good morning aunty, checking in daily at your blog is like breakfast (and sometimes supper), yummy! Thanks for the bolu recipe too.
One question, how do you get the flat top for the cupcakes?
hi yochana,
what icing did u use?
rgds,
Kim
Hi Kim,
I used icing sugar with a little lemon juice.

HI Yuri,
Don't fill up too much in one cupcake and it will be flat on top. Another point is that the batter must be more watery rather than thick.

Hi Aunty Yochana
Could you post the recipe please? My daughter likes this cupcake and would like me to make for her.
I also love to look at all the cakes which u have baked, especially those with the nice cake molds. Where do you get them?

hi anonymous,
Actually a Kitchen Aid is good enough for home-made bread. There again, it depends on the volume u are making. For bigger volume, get Spar Mixer from Phoon Huat. It's good for bread mixing. Even a Major Kenwood is good enough if you want to make ..say...about 500 gm. of bread flour.

Thank you very much for generous advised.Actually i am looking kitchen aid, but any idea where to get in singapore.
Hi Aunty Lucy,
Thks for posting the recipe. Would like to just check with you on the coffee icing. Do we take out some of the white icing from the 230gm portion n add in the coffee granules with hot water to get the coffee icing? I am not too clear on that part. Appreciate your clarification on it. Thks n regds
Hi aunty, May I know whether we are supposed to grease a bundt tin with pattern on it? Cause the intricate pattern might result in the batter getting stuck to the small pattern right?
Thanks aunty. God Bless
-su-
i like the artwork on the cupcake. Yum!
Hi su,
Yes yes you need to grease the bundt pan heavily otherwise it will get stuck.

Hi chris,
tho originally the recipe did not mention, I used some of the white icing to mix into the coffee mixture otherwise it's too watery.
rgds
Hi anonymous.

Dear Aunty,
Thank you for yr receipe, I have a few question, hope u can help me.
I've tried last nite, before it was fridge, the cake seem to b soft but this morning i tried it was hard & sticky, is it the right texture? regards the sugar , is it the sugar that normally ppl use to cook gultinous ball come in orange & brown?
Regards,
Wish
Hi thank you for sharing recipe.
3) sift in flour and baking
powder and BEAT together till smooth.
Beat meaning use mixter to beat will the cake become hard or just use hand to mix well. Mrs owyong
Hi Mrs. Owyong,
You can either beat in a machine or just use a spatula. For me, I use the machine at low speed.
rgds
Hi wish,
No...that sugar is wrong. You can get the brown sugar in NTUC - CSR brand or any brand.
The cake should be soft even after 3 days. Somewhere must have gone wrong..

Hi Aunty,
Thankyou soo much for the recipe..u r not only the good baker but generous too..i've few questions regarding this coffee cupcake..that
if i want to bake it like a cake so what size of the pan i can use?and what will be the temperature & the time to bake.Thankyou soo much aunty for you help and time.
Samreen.
Hi Samreen,
thank you very much for your kind words.
I think you have to add in extra 50 gm. cake flour if you want to bake into a big cake so that it's more stable. For cupcakes, normally you don't need so much flour. Bake at 175 to 180 for about 45 to 50 mins. or till cooked.
