Improved version of carrot cake.



These are snapshots of a carrot cake sold to my collegue Kak Ina for her husband's 51st B'day. I am happy to report that they love the cake and I have already receive an order of chocolate cake from them.

Kak Ida's order


Hi,

This is a recent order that I took from Kak Ida. It was a box of my signature product, Red Velvet Cup Cakes with cream cheese frosting.

My Red Velvet cupcakes come in 2 sizes,

1) Small - 5 cm (W) x 3 cm (H) (2 oz souffle cup)

2) Large -6 cm (W) x 3.5 cm (H)(3.25 oz souffle cup)

Carrot ginger cakes with cream cheese frosting.


I made this cake two days ago...

The cake is very rich and it is something that I consider as a heavy dessert.

Infusion of ginger with carrots, as strange as it may sounds, works perfectly for this cake. I also complement the cake mixture with a small helping of crush pecans and walnuts.

The cake is layered and smoothered with a sumptous volume of cream cheese frosting. Because of this, this cake must be adequately refrigerated prior to serving so that it gains consistency.




The orange ribbon on the cake is made using carrot as the base ingredients. Proud to say that not a drop of artificial colouring was use in this cake.

On a personal note, my kids absolutely adore this cake. They took small nibbles at a time and before I knew it, a quarter of it was gone by day's end. I was simultaneosly flattered (that they love my cooking) and horrified (that they are able to down such a huge chunk of heavy cakes!).

Well, kids don't lie. If they love it.... :)

Besides this monstrous chunck, I m considering of making this cake in a slightly smaller or leaner version. If you are interested, order or inquiry are greatly welcome.

My cupcakes..

These are snapshots of some of the cupcakes that I made..




My cupcake comes in several variations and can be custom-made according to your needs and requirements. You can basically choose your cupcakes sizes, flavours, toppings, decors as well as packaging. For pricing, kindly contact me by phone or email.

Have a look at this butter cupcakes with fondant dressing that I recently made.


My son Amir brought a box of this cupcake to school as a Teacher's Day gift.


Needless to say, the cupcakes was an instant hit among his teachers :)

Red Velvet

Hi...

This was my creation last weekend; Red Velvet Cup Cakes with cream cheese frosting.

This naughty-sounding Red Velvet cake is essentially a type of rich chocolate-based cakes with a very distinctive deep red colour (hence, the name red velvet come forth). According to wikipedia, the Red Velvet is classic dessert that originates from the Southern United States, where it was ceremoniously hailed as the "Chocolate Cake of the South".

And apparently, the devine Miss Oprah Winfrey is a fan too..



..as she made it known to public of her preference for the Red Velvet cake in her "O" magazine.

And finally, a few more shots of my Red Velvet cakes..










My creation of course, comes in various cup-cakes sizes. But a full sizes cake is also available upon request.

My self and what I do...

Hi..

This is my debut posting, so I think it is only fair to my blog reader if I introduce myself properly.

My name is Harlina Mohamad Haron. I shared my life with Azalarry Abdullah, with whom I am blessed with three beautiful children (2 boys and a baby girl).

I am a lawyer by training, and still is, practicing my trade in a law firm in downtown KL. I always know that I have a knack for cooking, something which I incidently enjoy doing on my free time. I count Martha Stewart as my idol, and despite of my dayjob and 3 kids in tow, I still manage to attend pastry classes on weekends just so that I get my cakes right!

I think the time is high for me to take what I've always count as a hobby to the next level. A pattiserie is always on the draw card but for now, I am pretty much content with my home-based operation, selling made-to-order cakes and sweet treats. I infuse honesty in my baking as I always try give my best efford to all my dear customers.

So I would like to welcome you to Fairy Cakes by Lina. Perhaps you can give me the benefit of the doubt by placing an order now :)

Love, hug and kisses,

Lina...
