After receiving the baby shower gift from my friend, I became interested in the idea of baking my own fruit tartlets too.
Sometimes, we have to face the fact that having an interest does not equal to being an excellent baker. I chose the next best alternative to ensure that my fruit tartlets will be edible at the very least. I went to attend a baking class conducted by ITSI Baking Studio.
It turned out that fruit tartlets is not difficult to bake. My main difficulty is the decorating of the fruit tartlets with the limited resources that were given to us. Well, I do have to admit that I am also not a very creative person, maybe even a bit boring. I simply have not much idea on how to make my fruit tartlets look nice and attractive.
These are the fruit tartlets made by all the students in the class. They do look very nice right?
Finally! These are the fruit tartlets baked and decorated by me!!! I am sure they are not the best fruit tartlets you have come across in your life but do give me some encouragement since this is my first time. :p
Taste wise, I just find it so so only... Delifrance fruit tartlets is always the best. I guess if I am in the mood for fruit tartlets, I will not hesitate to just go there and get one to satisfy the craving. After all, a Delifrance outlet has just open up across my house. How convenient! Hehe...
I have been nagging to almost everyone I know that I should learn to bake but somehow it's all talk with no action. Most importantly, I have NO oven at home. So how am I suppose to bake without an oven. :p
I know, I know. This is just an execuse. There are also some no bake cakes or cookies available that I should be able to do. But what's the joy of making cookies and cakes when I can't bake them! Ok, ok... I am a girl that likes to talk more than taking action. Maybe that's why I am still a nobody today. Hai...
For a change finally. My friend invited me to her house for a baking session. Now now now, I can finally bake something! Yes!!! Finally!!!
I would have love to start my first baking session with something more normal. You know, something like chocolate chips cookies. As a matter of fact, my friend and I have totally different wave length. Haha... She felt that we should be doing something more exotic. Chocolate chips cookies are available everywhere and it's not like I can bake very nice chocolate chips cookies. Haha... Quite true... So here we end up with Earl Grey Tea Cookies.
Don't they look nice??!!! Hehe... I have to admit that I think they look nicer than they taste. Haha... But I will have to say it's really not bad for my first try!
The recipe is taken from Martha Stewart. Give it a try too if you are looking for some not so average type of cookies. Enjoy!
