Pretty Delish

Pretty Delish Small batch bakes made with love. We like our cakes less creamy and less sweet! This is a hobby, a passion and quite an obsession.

I don't exactly aim to make cakes that are "too pretty to eat". To me, cakes should look perfectly edible, and "pretty" in a way that entices you to forget that calorie count, open your mouth, and eat. Eat happily, heartily, and unashamedly, for all its delicious worth, with no single trace of guilt. As long as I give my best as a baker, I believe that simple can be pretty, and pretty can be very

delicious too. I hope you enjoy my baking space as I embark on a mission to save cupcakes from their look-good-but-don't-taste-good rep. Believe me, as someone who drinks kopi-o-kosong and teh-o-kosong, cupcakes can taste just as good without that overload of sugar! And if you're someone who thinks that matcha is one of the best flavours in the world, do give me a shout out. But if you happen to have another favourite, let me know too because I'm always up for a challenge. :)

Blessed Christmas to you!๐ŸŽ„๐ŸŒŸ

I think I've reached the age where I've finally decided I would cut down on eating sugary stuff- but Christmas bakes feel kinda essential. I love this season, gathering with our nearest and dearest.

I'm not really fond of gift giving, as i think it generally creates clutter and wastage.. so i was minimal in giving any gifts. I decided to write a few notes - which actually takes more effort than getting something off the shelf in my opinion. I suppose sharing what's on your heart/ relating with people is one of the best gifts we can offer. โค๏ธ

Recipe*: Holiday butter cookies from - the dough was too soft for us to cut out into shapes, or maybe cos our sugar used was too coarse and the dough became crumbly. I like the soft and airy texture though. It's nice if you prefer lighter cookies without a heavy, buttery taste.

*excludes gingerbread man cookie which was a gift

๐Ÿฆ„ Putting these fondant chocolate cupcakes on my feed since they were the most challenging cupcakes I've made, for a little girl who likes My Little Pony.

Enlisted help from a friend since the process was too laborious- making the pony's eyes alone required about 6 small parts of fondant. At least now I know if I want to work with fondant, I can. Still, not my passion.

Heart-shaped chocolate cupcakes with the prettiest purple sprinkles๐Ÿ’œ

I'm not much of a cake decorator as I don't like cream, and I think decorative elements just throw off the cake-to-cream ratio, not to mention sprinkles are so hard and sugary. But after seeing so many photos and videos of vintage cakes, I just felt so compelled to do something a little different for S' birthday (yes I got your hint), especially when she is into pretty things, and she's been one of the sweetest person around me.

Suffice to say, cake decorating videos make the process look so much easier than it is in reality. My cupcakes weren't perfect, and i didnt even have time to hide the imperfect cupcake for a proper photo - but I guess I'm happy that I tried to go out of my comfort zone and put in my best effort.

Most importantly, the cupcakes were enjoyed by my recipients!

I've rekindled my passion for baking cupcakes, reminiscing the time when i first started my baking craze with a red velvet cupcake. Now, onto dreaming of Christmas cupcakes ๐ŸŽ„
