Aunty :
i am amazed at your nimble skill at the swirl for this marble muffin. artistic. i like. =D
aunty,
why the paper cup does not stick/wrap my cup cake?
when the cup cakes are cooled, the paper cups will fall apart too.
:(

Hi Jessi,
Mine normally will stick to the paper cup but I have experienced the paper cup leaving the side of the cakes too. It's either too much butter or the mixing is not properly done.

Hi Khing,
I bought these pans from Chong Trading at The Adelphi. Pretty ex...I think it's about S$150 each. I can't remember the exact price but you can call them up. It comes from USA, No. 5323 - Wear-Ever.

Hi shamini,
these are baked.

Aunt Yochana,
The very first step of creaming the butter and sugar, what is the speed of the mixer usually? I normally put on low speed. I'm not sure if I have either overbeaten or underbeat my mixture as when it's to rise, it didn't and when it's to be flat, it rised.
Can you advise please? Thank you.
hi:) i made a mouse cake from yr blog recently, and it turn out very nice. but i have a question. how do we get a clean cut look when cutting the cake? when i cut mine, the sponge cake and the mousse sort of stick to the knife, and eventually, they will stick to the top of the cake. TQ:)
aunty,
thanks for sharing the recipe.
you're the best!!!
Hi anonymous,
For mousse don't use serrated knife. Use a sharp knife, slice it and clean the knife after every slice.
rgds
Hi Jane can bake,
Use medium speed to cream your butter and sugar. A little over or under time is not much of a difference to the cake.
don't worry...

hi aunty yochana..
what is strawberry emulco and where can i get strawberry emulco?
thanks..:)
Hi Eve,
You can get strawberry emulco / paste from NTUC - King's Bake or Sun Lik or Phoon Huat.

clean knife agter every slice? oic. tq:)
Hi Aunty,
May I know what kind of milk do you use? Is it ok to use the evaporated milk kind? Less fat? I tried making muffins with UHT milk too thick for me as I don't drink milk. What else can I substitute with?
Thanks
Hi Maya,
yes, you can use evaporated milk. It will be more delicious.

Thank you very much for posting Auntie. I will give it a try.

Dear Aunty Youchana
Sometime when I beat the egg white to foamy then add sugar to beat till stiff, it becomes watery and cannot be beaten at all.
Is it that I did not beat the egg white enough?
How do you determine whether you have beat enough when:
1) Creaming egg yolk and sugar to light
2)Beating egg white to foamy
3)Beating egg white to soft peak
Regards
Irene
Hi Irene,
Your bowl probably is not greasefree and remember not to drop any egg yolk into the egg white. Any trace of egg yolk has to be taken out with the egg shell. Sometimes I add in a pinch of salt and continue beating if I find the egg white watery and it works.
(1) beating egg yolks with sugar - it should be creamy and lemoney yellow in colour.
(2) egg white beat with sugar. First you beat the egg white till slightly frothy then pour in sugar a little at a time to increase it's volume and to get soft peak, take the whisk and turn it upside down, the egg white should form into a soft hook. For stiff form, they will stand up stand like a peak of a mountain.

Hi aunty!
tried this recipe..turned out good, i made a bit of changes but of most recipes that i found online, ur blog has 1 of the better ones ! Cheers!

hi aunty yochana
i've tried this recipe, but it came out hard :(( do you know what could be the possible cause??
hi joyce,
did you cut down anything?
If you cut down sugar, it will become hard.
try cutting flour instead of sugar and it will become soft.
rgds
hi aunty yochana
yes! i cut down the ingredient into half and i think i made a big mistake in my maths! instead of using 165gm of sugar, i used only 115gm of sugar. so blur of me...
btw, i used 3 eggs, will that be okie?
thanks aunty, i will take note and try it again.
keep on baking..love your blog =)
Hi Joyce,
I guess it must be the sugar problem. Lots of people tried to cut down sugar and thus gets dense and hard cakes. 3 eggs is O.K.

aunty,
I've been checking into your site almost everydy since i stumble across it.
Your baking looks yummy!. Made the marble muffin last night and it turned out great except for the Milo cereal balls that i added into the mixture, it turned chewy and not crispy..
Where have I gone wrong.. :(
Hi,
Milo cereal balls will definitely turn soggy...cos it soaked into the batter.
rgds
Aunty,
Instead of using the cocoa powder, can i use melted chocolate instead?I do not want to compromise the cocoa powder (havent got time to buy valrhona but have chocolate bar at home)....
Marble is a thing of beauty.Call us today formarble polishing.
