She just celebrated her XXth birthday last Saturday. Initially I thought of buying her--a chocolate die hard fan a nice chocolate cake. Then I thought, why not make her a birthday cake? It has been 8 months since the last time I did some serious baking...errr that was a pecan banana cake...aiks, need to push myself to do more.
My good old baking mate, covered with dust :p but it still functions well...Vroom Vroom....
Skip all those baking steps, I shall present you the final product...
pecan walnut chocolate mud cake
Looks ugly though. Nevermind, laden it with melted chocolate and sprinkle some grated chocolate on top.
Err...is it better now?
Done with the cake, time for some private photos. Wanna know how my mum looks like?
Yup, my mum! N years ago.
TRANSFORM!
My mum in her primary skool days.
TRANSFORM!
Okay, obviously I skipped a few decades.
TRANSFORM!
This is her now.
Any idea how old is she now? hehe...Happy birthday Ah Mah!
