Dark Chocolate Brownie bark
With the holidays coming up, there will be a lot of gathering within families and friends. When there is gathering, food will always be involved. Sometimes it’s hard to think about what to bring to the gathering. Recently I’ve scrolling through social media and there was brownie bark that was trending. I decided…
Honey French Toast
There is a famous bakery in London UK called Hachi and they make these really popular honey butter toast. I saw so many variations of the honey butter toast until I saw someone on Chinese social media decided to put a twist on french toast with honey. This honey french toast does not…
Pumpkin Basque cheesecake
I love fall weather. While it was quite warm in September in Ontario, October has been cooling down. This means I can pull out my sweaters for the fall. With fall reaching its peak, I’m reminded of the fall colours and foods associated with fall especially for Thanksgiving. In the past, I’ve always…
Pineapple Bun (菠萝包)
Pineapple bun is a staple in any Hong Kong bakery. When I was young, I loved going to these Hong Kong bakeries, grab a tray, tongs and pick all the breads you want. At the time it was about $0.50 to $0.75 at bakeries. My go to bread was a red bean bread,…
Korean Mochi Bread
Update: I actually made some changes to the recipe. Originally I used tapioca starch for the Korean Mochi Bread but I found Cassava flour which worked so much better.

Pumpkin Pancake (南瓜饼)
Pumpkin pancake is one of my favourite dessert. It can be easily made and stored to be eaten at a later time. While pumpkin is more available in the Autumn, if you are able to buy in year round, you can make this anytime. It has natural sweetness so you don’t need to…

In my teen years I refuse to eat anything that was made of white flour. Everything had to be whole wheat. As I got older, I stopped caring about eating everything whole wheat. I started to crave white bread. While I still buy whole grains loafs, once in a while I crave for…
Peach Jam Cookies
While with peach jam, it can be simply used a spread on toast but there is some much you can do with the peach jam. One of the channel I follow, Nebokgom, she made an apple jam filled cookies. I thought to myself I should make peach jam cookie. This recipe for peach…
Dorayaki (Red Bean Pancake)
I have another recipe to use the red bean paste. This one is pretty well known dessert from Japan called Dorayaki. It’s basically red bean paste sandwiched between two pancakes. If you know Japanese manga series Doraemon then you know dorayaki is Doraemon’s favourite food! What is Dorayaki? The modern dorayaki originate from…

This was dacquoise, particularly Ang-Butter Dacquoise. This is made with dacquoise cookie with red bean paste and a thick butter slice. I…
