I walked around aimlessly in my kitchen, breaking out in cold sweat, while melting my chocolate. I think the sweating part should be partially because the kitchen was hot with the heating.

I couldn’t sleep the night before… well, not exactly because I was nervous for Monday but it was that tiny, pity-looking, lizard that kept me awake half the time. -.-”

(I’m so living in denial)

Anyway, what is the BIG deal about Monday?

I had an interview with RazorTV.

Around 1 month ago, the host emailed me asking for my interest to be part of her 6 episodes desserts programme on RazorTV. I thought it was a privilege thing to be invited to speak about Delcie’s Desserts. So, I agreed.

In the end, I realised it wasn’t that difficult to speak in front of the camera after all because the host, Eva, made me feel really comfortable speaking to her. It’s like how Eva convinced her soft-natured self to speak boldly in front of the camera. “I pretend that the camera is my friend”, she said. So I must have pretended that Eva was a friend. However, true enough, she does sound like an old-friend whom I can connect with immediately without trying too hard.

Anyway – I’m so glad the interview was over but the anticipation just kicks in again for tomorrow where I will appear in video on RazorTV website!

I hope my video doesn’t promote negative viral *hush hush* (Ris Low’s Video). I just realised that the interviewer in the video is Eva!

Hmmm~ I hope I don’t turn out like that. I’m crossing my fingers real tight now and I will probably tape them together before I head to sleep after this.

In fact, I can understand Ris Low’s situation because there was no CUT and RETAKE for the interview at all! Once you did it and said the wrong thing, that’s it. Hurhur! Perhaps, Ris Low was really cold and nervous when the RazorTV camera was rolling. I guess that might had caused her tounge twisting moments. So people, please give her a break and let her have her Kit Kat.

Just last Friday after my meeting with Catherine, a home baker which is interested in being part of our community baking project, I recieved this mooncake from my supplier.

When Catherine was sharing about her experience in making flaky mooncakes during her younger days, I was already dripping saliva thinking about my favourite mooncake with double yolks . __

I bet it must be the Law of Attraction that draws the mooncake to me. It was indeed very kind of my supplier to visit me with a box of 4 beautiful flaky mooncakes although he did mentioned he has 100 boxes of these mooncakes given by his client but it’s impossible to finish them all by himself. LOL! So in the end, he has no choice but to give them away. May he has good Karma for doing that.

If I’m not wrong, this should be the Cantonese version of mooncake. (please correct me if I’m wrong).

Besides being mesmerised by the soft colours and flakiness of the pastry skin, I couldn’t wait to rip knife off the pack and start slicing for yolks!YUMMY!

I wonder if you have heard about this myth which if you manage to tie a knot on the cherry’s stem using your tongue, you are a good kisser.

Unfortunately, I haven’t figured out how to be agile with my tongue. The most I can do it is either soak it with sugar (because of all the tasting I have to do at the bakery) or simply do the [:P] action while pulling silly faces in front of the camera.

As for the kissing part, that is for Kannan to know. Haha!

Anyway, using the same popular Kanten Jelly mix which I brought back from Japan, I’ve improvised on the recipe and repackaged them so that they both taste good and look good too.

All the Jellies will now appear in shot cups (as shown in the pictures) with a Maraschino Cherry within every cup. So this way, I can assure you that you will have plenty of cherry’s stems to practice your tongue skills.

Each box comes with 12 cups of Kanten Jelly with Maraschino Cherries, which means you’ll have 12 cherry’s stems to practice with. And all you need to pay is $18 per box. A totally value deal to perfect your kiss especially for those first timers ;P Hehe!

Good luck!

Teachers’ Day is here once again. After being in the bakery business for the past 1 year, it has been a great learning experience altogether!

I fight, I cry, I grow, and best of all, I survive it all.

If without some of the teachers in my life, I can never be here today. This is a dedication to my greatest teachers throughout my entire 25 years of breathing air:

To my dearest late Mother, if without you, I wouldn’t be in this world. If without your support, I wouldn’t dare to start my business. If without your smiles of approval, I wouldn’t have the drive to carry on. I’ve been missing you so much. But I know, you’ll continue to smile upon me from the ground of heaven up there.

To the late Ms. Chang, my Food and Nutrition teacher in Kuo Chuan Presbyterian Secondary School. Thank you for all the harsh teachings, fingers smacking, and ear screaming of corrections that you had given during my 4 schooling years. If not for you, I wouldn’t have taken up the interest in baking.

