Chocolate Raspberry Tart & Raspberry Sorbet

I have been reading the blog by The Little Teochew here and realise, she is one super mum!!  It's not easy having to ferry the children to school, cook for them and at the same time, find time to bake and blog! 

So last wkend, tried baking her Warm Chocolate & Raspberry Tart (fm Chocolate Desserts by Pierre Herme, written by Dorie Greenspan).

The tarts were well-loved by my colleagues who have tried them, except some of them find the raspberry a tad sour and the seed stuck to their teeth:)  I personally feel that the pastry could have been better if I have blind baked them first.




And this week, I am left with some frozen & fresh raspberries so I decided to try out her Raspberry Sorbet.  

This is how the end product looks like.

 
Hmmmmmm........... how I love it..... Yummilicious!!!!!!

My Very First Post

Finally got the time to start this blog... thanks to the long weekend this week:)  All housework was done yesterday, leaving me some time today to start the blogging.

It's not easy being a working mum + no maid at home.  Weekend were spent doing all the necessary cleaning!  Luckily I have the 2 kids to help out! 

So whenever I have the time, I will start my baking spree!

For the very first post, I will "squeeze" in the baking/cooking for the few months... and thereafter, I shall try to do it weekly...
