It's been a busy, hectic and tiring week but it's worth it.......

These BWW ( brownies with walnut ) were destined to be in KL, together with 6 MCBs ( marble cheese brownies). the weekend started with these brownies plus a few more cakes, whilst baking them, my mind was trying to figure out the deco for the other MCB and BWW which would be going to KL too the following day, they would not be as simple and as straight forward as these ones because the theme was Dora and Diego, I had not done 3D figurine for either of them before. Seen and heard them on TV, thanx to my daughter Batrisyia, i knew these characters , i could draw them on paper but 3D? that was really challenging!

10 boxes, securely wrapped and tied into four boxes
For each one ( not each box but each person ), i put an extra box underneath

thank you my Srikandi friends, Adeeb, Along, Anyah ( and Fizz too, my a Level friend ), Robi and Angah.
which consist of these, blueberry cheesetarts, chocolate chip cookies and melting moments.

To be a singer, I don't have the voice, ( can sing in the toilet only )to be a model, I don't have the height, but to bake delicious ,scrumptious and yummilicious cakes, brownies, cheesecakes and cookies, insyaallah I am able to do them. Back ache? body ache? sleepless and restless nights, it's part and parcel of doing this but the result? It puts a smile on my face, if it puts a smile on the recipients' faces. The feedbacks and comments that I recieved either via phone calls or text messages just made up for all the pain, and the lack of sleep. would I do it again? and why not? over and over again I would..........:-)

BWW withh conratulatory wish for getting 10A in the SPM exam,

A truly MCB fan for this family, thank you for taking a liking to my MCB, thank you Ita

just another day...doing her thing

using the internet as her teacher and guide to teach her to sketch, her fav character ( one of, actually, she has so many favourites from barbie to winx club to conan the detective)
after attending a kenduri in our taman, she continued with her sketch, a final touch up, a little shading here and there
and there you are, detective conan, 100% sketched and shaded by Batrisyia, an artist in the making..... I think.....

PENGUMUMAN PENGUMUMAN!!!!!DELIVERY KE KL!!!

Assalamualaikum and a Happy Tuesday to to all visiting, my blog, it could be your first time, or it could be your 'daily' visit here, whatever it is, you are all most welcome!

I have not been updating my blog as often as I had used to and sometimes i just posted the photos without any writings. I have been busy, or making myself busy, as a mother of three growing up children who go to three different schools ( the children, not the mother...hehe ) and since I am a home maker, it is my duty ( is it?, not, if I have a driver.....) to send them to schools and to fetch them from schools, three times a day because three different times!

( picture above: what i made the other night, one MCB, chocolate and vanila cupcakes plus chocolate chip cookies.)

brownies with walnut" Tahniah' wish for a not so newly wed couple, but nevertheless wish you both a happy and blessed marriage, to hafizah and partner.

Fancy that!Me, a home maker cum a driver, cum a baker, cum a cook, cum a cleaner. If an Indonesian maid gets paid Rm700 for a single task, how much do you think i should be paid for all the different tasks that i am doing everyday. Hmmmmmmmm.........but i am not an Indonesian, nor am I a maid, but a proud mum to my children so no amount of RM can pay me.....naaah, they can't afford me......

I think i have side tracked from the topic, yes, there is a delivery to KL for products which come out from Zue's Oven. sorry Lee, not as far as Toronto!! I am afraid....

My cakes had been going to KL via buses and collected at the designated bus station as agreed by the customers. So far, they had been satisfied with the services, no cakes cracked or figurines falling off the cakes ( i am referring to cakes with teddies or Wonder Pets characters on them), even the latest three tiered wedding cakes delivered last weekend arrived there safe and sound.

I had also sent boxes of cookies and brownies to KL and soon, this coming weekend a few boxes of MCB , ie marble cheese brownies will be boarding a bus to KL and the customer will pick them up at Hentian Duta.

Before, I am only doing this out of requests from my customers but since there is a demand for it, i am happy to inform here that should you , those not staying in Alor Star, feel like having cakes, cookies or brownies from my oven, feel free to call or email me and we can make the necessary arrangements.At the moment i can only cater to requests from KL. not from other places or states yet. oh,,, and Kota bharu too.

It gives me great joy and satisfaction knowing that someone, somewhere, is enjoying my box of marble cheese brownies or chocolate chip cookies, even my rainbow cake too, maybe having them for tea, or munching the cookies in front of the TV set or whatever it is that you are doing, Thank you for all the support.

Angry birds.......grrrr.....

Four days notice for me to prepare this angry birds birthday cake, does it make me angry? no, it's the opposite. my second angry birds themed birthday cake, this time i seeked Batrisyia's assistance in making some of the characters because i was quite tight with other orders which I had accepted much earlier.
I made them a few days earlier, so that i could just assemble them on the day the cake was baked
the fallen bricks
the catapult
Batrisyia helped me with the green, blue birds and the eggs, thank you dear. I woldn't be able to complete them without her help because i was busy making the mini cakes and the three tiered cake at the same time
Alhamdulillah, the feed back i received from the customer:

"gorgeous la cake angry birds tu kak zue"

actually, she's the customers' sis in law but who made the order on their behalf. Thank you farah and thank you Farah's sis and bro-in-law, and Happy birthdays to the three heroes, the three brothers.

variety is the spice of life

Made this MCB for my srikandi friend, we played a little game while chatting in the Facebook, it's called, 'guess the artist name". My other friend posted a video /song of an indonesian male singer and i said that i really do like one indonesian Lady singer, as popular as the male singer in that era, the 80s, late eighties, early 90s when i was still studying. A few of my friends tried to guess, and somehow, two of them managed to get it right, well, actually only one got it right but i was feeling generous that day and so i said, i will bake one for Mum, the one who gave the right answer, and another, for intan who also tried to guess the singer's name which is Dina Panduwinata. So I baked one MCB and one BWW and brought them to KL on 14th March to another Srikandi friend's house for a mini get together. it was a blast. Thank you Anyah for being a wonderful host and it was fun meeting Adeeb, Along and nizah too, besides Mum and Intan.
This box of red velvet cupcakes with simple deco was delivered to her sister's office in Jalan Teluk Wanjah on the morning of the day we were leaving for KL. thank you Yani and sister.
Just a simple 'HEPI BDAY ' message for my son's friend who celebrated his birhtday.
a double the size appple pie for simran, thank you dear
eggless orange cake for Simran, her repeat order. thank you dear for always supporting me
