Birthday Cheesecake

Rekha's birthday is on this coming Sunday, but I won't be seeing her until 6th of June as we're having our holidays for one week.

Earlier on, she had requested for a cheesecake, the first time when I bake for my colleagues, she was not around, so I decided to make another one for her birthday.

So far I had already baked the cheesecake for a few times, my family really enjoyed, including my relatives in Selangor. This cheesecake was known as Japanese Cheesecake.

Today is a public holiday of Wesak, and since my family too having their holidays, I decided to try what I'd failed earlier, Coffee Layer Gateau.

Bored weekend, decided to bake something with Raymond from the baking book and I was quite interested with this cake called Coffee Layer Gateau, because I love coffee very much~

Happy Mother's Day - Chocolate cake

Happy Mother's Day to all mothers in the world

She's my doctor, and I'm her patient;

She's my teacher, and I'm her student;

She's my cook, and I'm her taster;

She's my tailor, and I'm her manikin;

She's my everything, and I'm nothing to compare;

She's my guardian, and I'm her angel (the rascal one =P);

And the most wonderful thing of all that God created,

She's my mother, and I'm her daughter~

Happy Mother's Day, mum~ I love you~

Yesterday after tuition class at home, Claire (a cousin who was also my student) wanted a suggestion from me about baking a chocolate cake for mother's day. Showing her the baking book, and browsing through videos in YouTube, we finally decided which cake to bake.
