Malic Acid

Not very familiar with Malic Acid or Mono Acid. But recently, when I was about to make some jelly, I realized that the small packet of Malic Acid that came with the Konnyaku Jelly mix was gone missing! I've looked everywhere, but couldn't find it. So, I had to get some from the store, otherwise, I would just have to waste the jelly mix, and that wouldn't be nice.

At the store, I asked Alice, the shop owner, about the 'ingredient'. She told me that other than adding to the jelly mixture, it can also be used in tart filling mixture eg. pineapple tart filling. Oh I see... but what else?? I don't think I'm gonna be needing it in anything else other than jelly... have to start digging... won't wanna waste it... or maybe I can use it in my pudding??...

Nozzle

Nozzle Set

For those who love to decorate, this thing is her 'best buddy'. There are many shapes and sizes, and this set offers you just the thing. But if you want to have a different set, you can always get it loose, only at a higher price though.

If you are a newbie like me, you might need to refer to a book or just attend a class to learn how to use it. For the time being, I just refer to my 'cake decorating' book or video (youtube). You can always google for it. The best so far (for me) is the video by HowdiniGuru.

Paste

One thing that is common to all bakers, PASTE. Food paste, not 'copy paste' (^^). Having various type of flavors at home is a compulsory to me. It can be used in chocolate making, cupcakes, cakes or even ice cream. There are many flavors available - orange, pandan, blueberry, strawberry, chocolate, mango etc.

I prefer food paste rather than food coloring, coz it comes with the 'taste', not just color. This is how it looks like...

Some of my 'collections'

You can get these at any baking shop at affordable price (^^).

Stuff To Have

To bake, one must have all the necessary stuff eg. flour, sugar, egg etc. Some stuff are necessary, while others are optional. Here are some that I have at the moment (among many others)...

These are optional... but to those who love to decorate, they are a must!

These too...

And these...

And these...

Super Sponge - This one is quite 'famous'... often found it in a recipe...

Fruit Filling

Well known stuff, Flour (^^)

My kitchen is not perfect without these stuff... among other things... luckily the shop is just around the block (^^) feel like visiting it everyday... ngee...

Why Baking?

As any other kids, I had so many hobbies when I was in primary school - baking, designing, knitting, drawing, sewing and crocheting. And when I grew up, I started to 'forget' some of my hobbies, while some I kept till I graduated from UiTM.

Only now I realize that I'm more to baking than any other things... why? Maybe because I love to decorate... and also because I have 5 lovely kids who LOVE when I bake (^^)
