Good Evening Aunty,

I'm your new fan, I really love your blog that I went through your blog again and again. Is it likely for you to publish a cookbook? I've tried several of your recipes and they worked well. I think you have a big groups of followers waiting for your baking lessons and we will support if you ever published a cookbook. Rest early.

Hi Aunty Yochana

I baked a butter cheese cake yesterday using a Mirowave conventional oven. What happen was the sides and the bottom of the cake burnt. The top is ok and inside is soft and moist. I lower the temperature from the original receipe also. Can you enlighten me what is the problem? Thank you.

Hi anonymous,

The problem with microwave oven is that they turn round and round causing the batter to shake. Normally to bake a cake, the tin must not be moved till it's entirely cooked.

Hi Aunty

Would like to check with you if you heard of 椰香粉? If yes, do you have any idea, where can I get it?

Cheers

HI kate,

Is it with green bean flour or is it completely coconut?

Hi Aunty

It's without the green bean flour. Do you have any idea on that?

Cheers

Hi Aunty,

This lapis reminds me of lapis sarawak but to what i know their recipes are wayy to sweet. How long do u take to make this? Looks like ur efforts are well worth it. Like always.

Hi Sue,

I started at 9.00+ a.m. and finished around 2 p.m.

Wow...5 hrs.

Hi Aunty,

I was just browsing on the net and I saw your blogsite. You are an amazing baker and Im, truly impressed. I hope you can help me with this problem im facing.
I was experimenting on the lapis legit and I noticed that by the time I wanted to fold in the egg whites into the egg yolk mixture, the egg yolk mixture looks like as if it has curdled. Do you know why this happens and how it will affect the result of the cake? Thank you....

Hi Fitri,

Don't worry if it cuddles, because lapis is baked layered by layered and when you spoon the batter onto the hot layers, they will melt and turn watery and at this juncture, you'll notice that they have become a smooth batter.

Can you tell me how does the cake turn out after baking? It should be soft.

Another tip is that you should use good butter for lapis - canned Golden Churn and this helps to lessen the cuddling.

Hi Aunty Yochana,

Thank you for your reply. When I was watching the cake rise from the oven it looked really good. BUT... when I took it out to cool, the whole cake sort of sunk and it became a super thin lapis legit. Hahahaha... The sides were quite good but the middle were sticking together.

It was a good try, but I wonder if its because the butter and vanilla extract was rather cool.

Thank you for the tip on the butter. I'll try it again and update you on my discovery. =)
