I finally went to jog in the morning with my dajie, but it didn't feel good because I kept felt like laosai-ing zz. We chatted a lot and slacked a lot too. After that we went home and I asked my mother to make a hard-boiled egg again hehe, damn delicious. Then dajie and I went out to buy ingredients to make cupcakes and strawberry strudel.
Our first stop was Lot1 for lunch. Then we headed to a shop that sells baking stuff and ingredients in Sembawang. To my horror, the shop was replaced with a food court! I totally sian diao. Then we went to Sun Plaza's Fairprice to look for the missing ingredients but in the end we bought chocolate chips, which wasn't in the ingredient list lol. After that we went to Causeway Point's Cold Storage. Okay after some discussion we bought multi-purpose flour to substitute oat flour D: And we bought custard powder instead of the made-ready liquidy custard zz.
I changed into my home clothes immediately after reaching home and got work started! We prepared the ingredients for making cupcakes first because it looked a little simpler to do and higher chances of success as compared to making strawberry strudel. We simply followed the recipe and mixed sugar, butter and eggs together, followed by two kinds of flour and tada, it's ready to be baked. It's easy to say, but quite hard if you have to do it, especially alone haha.
We put 9 small balls(?) of the mixture into the oven for a try. Some were nice while most were quite yucky and chao dar. They tasted like biscuits, quite nice actually. So after having a rough gauge of how much of the mixture to put in each of the small paper cups, mine succeeded, but my dajie's failed (quite uglily LOLS). Hers looked like banana boat or something because some of the cupcakes looks kinda... disgustingly elongated HAHA! Okay la as long as it's edible can already :D
My kind dajie specially edited this lovable Chucky picture for me
retarded no. 1
We managed to make like around 40 cupcakes (which is quite little) and not all succeeded. My mother sacrificed and ate some of the chao dar ones. She complained that they tasted bitter LOL, obviously right? Then we prepared the ingredients for making the strawberry strudel. I used cake flour instead of whatever flour that was indicted on the recipe due to some stupid misunderstanding(my fault). In the end it failed terribly D: My mother asked me to try again sometime this week then I was like 'WHOA!' in my heart because this was like the first time my mother actually encouraged me to bake, so happy. Unfortunately, I'll not be free at home from tomorrow onwards till next Monday sian. So I'll probably do on next Tuesday then!
Although we failed in making the strawberry strudel, we managed to convert a strudel into a crumble! LOL okay it's kinda self-deluding but anyway, we were witty enough to come up with this idea okay. It didn't taste that bad although the custard had a rather strong taste. So we actually did strawberry crumble instead of studel :D And it tastes quite delicious when chilled, BELIEVE ME! I'm gonna let Nixon and Adriel try my cupcakes tomorrow only hahaha.
LOOK AT THE BLOODY DIFFERENCE!
