6 days in total since i last updated my blog.. whats up with me??! after a short hols i simply got no time to do anything else.. i still hv tons of emails to reply.. i didnt even get to blog walk let alone say hi to my fellow food bloggers.. sorry peeps.. will do that when time is on my side again cos it looks like for the next couple of days i will be busy with this weekend's orders.. an order which i confirmed 4 months ago for 31st of December 2011.
Anyway i will do a separate entry on whats going on with our daily mundane life... i celebrated my birthday two days ago with my family.. didnt do anything big and didnt want any prezzies either cos i can foresee a couple of new things for my wardrobe when we go to Europe next month.. we got back fm KL last Thursday.. hb had wanted to stay longer but i couldnt cos i hd two orders which were confirmed even bef we decided to do our KL trip.. i guess that KL trip was a must as it involved mom and dad's year end road trip which we try to fulfil every year with them..

Anyway besides baking macs for my orders.. i also managed to bake Berries Pavlova, a Gingerbread House and also Chocolate Truffle Cake for our Xmas day gathering.. i did all that within two days and to top it up we also did our last min xmas shopping.. now that was an easy task since it involves shopping lol
So ok.. i will post the recipe for this super delish cake.. u can bake it in ur 7" cake pan and use a 8" cake ring for it OR u can bake it in ur brownie pan and turn it into several small cakes (for easier distribution and packaging)

Salam Kak Rima,
Happy belated birthday My dear kak Rima!!! Best nye g Europe... Hehehe... Hope u will have a great time n mane tau jumpa u kat airport ke... Hehehe
Anyway, ur recipe calls for non dairy whipping cream. Can use normal whipping cream tak kak? Will it make any difference? Maaf kakau selalu bertanye... ;)
Salam Seri
No worries.. am happy to answer .. yes it uses dairy and non dairy whipping cream.. i think u can use all dairy whipping cream cuma the truffle cream will not be "kental"? lol tak tahu macam mana nak explain..
Actually i had wanted to use all dairy whipping cream since thats what i have in my fridge but change my mind cos i want to follow the recipe to the T
Ty for the wish.. jumpa kat airport? err hmmm :op
