Naked cakes

Haha... Yup, this time round you're going to see some "naked" cakes.

To me, good cakes are not just pleasing to the eyes, they have to be delicious with the right texture, right sweetness and taste.

I love to try out recipes because I want to make sure the cakes are delicious even before they are made beautiful. So here you go...

Green tea sponge cake - this was wonderful. Attempted to put dairy whipped cream with homemade azuki beans as the filling. They turned out nice but the azuki beans were not soft and sweet enough. And I forgot to take pictures of the "dressed" cake :(

Another brownie recipe - nah, I'm still sticking to the previous chewy-fudgy recipe :)

Another batch of vanilla cupcakes - still looking for the BEST recipe... more trials to come...

There should be no cake-baking for a while as I'll be baking cookies for Chinese New Year. So far my list includes Pineapple Tarts, Chocolate Chip Cookies with Nuts, possibly some Cranberry Oatmeal Cookies too :) Stay tuned.
