Wah still alive de. Haven't been in here since my last post.

Rondy : Yum your xmas cakes.

Froggy : Pei fu Pei fu, make pineapple filling from scratch, very tiring and tedious to make.

gfac : That's thoughtful of you. Marshmallow's list of things to get is about there. I would also recommend that you get some easy baking recipe books for your fiancee before she goes on to the advanced level.

shumin : Lovely cookies, I made these before. But alot hard work moulding and putting in koko crunch bits.

There's a Baking supplies shop in JB I always go to, but its not at sentosa - don't see any in sentosa since I go into JB frequently.

Daiso has cheap baking stuff but their paper boxes for cakes are kind of flimsy, I bought a couple of them before and find not so good. However if you going to IMM, you might want to check out another baking supplies shop at the warehous level, its much more cheaper . ^_^

Phoon Huat is not the only baking supplies shop, you can also check out Sun Lik near Bras Besah complex or Ailin at Tanjong Katong Complex or KCT located near aljunied mrt. For west side (Jurong), there's Lee Bee Enterprises.

4) Another spreading question: how to spread the cream cheese nicely over the crust? - experts, please help again~! :lol:

How did you spread the crust on your pan? It's very simple, use the back of the spoon to smoothen the crust slowly and evenly the way you spread kaya on bread but dun press the back of the spoon into the base as if denting the base. The biscuit base will be hard after baking if you press the back of the spoon into the crust that way.

5) i think i need a proper mixing bowl - as you can see, i m using a rice-cooker pot for mixing... good thing is it has non-stick coating hahaha :lol:

6) breaking the digestive biscuit into small fine grains took me a really LONG time... i think next time, i should throw all biscuits into a ziplock bag, hammer them into small bits and then pour out :lol: or is there any proper method to break the biscuits? again, experts please help !!

For ziplock method, I used this method previously and put the bag into the pestle mortar bowl and pound till fine. The fastest and easiest method is to get either a food processor or blender to process the biscuits evenly. I recently bought my blender so I can use this to process the biscuits for cheesecakes - it's one of my better recipes

okie that's all for now :P

Bun Bun, thanks for your info~! may i know what's the name of the baking supplies shop at IMM? It would be much more convenient for me than to go to Clementi... :)

Thanks for the tips~ :)

for the crust, i used the spatula then press with back of a spoon... then for the cheese i used spatula only. hmmm i suspect the crust already got problem, some parts too thick and some part too thin, which leads to more uneveness when spreading the cheese... taste was also affected becos of the thickness difference... :wacko: need more practice leh! :sport-smiley-003:

oh~ i was worried that blender might be too aggressive for the biscuit so didn't dare to use hahahaha... shall try blender next time... sounds less tiring than pounding LOL :yeah:

Marshmallow,

You're welcome! The shop is called Star Net Marketing Pte Ltd, located on the 4th floor at the warehouse section. You can buy alot of things in bulk cheaper than Daiso.

Take the lift from lobby A (near the MacDonalds) to level 4

Walk left towards the Staff cafeteria

Turn right and right once more towards a long corridor and you will reach there.

However, if you want to get items, better buy before february arrives cos they going to stop serving cash and carry customers.

For blender, I suggest you don't set the blender on at full speed. Maybe at a slow-medium speed.

Yes 2 more weeks for cash & carry customers. However, I read from Star Net's website, they going to introduce a new kind of payment system which is yet to be announced after february.

Their 8”x8”x5” cake box which is usually at $0.48 will be now $0.27, about 43% discount, quite cheap leh, but not sure if I'm going to buy any yet as I've been busy to bake - So many projects to do this year.

PS: You're staying at JE, nearest to Lakeside? Either way you can go IMM or Lee Bee Enterprises (Lee Bee enterprises is at JW St 52.)

I think I mentioned about the temperature somewhere in the forum before, so a recap here: every oven is built differently although the primary functions of an oven are mainly for baking, microwaving, grilling, roasting, etc.

The voltage is also different too, even the oven model may be the same but in overseas countries and here, the voltage differs - this I'm not sure how much it differs.

For temperature, even if you set the temperature to the one listed in recipes you have on hand.. again, the temperature also differs when you read it with a oven thermometer due to the make of the oven, the voltage and maybe climate - consider this: the electricity goes sky high when the hotter days comes round, no? So it is better to get to know your own oven instead and determine whether the temperature is higher or lower based on your bakes. A tested and tried approach is better than just reading from the article itself.

Hope this helps.

hi~

hubby sent me this article which i thought is very informative:
