To do or not to do......



Would u accept if someone wants to order 30,000 pcs of pineapple tarts fm you for this coming Chinese New Year?? gulp.. by the night of CNY my fingers would be as flaky as the tart.. sure melecet and melecur one hahaha




Ingredients
180g butter
120g margarine - I used all butter
2 tbsp sweetened condensed milk
1/2 tbsp legit powder - spoekek powder
18 egg yolks
210g powdered sugar
60g flour
200g pitted prunes



Method:
1. Beat the butter and margarine until white and fluffy, add sweetened condensed milk and spoekek powder. Stir until smooth... set aside
2. Beat the egg yolks and powdered sugar until thick and white. Pour butter mixture bit by bit, stirring until well blended.
3. Add sifted flour little by little while stirring until blended.
4. Prepare a baking pan volume of 1500 ml. Cover with baking sheet and spread butter.
5. Pour 1 tablespoon of dough, flatten and bake at 175C for 7 mins - as always i weigh my batter.. divide it into 12 layers.. each layer weigh 75g.. grill each layer for 7mins.. last layer bake it using upper and lower fire for 10 mins


..... and yes after thinking it over for almost a month.. i decided to turn down the order and to my dear hb.. hv a safe trip to HCM tomorrow :o@

izahdaut said...

After almost a month toying with the idea i decided that i tak nak jadi superwoman lah.. susah nanti if dah jadi superwoman nak kena keep up pulak.. ku tak sanggup mengenang kan jari jari ku.. eh u ingat tak advert kat tv malaysia.. pasal sabun cuci baju.. that woman nyanyi..

Jari jari ku
sakit semua
cuba continue nyanyi lepas tu hahahhah

Rima said...

Alamak Zarin i think ur eyes really play trick lah pagi tadi.. mana ade kurus sehhhh.. ni lemak kat pewut masih macam pakai boyar hahha

I think if i agree sure i hv no time to do anything else.. then sure tak leh bake lain.. sure boring bangat..

Rima said...

Tell me abt it babe.. dah sebulan i sit on it.. at first i thought i shud take up the challenge and summon both my sister to help me out but bila dipikir2 .. macam tak leh angs lah.. nanti jari ku jadi macam raisins hahaha

Shes actually tuan tanah one of my hb punya big costumer.. every year pun during CNY she will order that much to be given out and she told my hb that dia dah fall in lab with my tart since the day i gave her a box as a good gasture.. dah tu siap dgn suggestion suruh i engage one helper for a month just to help me out.. errr i think i will need at least a few more helper seh baru boleh settle itew 30,000 pcs ..

Rima said...

LOL LG.. if eating em toksah cakap.. lagi lagi waktu munch tu tengah watch telly.. lagi lah tak sedar berapa ketul dah masuk dalam perut hehe

Rima said...

Tak leh lah Jun.. my mom also ade gv me suggestion but we are talking abt 30k and not 3k lol.. silap hari bulan tidur pun kat daput jugak seh haha

Rima said...

Thats a good idea Sally.. never thought of asking other food bloggers to help out.. i did asked both my sis and they agree but they can only help after they're done with work..so am back to square one so i decided not to take it..

CS said...

Rima
Kalau siap accommodation bagai, dgn rela hati I will book a flight there, cewah.

Eksyen jer tu walhal nak buat 3 biji tart nenas masih bercongak2 lagi, har3 .. Beli fillingnya tapi dah berzaman mende tu bertafakur dlm esbok. Kes expired dah tu..

Rima said...

KG
I say take up the challenge ah.. 1200 pcs of macarons is till bearable ah if u hv the time and energy.. kadang tu bila order dah berlambat kita akan rasa macam satu beban tau.. so if u can manage ur time why not ey..

Tak tahu apasal semalam rasa macam nak makan lapis prunes.. dah dapat makan a few slices i terus potong yg lain and gv it to others..

Rima said...

Salam KUmmi.. aduhhh bukan tak nak.. bila dgr how much dia nak bayar tu rasa macam semangat berkobar kobar nak buat but kan bila ingat ingat padahnye rasa macam nak cabut pulak hahaha

Rima said...

LOL Izah.. can u imagine baking it for 3wks and lepas tu demam for a week? eekkk touch wood.. benda yg boleh dielak kan kita patut elak kan.. betul takkkk?? hehe

Rima said...

LOL cik som.. ye ker?? hehe.. tak sanggup lah cik som.. kita ni bukan macam dulu lagi.. suka take order.. now dah tua lah.. nak take order pun ikut mood..

Tu filling if malas nak buat tart kecik kecik.. pi buat dough and fill it in ur pie dish then letak pineapple filling then bakar.. habis satu packet sebelum expire har3

Rima said...

Lina
Oh tak mungkin.. 30k tu if buat bila nak game.. bukan kita ade factory hahah

Sizuka said...

Rima,

I would turned down the order too. To me, bila dah terpaksa buat, dah tak seronok. In the end, buat dalam terpaksa. Furthermore, with a toddler to take care of, that's quite tough to handle :)

Halo Rima,

Nevermind, you can consider that if you get some big orders next time round :) baking marathon organized by bisousatoi :)

Btw, for a long time, I noticed that all your baked cakes does not have a crack at the top. If you are comfortable in sharing info, you could let me know what is the secret? is it the oven that you are using?

Regards,
Sally

Edi said...

klau sonia dah bsr boleh dia tlg kan..klau sy dekat sana maybe sy apply jadi tukang apa2lah yg akk sudi /nak sy buat..mesti best blja baking ngan akk..

Rima said...

Sizuka
My thoughts exactly.. si dah Sonia ni time dia tido lah mama dia boleh bake.. if bake cake tak pe.. senang bai tu.. nak bake cookies.. ape ape cookies lah harus ade banyak sabar.. kuih tart ni mana nak terap.. mana nak sepit, mana nak letak inti then baru boleh bakor dan nak pack.. aduhhh tak leh lah.. if only i hv a robot to do all that kahkahkah

Rima said...

Sally
Sometimes my cake do crack for whatever reason that i dont know.. they say if u dont want ur cake to hv a crack u hv to place a semi wet towel all around ur pan.. tie it.. pour ur batter into ur pan and bake it..

Honestly i think it all has got to do with the temp of ur oven.. try placing ur cake pan on the bottom layer instead..

Rima said...

Hehe Edi.. sub? dia dah specifically told my hb that she wants me to do it and get a part time maid to help me.. hehhe easier said then done.. betol tak? :op

Rima said...

LOL Melati.. nak baca pun terkial kial ape lagi nak bercakap loghat orang perak selatan.. ni dah terbelit lidah ku.. siapa nak tolong?? akuuuu jugak hahaha

Rima said...

Alahhh Farra.. unlike u.. i no longer hv the urge to take order..lagi lagi big order.. been there done that.. dah almost 10yrs now tak ambik order waktu raya.. ni pun if got order i ikut mood.. dah tua kot hahha

Rima said...

Memang betul Fara.. rezki jgn ditolak and sakit jng di jemput ahaksss.. at first tu macam nak jugak.. kira kira macam nak challenge diri sendiri but cannot lah.. impossible.. nak apply eh?? pls send in ur resume by tmrw kahkahkah
