after my attempt of pandan chiffon, im so determined to try it and do it well. however, look at the disappointing surface of the chiffon. i really envy bakers who do it so perfectly. well, i tried many ways. before the chiffon start to crack when it rises, i place an aluminium foil on top of it and then a baking dish on top. still, FAIL. then i tried doing the mentioned (which is to cover the top) and reduce the temperature. still, FAIL. anyone knows how? ):
on a happier note, bakerzin have this 30% discount on cakes as extended mother's day offer. im NOT a cheesecake lover and i dont eat cheese. HOWEVER, this new york cheesecake was a total exception! i can never stop at one slice. is not cheesy at all and is so delicious! im in search of a recipe that yields a cake like this. i will hunt it! :D
