Hi, 
this is my book about the 3 things  that matters to me the bake , love and life,

Im gonna start with bake, why? Because I love baking, I begin to like it when I was young, but because I grow up poor I thought I cannot experience baking In our own kitchen, I started to make pancakes in a simple ingredients such as flour eggs and sugar  and if I have extra money I also buy milk and margarine, just to satify myself that I can mix ingredients that connects into baking but then in our house we don’t have oven so I just cook it in the pan or steam and im happy with the result, I can see a texture its fluffy,airy,and delicious! So I begin to feel excited and  eager to make more and wanting ,wishing to get an oven and tryto  bake in our own kitchen, over the time I then start to put vanilla, and a flavoring like banana, chocolate and carrot and it works! , ofcourse theres also failure but It didn’t stop me from my dream to bake , I realize every failure that I experience in making those things it gives me so much learning and excitement,

One day my sister arrive from Singapore I know she can afford to buy a small electric oven so I asked her if she can buy 1 so I can bake for the family and happily she said yes, that day I was so excited I think that finally we can have  an oven! i can bake! It was a dream come true, so we went to the city  and we found a good oven, since then I start a real baking in our own kitchen  i practice a good chocolate cake coated with a ganache,  a red velvet cake, and a chiffon cake, it was very fulfilling when I heard my niece and nephew ‘ aunty its delicious’!  it makes me inspired to bake more cakes! Since then I begin to dream big ,I told myself I want to become a good baker some day! That dream im working on, I always watch cooking show or a baking videos online that makes me inspire and tell myself I can do it too, I practice baking and learned to be organize in the the kitchen,

Luckily I had the chance to study in the City , I took up Diploma in baking and pastry arts there I really feel like yey im going to be a good baker, I learned different types bread, cake, cupcakes,shortbread, cookies, entremets,petite gateau  all those things I learned as an introduction of my skills in the baking world, I also begin to like to build my own dream wedding cakes ,figurines using fondant,and many more, I realise the important thing in baking is to be precise in weighing   the ingredients and getting the right temperature in your oven, every oven in this world has different temperature so I suggest you to get a oven thermometer so you get the precise temperature in your oven  or usually getting the right temperature usually takes 15 to 20 minutes, theres also important thing I learned in baking, and that is to be patient, yes to be patient, because in baking you have to wait the right time, you have to plan , you cannot form or create a delicious dessert without patient,planning and right timing, sometimes  a recipe calls for freezing or chilling so this is the time to test your patient, so it is always patient…. I tell you im not really a patient person but in bake world I am very patient because I want my desserts to be Wonderful,  1 tip I can advise you is that when creating a plated dessert theres should be the  components, it should have 1 the main item example is your epic chocolate mousse ,2 is sauce like caramel sauce or any sauce you like just remember that it will also compromise with your main item,3 is the crunch example for that is crumble or nuts ,and 4 is the garnish,in this component you can use some vibrant color fruits like strawberry , or you can use herbs too, these thing is the few of many that you can learn in the world of baking and pastry,

I am very lucky that I was able to study Again in a prestigious baking and pastry school in the country , so yes i study twice about baking and pastry arts, this time I took up a 9 months advance diploma  in baking and pastry , plus ill have 1 month intensive training in malaysia , in this journey of mine, I learned a lot in advance level about baking and pastries, especially French pastries , some of my favorite topic is the plated dessert and wedding cake, its really important to practice what you learned because over the time you will improve and become a better in what you do,

.........I hope I inspire you to my life story series, until next time ")
