Mango Mousse Cake & Egg Tart

There was a get-together at The T Family's. I knew we're having a Chinese dinner, so I decided to make something along the same line... You say Chinese desserts? I say mango pudding & egg tarts!

Instead of pudding, I went for a mousse cake.


Mango mousse, topped with mango jelly, nestled in sponge fingers. I used a canned mango pulp for both mousse and jelly. 850g for only $2! Yay, Walmart! :D


My fave dim sum: egg tart. When at a dim sum restaurant, I have to grab a plate (or two sometimes) of egg tarts as soon as I see them even before my actual meal starts... Here I cheated with store-bought tart shells *gasp* Sprinkled with cinnamon à la English custard tart or South African Melktert.

Olympic Cupcakes

On my day off today, I had a quite strong (almost uncontrollable for some reason) craving for cupcakes. So I made some.


Watching the Olympics almost all day made me do this: 5 M&M'S to represent Olympic rings - they are not interlocking like they should, but they will be completely together later in my tummy. Maple leaf and Hinomaru are cut-outs of Fruit To Go.
