As for my kids' daddy, he requested for orange pound cake - he loves pound cake :)
That's great cos I have some oranges sitting in the fridge still untouched
Here it is....I made this cake before - recipe is from HERE
As yummy and delicious as before, especially with a cup of coffee or tea :)
And I also baked a heart shaped chocolate and strawberry bread
Recipe is from HERE
I divided the dough into 2 - one mixed with 1 tsp chocolate paste, and the other one mixed with 1 tsp strawberry paste (I kneaded each in the breadmaker for 5minutes til the color is even)
I rolled each dough to long thick strips - I arranged the chocolate dough outside and strawberry inside (I used heart shape pan)
Egg wash and bake in preheated oven of 180degC for approx 15minutes
Brush with margarine while still hot
Mmmm...the heart shape inside does not look like how a heart shape supposed to be huh? *grin*
But I personally still find the taste a lil too plain so I spread some raspberry jam or nutella - YUM! :)
See the bottom picture below, I cut it like a slice of cake hihihi....
I just wished my dad were here with me so he could taste them too
Too bad he's not in town for now :)
I'm submitting this hearty bread to Aspiring Bakers #8 June'11 Bread Seduction hosted by Jasmine from The Sweetylicious at this LINK
I love pound cakes too ! Your pound certainly looks so butterly rich and soft in texture. And there's a very innovative way of having dual favours in a heart shaped bread !
