Bake this cake today. Actually sejak seminggu yang lalu I tak berapa sihat and bila badan dah segar sikit...apalagi...project pun jalan terus...hehehe. Actually baking ni macam satu terapi untuk I. Setiap kali kalau fikiran berserabut atau murung baking akan buat I lupa segala masalah sekejap....;-)
This was today's order. Actually this was last minutes order. Since I tak ada apa-apa plan this week...so I buatlah. Actually sekarang I dah tak ambil banyak order macam dulu-dulu lagi. Sekarang I just ambil order dari orang yang I kenal je like from friends and relatives je. But 2 weeks ago I ada ambil order from someone yang I tak kenal tapi since dia ni sedara kepada biras my sister, I ambil jugalah walaupun hati risau sebab I tak kenal dia. Tiba hari yang sepatutnya dia collect...with all the phone calls and excuses, I tunggu 2 hari dia tak sampai-sampai nak ambil kuih tu. And I ada prinsip yang product yang I jual mesti fresh and you just imagine kuih yang dia order dah tersadai for 2 days tentunya quality dah tak fresh and what if dia atau kaum keluarga dia makan then sakit perut ke nanti tentu dia salahkan I kan?
So after 2 hari dia tak collect jugak, I pum sms dia and tanya kenapa dia tak ambil kuih dia and dia kata Aunt dia sepatutnya dah collect. Pada masa tu I marah jugalah...ye lah hanya untuk sekotak kuih, I kena tunggu orang ambik sampai nak pergi pasar pun tak boleh sebab takut kalau orang datang I tak ada kat rumah. So bila dia kata dia nak ambik the next day....I dah tak boleh jual lagilah kuih tu bukan sebab I marah tapi sebab quality kuih yang dah tak lagi fresh tu. Mungkin bukan rezeki I masa tu tapi rezeki anak-anak saudara I....hehehe. So for me...moral of the story...lain kali mintak payment dulu sebelum confirm any order. By the way memang I dah tak nak ambik order dari orang yang I tak kenal.
It's been a busy weekend for me. With orders for brownies, coconut blossom and cupcakes. I've been busy baking since Friday but I love every moment of it....
Actually I nak buat egg tarts tapi Aiman kata dia tak suka egg tarts and ask me to make milk tarts instead. Been using this recipe from the first time till now. For this recipe they use bigger tart tray but I prefer tartlets....senang....tak payah nak potong.
