12 more days to go for Christmas. Time really flies. I still vividly remember that I was celebrating last year Christmas in Brisbane Australia, but I felt like it was only few months ago. The Christmas atmosphere in KL indeed differs from Australia, you basically can only feel th…
I love making cakes that are a bit different but with cakes I always seem to revert back to my old favourites. I will always experiment with cupcakes, but cakes? No. Don't ask why, I think I just like the traditional choices and flavours such as chocolate or…
I must admit, I was a bit worried initially about it as making a human form out of fondant is not as easy as making an animal or Angry Bird. This is a special request by Sophie that she has changed her favourite recently from Angry Bird to this little mermaid. The…
This is my most recent Angry Bird Series cake - Angry Bird Space. Specially baked for Sophia who ordered 1 year ago since I last left Miri time. This year, again her lovely mum ordered 2 big cakes. Time flies, I still vividly remembered her last year's birthday …
Instead of stuffing with a traditional cream filling, I've improvised these versatile and tender pastry puffs with a little bit sour raspberries cream. Also, by using some almond, it will add on the crunch of the combined tasting as well. Raspberries are a sy…
It has been quite a while that I was idle in blogging. The hectic KL life, my Hankerie's kitchen renovation plus so many cake orders over the weekend, until now I've some time to spend on my Hankerie's website. Apologize to my beloved readers and follo…
Hokkaido Cake is always my top favourite breakfast list. Looking at its miniature size, filled in with creamy whipped vanilla cream, every single mouthful of bites makes a wonderful finishing as well. If you're looking for this wonderful treat and lazy to bake, you can now make y…
Rainbow!! Everybody for sure to shout it out loud whenever see it appear in the sky. When it transforms into macarons, it gives me the feeling of "double happiness". One happiness is looks so nice, another happiness is taste nice :). My friends were asking …
I love eating the blues, and loving every minute of it! After leaving Australia, I miss all my fresh blueberries over there, even the frozen one taste so good before or after baked. Back to KL, it's indeed difficult to find even frozen blueberries, as well as more pricey than …
Vegemite in macarons? In doubts that you ever taste before or in other words you do not even know there is vegemite inside macarons. The taste is so unique, salty and sweet with macarons shell, the combination definitely give you a blast. I've done the several eating …
Creativeness is always Hankerie's trademark. Followed up from my previous post - watermelon swiss roll , I've gotten an overwhelm comments and feedback. Today I've made swiss roll again with the slightly reduced sugar recipe with same technique, rolled them i…
Followed up from my gluten-free bakes series, here comes the healthy series - sugar reduced. These berries yogurt cupcakes are my enhanced version of my previous post - Fresh Australian Mango Cupcakes . The only two differences are substitution of the mango into strawberry pu…
Winter @ Australia. It means that now is strawberry season. Thinking to bake into new gluten-free cupcakes with fresh strawberry puree, it must be wonderful blending together. Finished it with small amount of fresh custard, vibrant colour of the whole package made it looks s…
This is my another baked Gluten-free cherry cheesecake. A little bit varies from my previous baked blueberries cheesecake - more Arrowroot biscuit surrounded the cheesecake to make it more crusty. The crunchiness of the crust perfectly combine with super soft creamy cheesecake. …
Oh, cheesecake!! This is always my go-to dessert recipe whenever I'm having guests. Everyone loves it. And the best part is- the recipe is inherently gluten-free. No substitutions. In fact, this is the same flourless cake I've been making befores. It never contained flo…
Gluten-free can be made into fancy presentation too. Yes, it's absolutely gluten-free chocolate cake. Baking gluten-free in Australia can be as easy as that, substitute the normal wheat flour into ready-mix gluten-free self raising flour that you can obtain any supermarket …
Gluten-free bakes can be made into different types. Today, I'm trying out making them into bread, wheat-free. This brownish, crusty loaf has a delicious, moist, close-textured interior. The addition of bicarbonate of soda and cream of tartar helps to make the bread rise. In t…
Pancakes are the food of lazy weekend mornings after the long week days. For me, I'm definitely enjoy sweet breakfast instead of savory breakfast. In the same time, I would like to keep myself healthy and not overdose gluten. Since I'm learning and inventing this new way of…
