Mama has prepare the goodie bags for my friends.

My dear Mummy, Mama together with lil Hebe will be at my school tomorrow, to witness my celebration. I'm so looking forwards to the event tomorrow.

Strawberry Yogurt Chiffon Cake

Below is the yogurt cake that Mummy has baked on last Sunday afternoon with my help. I keep telling Mummy that I like to have strawberry cake.. so an idea struck her!

We use the receipe from this link, & modify some of the ingredients. We had the cake for our breakfast yesterday. The whole cake is gone by yesterday afternoon.

Ingredients: (18cm round tin)
* This time, we used an round tin instead chiffon tube tin.

3 egg yolks
20g sugar
30 ml corn oil
80g strawberry flavoured yogurt (we used emmi brand)
90g cake flour
1/2 tsp strawberry esssence paste

4 egg whites
40g sugar
1/4 tsp cream tartar

Method:
1. Cream egg yolks and sugar till creamy.
2. Add in the oil, strawberry paste and yogurt, mix till well-combined.
3. Sieve in the flour and mix till batter is lump-free.
4. Beat egg white with electric beater until big bubbles formed. Sprinkle in cream of tartar and beat until it is white in colour. Add in sugar 3 times (a little at a time) and beat until stiff perks formed. About 7 minutes for 150w egg beater.
5. Pour 1/2 egg white into flour mixture in (3) and blend well.
6. Pour flour mixture into the rest of the egg white and fold till just blended. 7. Pour batter into ungreased tube pan. Bake at 170 - 180C for 30 - 40 minutes or until cooked.
8. Invert the cooked cake during cooling process.

You may try baking the cake.. it taste light and yummy like the texture of japanese cheese cake we bought from Ichiban. Happy Trying!

Japanese Honey Sponge Cake

Although Mummy has been busy looking after the lil H in the daytime..
She is super busy taking care of our needs in the evening when I back from school, on top of that trying to cope cooking our simple meals for dinner.

She been craving to do her favourite baking .. forsaking her pm nap to try out some new receipes. Been searching for easy to bake receipes for light sponge cakes

This is her 2nd attempt.. it is a 50% success coz the cake rises very high and well. However, the bottom of the cake has uncooked lumps of flour. The upper part of the cake tastes nice.. light and nice aroma of honey. Hope the 3rd attempt she try again the next time, will be a PERFECT!

Pic of the cake baked just now..
Oops the pic is not nicely taken & using Mummy's mobile phone. The cake is not burnt, in fact has a nice even brown col on the top of the cake.

Hello Kitty Trolley Bag

This is the Hello Kitty red trolley bag that Mummy has got it 2 months ago. Yesterday is her 1st time using it do her marketing at our nearby NTUC.. with me in the sling together with Mama. End up she seems to buy a fair bit of grocery.. the bag itself is not sturdy enough to carry the weight and diffcult to handle.

When we got home, Mummy noticed there is a small tear on the bottom right of the bag. Oh my!!! Mummy is so heart pain over the tear .... sob sob!!!
Sayang Mummy!

Daddy, have you taken your dinner?

Sharing one of event taken place one of evening last week...


** a late evening while Mummy trying her utmost to tuck me to bed, I was busy tossing here and there, jumping on the bed, nearly drove her 'mad' with anger.

Then, Daddy returned home from work & walked into our room, to 'rescue' poor Mummy. Below is the conversation taken place.

Daddy : Darling, be good .. time to sleep
Hayley : I'm not tired..
Daddy: Good girl.. come Daddy tuck u to bed
Hayley paused and quieten .. deep in thought
Hayley : Daddy, u eat dinner yet?
Daddy : Not yet..
Hayley : Daddy, go and eat dinner. I sleep by myself.
Daddy: Really?
Hayley nodded ..

Soon after Daddy left the room, leaving Mummy and me in the room.. I quickly dozed off within 10 min and all by myself. Bravo!! I'm indeed a good girl, letting my hungry & tired Daddy had his dinner in peace. This is something that Daddy like to blog to remind me the next time.

Sweet Video of 2 lil Hs'

Below is a video captured by Mummy just now.

As she left the room, to do some quick washing.
Upon her return & to her delight, she found that I was busy entertaining my lil sis with my music notes. Hebe did listen attentively to what I'm playing and singing.
This shows that I really love her a lot..
