Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake (北海道牛奶蛋糕)
If you are a fan of chiffon cakes, I’m sure you will know what is Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake in Singapore and Malaysia This velvety soft cupcake filled with lovely creamy custard cream, is something you will dream of it. Fun fact: Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake, also known as 北海道牛奶蛋糕, is not from Japan. It is actually originated in Singapore and Malaysia. There were two theories that why we named it, ‘Hokkaido Chiffon Cupcake’. 1) A chiffon cake that was made using Hokkaido Milk. 2) A cake that looks like a volcano that has a snow top and lava oozing out. Either way, this concept was beautifully created in Singapore/Malaysia and became really popular…
American Eagle Outfitters Singapore with TypicalBen
I participated in the #AEOStyleMe contest by American Eagle Outfitters Singapore and was picked up as one of the winners. I was over the moon! I had been reading TypicalBen‘s blog for almost 2 years and finally got to meet him. So excited! I was so nervous! Knowing that there would a number of people coming, I had made some pastries over. But, too bad it was quite hard to eat and choose clothes at the same time, so I decided to just give Ben, Randy and Pei Shi instead. This event was for Ben to style us. I’m in love with checkered clothes. Hence, I told him to choose one for me as American…
Martabak Manis (Indo Thick Pancake)
Do you know our Singapore Min Jiang Kueh? Or what the Malaysian called, Apam Balik? This is something similar. Compared to ours (Sg and Msia), theirs are much thicker, much more filling, and much larger in size! It’s Indonesian-style. They call it, Martabak Manis. You should totally try it out. If you have had been to Indonesia, I’m sure you have tried this. But if you have yet to, do not fair! Make yourself one! They are so easy to make. Instead of just peanuts and sugar, they used a mixture of butter, chocolate, chopped peanuts and cheddar cheese. ‘Keju’ is what they named their cheese. I just like the word ‘Keju, keju’, so cute.
Very Berry Crumble Cake
I love crumble cake. And this is so berry-licious! Very Berry Crumble Cake. The fact that it is whole meal, it is awesome! Look at those baked berries! You can use a mixture of different berries, I used some strawberries, blackberries and raspberries.
Healthier Egg Mayo Sandwich
Just classic Egg Mayo Sandwich….But slightly healthier. Cut back some of the calories and saturated fats. Yet, still flavorful and creamy. Switch half yogurt instead of mayonnaise. To make it even healthier, you also may omit egg yolks. However, I am not going to omit it as I love the rich flavor
Fruit Punch with Jelly| Summer Party Series
This is a easy refreshing drink that is great for Summer Party. It looks good if you have a glass jug pitcher. With your choice of your favorite carbonated drink (eg. Sprite or Club Soda etc), the fruits really bring out the fruity revitalizing of the whole drink and make it pleasantly satisfying. You can use a variety of fresh fruits you want. I used strawberries, blueberries, grapes, and mangos. It was really delicious! I like to make it extra special and adding some jelly topping to each cup and garnish them with mint leaves. Yummy!

Green
It was actually my first time wearing green pants. A friend of mine asked me to get this green pants from H&M because it was on sales. Saw Audrey from Wah!Banana that day. She was so sweet. We had sushi for lunch while with the usual chit-chat session. Afterwards, we went to walk around the area. It was fun. It was actually quite fun to dress something different sometimes. I bought this pants, thinking that it will fit my new Domachi shirt. Yup, it does! Shirt: Domachi | Pants: H&M | Shoes: Footin | Watch: Hamilton
