In Summer


I just reallized summer are almost gone, but I still in the summer mood. Having the summer fruits are one of the best thing in summer time. Before it's all gone, I have left something behind.


Berries are one of the fruit I loved. Strawberries, blueberries, blackberries and the most beautiful raspberries. Tarte aux framboises usually use white tart shell, but raspberries are perfect with chocolate, so I use chocolate tart shell instead.


Before got Christine Manfield’s Desserts, I already have Coeur à la Crème moulds. Which one I will make first when I get the book? Of coures this heart-shaped Vanilla mascarpone Coeur à la Crème with raspberries and blackberries. Nothing will better than cream and fresh berries, I never have traditional one before, but this mascarpone one is heaven in your mouth.


Berry terrine is easy to make, I put this one together in just 5 minutes, but someone always ask me when I will make this again, because he loves it.



Cake au chocolat et aux framboises - another raspberry-chocolate perfect match.

These are berry memories about this summer, will keep them up until next summer.

Peony and Cherry blossoms


Monday is my best friend's birthday. We haven't see each other in 4 years, and I just couldn't help make this cake for her. When she see the photos, she suprised, and loved it.

Spend 2 days making the peony, I don't have the petal cutter, so the petals cut out all by hands. More than 1o lays of petal, that is a huge job for me, when it's finished, I know she will like the cake.
