More chocolate…

flowers

Flowers this time.  These were made using another of the $1 ice cube trays I got from IKEA.  I also have a starfish one – won’t post pictures of that though as I realise these are not the most exciting things to read about.  Hopefully I will attempt some proper baking in the weekend.  Ciao.

Ahhh! We’re under attack!

So, this is what happens when you combine Wilton green chocolate melts with a silicone space invaders ice cube tray.
It was a bit fiddly getting the chocolate into parts, like the little feet things these guys have, but it was very easy to pop the chocolate out once it had set.

La Couronne

La Cour

I popped in here today (after visiting the Auckland Art and Craft fair held at the Auckland Art Gallery – which was excellent btw).  It is a cute little cake boutique / bakery on Lorne Street in Auckland city.

My review is: YUM! 
There are lots of beautiful pastries and sweet things to eat.  They make fancy cakes too.  My brother and I purchased the stuff below to try and it was delish (excuse the photography tho – the pic  is taken on the roof of my car with my crappy phone because I didn’t have my camera on me and I couldn’t wait to eat).

And, that is Oreo cheesecake in the background of the photo.  Mmmmm mm.
