Hello there everyone! Hope it's not too late to wish each & every one of you a joyous "Happy New Year"! I pray that the year 2011 will bring you much joy, love, good health & prosperity....Muahhhh!!

It's the 4th day in the year 2011 & I have yet to finish up my previous entries....Erkkkk!! My apologies as I've been swarmed with orders ever since Christmas...On this note, I would like to convey my sincere thanks to everyone who had supported me throughout the year 2010...Your continuous supports means the world to me...Love you tonnes!! Hope I'll still be getting your support & much more this year 2011 ;-)

This Christmas order came from one of my baking goods supplier, Aunty Yen...She had always shared my excitement over my baking experiences ( or maybe she's forced to as I would never stop yapping each time I saw her! Ha..ha... )

Love Of A Daughter

Being an Account Executive, year end has always been a busy time for ZRZ...We had a long stretch of public holidays recently & when others were busy going off on holidays, ZRZ was stuck in her office rushing out those account reports & stuffs...

Nevertheless, her thoughts was always on her family in Pasir Mas, Kelantan ( an 8 hours drive from Kuala Lumpur )....Since she couldn't visit them during the holidays recently, she did the next best thing - sending them their favorite 'Ritz Passion' cupcakes...Yes, my cupcakes traveled all the way to Pasir Mas! I likeeeeeeeeeeee! :-P

Mum-To-Be Brownies

Reen, a mum-to-be saw my brownies photos via my facebook's page ( Ritz Passion ) & was suddenly hit with a craving for it :-P

Understanding Reen's situation, I put aside my busy schedules & make time to bake Reen's brownies on the spot! 

Almond Brownies

Reen, my sincere thank you for your order. It was such a pleasure baking the brownies for you & your 'baby-to-be' :-) Hope you had enjoyed your Almond Brownies ;-) All the best to you dear :-x

*Wishful thinking - Hope Reen's baby will grow up & be an ardent fan of Ritz Passion's goodies ;-)

December, The Month Of Love...

December...A month filled with many joyous occasions for me :-) Engagements & weddings happening mostly every week...I loved my December as I could feel love lingering in the air most of the time :-x Nonetheless, it was also the month where my skill as a novice baker was put to test ;-)

I was already 'buried' under several orders of cupcakes when I received an order from Ms. Puteri...She requested that I do her wedding cupcakes as part of her wedding gift for her hubby to be, Najib...Always a sucker when it comes to love, I simply couldn't refuse Puteri's request & despite my full schedule, I accepted her order...I also can't deny Puteri when she said 'please' several times :-P...Apart from her wedding gift cupcakes, Puteri also ordered additional cupcakes for her to present to her family...

Wishing you a & Najib a happy marriage & hoping that your life together will be rich in joy & love...Congratulations!

His & Hers Engagement Gifts

I was so excited yet at the same time scared when I received this order from a lovely couple, Rexxa & Dilla...Their order thrilled me as I get to 'play' with more of my newly purchased baking tools :-P It also had my tummy tied in knots as not only will my goodies be part of their engagement gifts, but it is also my first time ( ever! ) baking for a Chef! Yes, Rexxa is a Chef attached to one of the prominent hotels in Singapore & when he sent me his email telling me of his intention, my jaw practically dropped to the floor! Me, a novice baker baking for a Chef?!!! I had to re-read my email several times just to make sure I got it right! He..he...

Rexxa told me that he wishes to order both his & Dilla's engagement gifts from me as they love what they saw in my blog...I admit that it was such an honor hearing that from Rexxa & Dilla...Nevertheless, it didn't help to put my mind at ease when they insisted that I do their engagement goodies :-P I was straight-out honest with Rexxa, saying that I am REALLY a novice baker & wonder if he might want to re-consider ordering from me...Not that I don't want to take their order, but again, me baking for a Chef? I somehow felt as though Ramsay Gordon is breathing down my neck ( seriously! )...He..He...

After much 'pep' talk from Rexxa & Dilla, not forgetting Rexxa coming all the way to Kuala Lumpur to see me & discuss on his order, I put on a 'brave' face & accepted their orders ( not without tonnes of warnings to them though! )...He..He...

For Rexxa's side, he wished to present Dilla with a set of cupcakes, decorated in red & gold...

As for Dilla's side, she wanted something different & opted for my new product, mini cakes...Her theme color was light blue & silver...

The Bride-To-Be

To Rexxa & Dilla, my utmost gratitude for your support & confidence in me...It's such an honor being able to bake for the both of you & to be part of your special day...I do pray that the goodies turned out as good as what you have expected it to be ;-) 

Thank you once again & my sincere congratulations on your engagement, Rexxa & Dilla!

A Lazy Sunday

Sigh! Have you ever had one of those lazy...lazy day? A day when you just don't feel like doing anything :-P It's a day after Christmas ( also known as 'Boxing Day' ) today & I'm having such an extremely lazy Sunday :-P All I want to do is kick back & rest, especially after a hectic marathon of fulfilling cupcake orders...Oh! By the way, thanks so much to those who had ordered my goodies in conjunction with the Christmas celebration :-) I do hope my goodies cheered up your special day...To those who celebrated Christmas, my best wishes to you & may your celebration be a joyous one, shared with family & friends...and to those not celebrating, do have a wonderful weekend kay :-)

The weather is just nice today & so perfect for my lazy day :-) Wasn't in the mood to cook up any dishes, what more fancy ones...Was happy just to lay down infront of the tv & watch all those wonderful programmes :-P Yet a girl has to eat, rite?...

After much dragging of my feet into the kitchen, here's what I've whipped up for my simple comfort lunch, or should I say brunch ;-)

A Quick, Simple Yet Very Comforting Dish ;-)

Now to excuse myself & get some work done on my back-logged posts :-P Have a great Sunday everyone!
