froggy 0 Report post Posted January 6, 2011 Thanks for your praising,i feels shy lei..haha.. I get most of the baking stuffs from Daiso. Phoon huat is quite expensive right? As for the colouring,vanilla essences etc i get it from JB! Half Price at all time! hi rondy JB which shop did you go? Is it the one opposite sentosa, near the hotel? have heard that their things there are cheaper, but they closed on sunday so yet to have a chance to visit, tried to search online also found nothing. What kind of things do they stock? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
froggy 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 I want to learn to bake!!! Hopefully my new kitchen will be more user friendly for baking. Any tips in kitchen design that is good for baking?? not really good design for baking lah. But just make sure to have an oven, plus allow for a reasonable amount of work top space, otherwise quite difficult to work your batter/dough/pastry etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

froggy 0 Report post Posted January 7, 2011 oh ok. Need how many power point near the working area? 2? I would say at least 2, but more will be better. And this area is not the same area for appliances like rice cooker, kettle etc right? If so, better have more bc very troublesome to keep plugging and unplugging.
