Strawberry Cake, take 2

When I had first started teaching myself how to bake, back at the start of this site (when it was still called The Happy Hufflepuff), I had made a strawberry cake that I was very, very happy with.

Orange Almond Cake

There's nothing like a zesty citrus cake with a cup of coffee for tea (or breakfast) to make you feel aliiiive! Hehe saw a tweet from Simon Holland that said "Once you realize that you don't need a special occasion to buy a cake, the second part of your life begins." Yes, I completely 100% … Continue reading Orange Almond Cake →

Ricotta Apple Cake

I was meant to do a bit of a brownie experiment this weekend - had planned it out perfectly except for one thing... I forgot to buy eggs. What the hoohay? So I had only 3 eggs on hand and a hankering to bake this evening and quickly pivoted from the brownie experiment plan to … Continue reading Ricotta Apple Cake →

Blood Orange Poppyseed Loaf

I'm gonna enjoy the blood orange season for as long as it's here (which is not long, considering I live in Malaysia and we get it imported from the States - so it's really touch and go) so I hope you guys really don't mind that I'm posting yet another orange based recipe. I mean, … Continue reading Blood Orange Poppyseed Loaf →

Honey Lemon Poppyseed Cake

We've come to the point in the wedding planning stages where we are now counting down the DAYS! It's 7 days to go to the ceremony, and then we'll be home free to just be a married couple - no more wedding planning, no more invitation lists, seating charts, fabric samples, and endless other things. … Continue reading Honey Lemon Poppyseed Cake →

Chocolate Salted Caramel Cake

I have my favourite chocolate cake recipe, and despite having tried multiple other recipes since then, I still go back to it as my number one. So these days, the purpose of my trying out other chocolate cake recipes isn't to try to find a better one, it really is just to try different ones. … Continue reading Chocolate Salted Caramel Cake →

Strawberry Meringue Chocolate Cake

//assets.pinterest.com/js/pinit.js What is there to do when one is stuck in Friday night traffic for close to three hours? Why, devise a new concept for cake, of course! I was on my way on Friday night, the rain beating down on my windshield, hungry and craving for everything under the sun, when I thought of … Continue reading Strawberry Meringue Chocolate Cake →

Victoria Sandwich

A cake fit for a queen, they say. This humble, no-frills, cake may not be fancy or fashionable, but its origins are far from humble. I spent the most recent public holiday reading up on random Wikipedia offerings, offset by the sudden urge to research Bran Castle (apparently it's on the market), wandering through the … Continue reading Victoria Sandwich →

Three Years with Ellebug, or The Happy Hufflepuff

I went to nine schools throughout my academic career, moved houses 13 times, I work at one of the Big 4 accounting firms as a management consultant (which, besides having an incredibly high employee turnover, the nature of our jobs is that we do short term projects). Permanence is not a concept I am familiar … Continue reading Three Years with Ellebug, or The Happy Hufflepuff →
