Now that Anthea is in morning school, I have to plan her breakfast. To me, breakfast is a very important meal for the day, especially for school going children and working adults too.
There are simple options like – bread, cereal and cornflakes. To add varieties to her choices, I would add waffles, steamed buns and muffins for her breakfast. In the morning, before Adrian leaves for work, he would have breakfast too. So I am actually preparing for 2 of them.
Gone were those good old days of Childcare centre breakfast. Now it’s my own preparation.
My fridge is stocked up with lots of eggs/ham/bacons/tuna and cheese because these are essential items for simple sandwiches and eggs dishes.
Last week while shopping for grocery at NTUC, I came across a Wing’s Chocolate Moist cake pre-mix recipe package. I read through the instruction and found that it was quite easy. All I need to add to the premix are eggs, butter and water. I bought a packet to try.
Yesterday afternoon as I had some extra time on hand, I decided to bake the cake.
After mixing the premix in a bowl with the ingredients, I used the electric mixer to give it a better mix, as stated on the instruction. Then I put it in the oven and baked it for about 30 minutes. The cake turned out very, very nice. This is the first time I am very satisfied with the baking. I think the new over is justifying it’s value too... : )
Anthea had a slice of the cake for her tea break after her afternoon nap and she said it was delicious.
Our breakfast was the Chocolate moist cake which I warmed up while preparing Pizza for Anthea’s snack box.
As the cake was quite big, I shared ½ of it with my parents. This morning I received a compliment SMS from my 大哥 and he said “the cake is getting better. Can open bakery in 2 years”….haha. I confessed to him that I used a premix recipe, so it’s really not my credit…. : P
Now that I get positive feedbacks on the cake, I think next time I will try their other flavor. Or I should start looking at my cake recipes again…hee : P
Just read that one of my blogging friend - Clement was warded in TTSH and went through a minor op. Hereby wishing Clement a Speedy Recovery !!!

so far my sponge cakes are all not successful, turn out either dense or hard. Maybe shall try out this brand of premix when I have the mood to bake again. :) But my boy doesn't like chocolate cakes (though his sister eats practically all sorts), did you see if this brand has othe flavours like strawberry, blueberry, raspberry?
Hi BS,
Yeah, i had the same experienced with my old oven. Too hard to too dense.
I took a look at this brand for cake, they only have choco,butter and sultana cake. No strawberry,blueberry or Rasberry.