To Mr. Ferdinand, my Visual Communication teacher. You have invited me to the path of creativity and shown me all the wonderful ways to make things look pretty. If not for you, I would not have pursue advertising that had given me so much more to learn in marketing a brand and business.

To Justin P, my ex-colleague and friend. As quiet as you are, I know you have a wild side of imagination and experience. Thank you for accommodating to this ignorant young girl who bugs you for copy all the time. If not for this wise “old” man with a mustache, I will never have the insights to the world of writing and have such wonderful description of my desserts with courtesy from him.

To Huw, my ex-boss, my friend and a closet Christmas pudding baker. A funny, localised angmoh that never fails to tickle me with his Singlish, had given me so many creative ideas that help build this community baking project to the next level. If not for your push, I wouldn’t have started the call to the home baking industry. You’re like my personal business mentor who has given me lots of courage, ideas and practical sums to calculate on paper each time I meet up with you – always ready to fish out a paper and pen to jot down the important details.

To Terrence Tan, my ex-creative director, who forced me into flipping magazines and pushing my limits every time. Your teachings back in the agency was short, yet significant for me to mentioned. I remember you once sat me down and asked me what is “art direction”. You told me that “art direction” is coordinating people who have the skills and knowledge to assist me in making things look its best. My role is to guide these people to make things happen for me from the start till the end because my job is to make sure that I don’t leave the project until I called it ‘perfect’. You told me that a lazy person can never be a successful art director because in our spare time, our eyes are still constantly working. With these, I kept it with me.

To Francis, my friendly and ‘always there for you’ lawyer who told me he’ll be by my side to help me become successful. This is a man worth mentioning because his sharing and time was generous. A lawyer who charge $500 by the hour, he has given me far too much to even repay my debt. However, he never asked for a dime. Instead, he is always solving with my problems and headaches with my business structure and business relationships. I admit I am a very gullible person who tend to think that this world is such a wonderful place and everyone is nice and pretty at heart. Hence, eventually leading me into situations which are difficult and problematic to solve. But without fail, you always pop up at the right time to follow up with my difficult situations and help me curb them all. Phew~ An insurance has never gave me more than a peace of mine compared to your presence in my business. So this is why I recommend business owner who wants to build a successful business to speak to him because it’s less costly to prevent a situation from happening before it happens.

Last by not least, to my dear Kannan, a full-time teacher at work with tons of papers to mark everyday, student to scream at when they misbehaved and never-ending admin work to deal with after all these teaching.  You gave me so much more than just dinners and love. Despite your tiring day job with students who don’t listen, you still have to listening to both my grumbles and problems even after work. Instead of complaining, you’ll just smile at me and gave me advices that calm me down to move on. Still, you have never discourage all my crazy ideas and big dreams.

—

Woah! I felt like I’ve just went on stage to receive a Grammy award or something. Haha!

Nonetheless, a teacher to you may not need to be a teacher who teaches in your school. He or she may be someone worth mentioning in your life and would deserve a special treat from you just because this person has changed or influence your life for the better.

From now till 10 September 2009, to commemorate all the teachers, every purchase of Delcie’s Desserts Fantastic Four gift set, will only cost you $10! That is $2 off the usual price!

Place your order today to send a smile to all your teachers who truly deserve to be remembered.

With love,
Delcie

It’s the time of the year again where we party till the house rocks and until the day breaks. It’s a jolly holiday this season and we would like to wish everyone who has supported us and helped us over the past 6 months a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year!

This month, Delcie’s Desserts will be organizing something special for our friends who have helped us unconditionally during these hard times. They may be those that helped us during our monthly events, those that gave us alot of contacts and lobangs, those that helped us behind the website scene, those that helped me edit my bad English, those that has always been there for suki and me, those who answered my frantic calls for helped and last but not least, those who believed in us.

Thank you to all of you! You guys should jolly well know who you are because I’ve just sent out a private Facebook event invite for our little get-together on 28th Dec 2008. Each of you are supposed to bring a “SWEET” Secret Santa gift for that secret someone. Don’t forget!

Let us close this wonderful year with a toast and welcome the new year with our Delcie’s desserts. =P

A little something made specially for everyone who is dear to me. Enjoy if you’ve received this little gesture of mine.
