dorayaki.




doraemon approves!

lime sponge cake.

holding up the tiny plate near the door for natural light.
it's been a rainy weekend,
so sunlight doesn't shine much in the house..
you can kind of see the little lime zest pieces in there..
big ol' slice of cotton.
no fat at all except the fat of the egg yolk.
i love making these cakes because i don't have to wash the equipment with soap afterwards because there's no oil or butter,
just a good rinse.

coconut red bean paste gelatin.

what a bad picture!
we sliced it up at night for dessert,
no natural light.
and i hate flash.
the thing didn't last (it was all nom'd down) until the next day for me to shoot pretty pictures of it.
look at that suspicious looking dollop of red bean paste on the tip.

2 layer coconut,
1 layer red bean paste.

chocolate & vanilla swirl cookies + poop cookie + reject marbled cookies.


i had intended to make it vanilla outside and chocolate inside,
but after rolling out the dough,
i found out i had more chocolate dough than vanilla.
the higher ratio of the chocolate dough resulted in....
poop, highlight of the batch.
i mean, what else do you do with leftover chocolate dough?

last but not least,
the marbled cookies.
the rejects of the bunch.
