*Welcome to my blog.*

Hi, thanks for visiting.
Here is another blog among many blogs that are about bakings.
I'm a hobbyist. And I bake to eat. I love cookies & you can definitely call me a cookie monster.

I bake from recipes I searched online. There ain't much in my collection, however, the recipes I collected are very simple, with success confirmed!
As I am new to baking, & if you are too, this is the correct place for you to look at the simple & delicious recipes.

    Saint Sébastien (Checkerboard Cake).


    This cake is awesome if you like chocolate. I wish I can share with you the recipe but, due to the class I am attending, I am told not to. Sorry about that. However, I can suggest to Google checkerboard cake if you are interested.


    This cake is chocolatey as the whole cake is covered with ganache. Yumz. And in between the checkered layer is spread with a layer of ganache too.

    The cake is made of almond pound cake & chocolate almond pound cake. The chocolate cake doesn't use cocoa powder but chocolate bar (of course, you can use conventure chocolates - the class uses that).



    This is my 2nd time remaking this cake and it is a success.
    It is really delicious. The cake is finished in 3 days (one day chilling in fridge overnight, 2nd day sliced it and left 2 pieces. The 3 day, all gone. 👍)

    I am sure I will build this cake again, since I love it.

    Hope to see you again in my next post.
