my first time~.



ya...this time was my first time to bake a cake at home for church as a cake for a special day..that is mother's day..
When i heard my mom said pastor asked me to bake a cake for the mother's day my first reaction was 'WAH'!! and totally got shocked..For me that was really a big mission, because i do not really have bake a cake like birthday cake before .Some more, i just learn to bake cake for few weeks in school only.I think i cannot do well in it, but my mom keep encouraging me try to do it..so, i heard my mom said and start practice at home when i got free time..
Last few weeks, the first cake that i tried to do was vanilla flavour cake, but i failed to make it. The cake not tasted good and very hard, i felt so disappointed. Althought already failed, but i tried to do topping, whipped the cream on the cake and do some decoration, By this i can practice my whipping skill..haha..
This was my first cake, actually i already tried to bake cakes over and over again until i am satisfy with that..
I am so worried that i could not bake a nice cake for this coming sunday..But finally, i made it!! i am able to bake a nice chocolate cake just the day before mother's day. I am so happy..
Well, i was follow the recipe that the people gave me when i learn baking in other classes. The recipe was very easy to follow, just few ingredients were needed.After baked the chocolate cake, it is the time to make some chocolate glaze for the topping. This is easy to made it to0..just need anchor whipping cream, dark chocolate and butter only then u have to cook it.
After the chocolate glaze was done, i poured chocolate glaze over the cake , let it drain for a few minutes and placed it in the fridge for some times let the chocolate to firm up before do the decoration on the cake.
I decorated the cake with my mom.Some is my idea and some is my mom's idea.We using white chocolate and dark chocolate for our decoration.It looked simple but looking nice..hehe..Like it so much..
Finally, our chocolate cake was done!!
On the Sunday morning i was very nervous,because that day my church members will give me comment about how was my cake tasted.
Well..luckily many of them said tasted good, what a relieve!!
they very support me to0..thank you very much!!
hope the continuous days i can bake more nice and tasty cake!!
