Either adults or children fall head over heels for chocolate pudding whose texture is soft and delicate like velvet. It is generously topped with crisp chocolate curls contrasting to the texture of the pudding. Don't be surprised if you find yourself licking the lips or even reaching to the second cup after finishing one!

When I was a child caramel custard is a menu I never ordered whenever I saw it appeared among the list of dessert menu. The reason is my first experience of it is soooo disappointing; being served an out-of-the-pack custard instead of a homemade one. Since then I turned my back to this dessert as if it was an unforgivable criminal!
Time flew by and my distaste of it did fade away. On the other hand, my love of caramel seems to be ceaselessly increased. So I decided to give this caramel dessert a try with a huge anticipation of impressive outcome.
Voilà! A melt-in-your-mouth crème caramel. Though it causes the cost to soar, I insist to use vanilla pod here because an aroma of vanilla plays important role in this menu. I suggest all fans of caramel to try this since the alluring bittersweet taste may make you feel almost like intoxicated by the surreal deliciousness!!

This is an order from my lovely customer in occasion of her friends' birthday. Yes, it is 'friends' with 's' because 5 persons are happened to have their birthday very close together. What a big celebration it would be :)
I supposed to have this picture posted few weeks ago but there are long lists of orders keeping me super duper busy from the beginning of songkran holiday up until now. My special menu of summer like Ripe mango and lime cake makes such a big hit!
Finally, I got myself a short break to resume another important task of updating my blog. This is a Strawberry chocolate cake which I firstly created for my brother, Sunny whom I name the cake after. He had a special request for his birthday cake which I took it as a good opportunity to search for a good recipe of it. From a journey to a towering pile of my baking books, I select good elements here and there. I combined more than three recipes to set it up. And I think my attempt really worth it. Sunny's birthday cake wows the guests with an over-the-moon experience of chocolate cake.
This simply pretty cake is velvet chocolate cake layered with chocolate mousse and fresh sliced strawberries. It is all covered with chocolate ganache which never fails to make any cake look luxuriously beautiful. Shiny lovely strawberries are placed on top to announce a key ingredient, at the same time, to make such a charming presentation of the cake!

Our summer special menu goes to ripe mango and lime cake. It tastes so light and refreshing. The piquant lime curd filling is the right match for mildly sweet ripe mango. Exactly, the dessert to finish your meal in this season.
Above: Dark chocolate cheesecake with chopped hazelnut (Perugian style)
Intense taste of dark chocolate is one of the things I always surrender myself to. This chocolate cheesecake has bitter sweet flavour derived from premium grade chocolate imported from Italy. Better yet, the recipe originated from Perugia in central Italy as well. Hazelnuts are coarsely chopped and added just to make it practically perfect!

A customer asks me to arrange gift sets. It was very fun baking this order. He has so brilliant idea giving away cookies, muffins and brownies all packed together in a quilted fabric tote. The receiver will certainly be touched by his creative way to say 'Thank you.' I think the box containing a pair of muffins or mini cups of brownie is perfect as a snack box for meeting too.
Above: Stewed apple with crispy buttery brown sugar crumble
This hearty warm dessert served after a meal is of British origin. Green apples are baked until soft and succulent, the texture sharply contrasts to brown sugar crumble topping.
I prefer having this dish warm with crème anglais (vanilla pouring custard) while many people would rather have it with a scoop of vanilla ice-cream which will eventually melt down to be vanilla sauce itself. No matter which style; hot or cold, apple crumble never fails to make your dessert time a joyous time.
