This weekend is preparation week for the upcoming F1 race. I’ve signed myself up for a voluntary role this year, at the Singapore Grand Prix, and I’ve been assigned as a flag marshal (or what they call flaggie for short). It’s really exciting because it’s something I’d never thought I’ll ever do in my life, and now I’m doing it at 44 years old. Crazy, but YOLO. It’s going to be tiring, but I’m looking forward to the experience. So far so good.
I did another version of a ‘Frozen Cream Cake With Summer Fruits And Colours‘, this time with strawberries only instead of a mixture of fruits. I actually prefer the version that I did nine years ago for my mum. The cake looked a lot nicer with the different colours, the peach in the cake was sweeter and the crust at the top of the cake gave it a nicer texture too. This version has only strawberries throughout so it’s definitely lacking in both slightly.The strawberries at the top of the cake was a lot more difficult to cut through too!
I think I can bake buns well. What I do not know well enough is how to wrap them up such that there’s enough filling in the center to bite into once it’s baked. I always think it’s enough, but it always turns out to be pathetic. Like the one you see here above.
Puff pastries are nice to munch into, though the reason why I don’t like to eat them too often is because it flakes very easily so eating it becomes a very messy business, making it difficult to remain tidy and lady-like. Most puff pastries have boring fillings inside too, mostly potatoes, curry and chicken. Some have hot dogs; some have cheese hot dogs.
