what kept me busy

Seminggu I biarkan blog ni bersawang.

What’s been happening yang buatkan I teramat busy nya?

Actually during the week, I have been making meringues.

Sebab ada orang order 4 types of desserts for her birthday party today.

So, I started making the meringues on Wednesday.

The meringues turned out really well but they weren’t the same texture as what they sampled when I made some for them last month.

Last month when I made the sample, the meringues didnt turn out the way meringues were supposed to be.

The ‘faulty’ ones tasted so much better to our tekak and they certainly loved them as well.

But when I tried to recreate the same ‘faulty’ meringues, all of them turned out perfect instead!

I did everything ‘wrong’ in meringue making and they still turned out like how a meringue should be like!

Agggggghhhhhhh!!!!!!

I made 4 batches of meringues but none turned out the way I wanted.

I had no idea what I did wrong last time to create that gorgeous textured ‘faulty’ meringues.

So, I and The Other Half dah rasa nak muntah nak makan meringues anymore cos we’ve been eating too many for the past few days.

Only Miss 14 yang masih boleh makan meringues day in day out.

Tu yang takde mood nak update blog.

And Miss 10 also had a big test yesterday so tu yang busy jugak nya.

Now, she’s so happy and lega sebab dah tak payah gigih buat prep work every night.

Balik from the test, terus main game on her computer sampai hari ni!

Anyhow, I managed to make all the desserts by this morning.

Tak lah banyak pun kena buat, cuma 4 jenis aje.

And 30 of each.

But meringues ni kena buat 60 pieces so dapat katup dua mcm ni and fill it with dark chocolate orange ganache.

And then 30 sets of this truffles.

Since ada 3 truffles in a set, kena buat 90 biji lah kan.

Nasib kecik2 aje so tak lah jenuh nak membuatnya, hehehe

I made 3 different types of chocolate truffles.

Salted dark chocolate truffles with toasted coconut coating. Dalam dia I letak almond praline.

And strawberry dark chocolate truffles with almond praline crumbs coating. Dalam dia I letak almond praline jugak.

And a dark chocolate mint truffles with peppermint crisp crumb coating.

And strawberry coulis cheesecakes.

And mini oreo cheesecakes.

Kecik2 aje ni, 2 bites dah habis, hehehe.

And all the food menunggu tuannya datang pick up .

And now boleh rehat kejap until this weekend for another party.
