Blogging world gave so much courage inspiration to me that today i can dare to try my hands on shaped cakes. In last few days i have learned so much about baking and decorations with my own experience. Yesterday was my younger sis and kids birthday. I baked three cakes for them. First time i tried my hands on doll cake for my daughter and a bat ball cake for my son. one more chocolate cake for sis and my office.
Today i am here with the cake which i made for my own birthday. Yes today is my birthday. I will post my other two cakes in few days as i wanted to add my this cake to Amy's Agar Agar Contest. I made this cake and icing with agar agar powder. Both came out so well. Cake was so airy and whip cream got stiff peaks within 10 minutes. I was so happy with the outcome.

Delicious Chocolate Pudding

Chocolate Pudding
Hi Friends,
I am here with one more pudding recipe. Call it dessert or pudding you will end up licking your fingers. Its so chocolaty and creamy that you can't stop yourself finishing whole bowl yourself. I was not having any chocolate dessert/pudding in my blog. You need hardly few ingredients for this yummy pudding. 
I made it night and and left it overnight in fridge. Next day first thing i did is i took it out and checked that its fully set or not. It was fully set and so tempting that i was craving to dig in. But first i took photos and then tried first spoon and finished 1-4 of it. I was just lost in the heaven. Can you imagined it was early morning everybody was sleeping and i was relishing this pudding. I know its funny and bit awkward also but people like me who has a very bad sweet tooth can understand my situation. Can you believe my kids were asking me to pack that in the tiffin box somehow i assured them that it become runny and will ruin your bag so they can have it after coming back from school( they were afraid that will be finished by that time :). So friends try it and let me know what your kids asked about it.

Ingredients:-

Chocolate - 50gm (you can use chocolate chips or 2 dairy milk also)
Vanilla essence/rose essence-1 tsp
Milk - 1 cup
China Grass-1/2 tbsp

Method:-
Ingredients

Heat chocolate and milk in a pan 
(keep flame medium and keep stirring continuously)

Add essence

give it a boil

add china grass and mix well

boil again, it will become thick

pour in mold,let it cool down and then put in fridge

fully set

remove carefully in a plate

i decorated it but it become ghost so removed 

First Cut

YUM YUM



Notes:-

  1. You can use coco powder instead of chocolate but the creamy texture and real chocolate flavor may be missing then.
  2. You can add any of your favorite essence but i tel you with rose essence it was just heaven.
  3. You can also add some nuts or fruits in it.

HOPE YOU WILL LIKE IT

Fruity China Grass/ China Grass Pudding with Fruits

Fruity China Grass/
China Grass Pudding with Strawberry and Grapes
 Hi Friends,
One more adding in china grass category. I was having few fruits and wanted to make some pudding with that so that kids can have it. I was having few strawberries and grapes in my hand. So my eyes lit bright when i saw a packet of china grass laying on the shelf. So i thought CHINA GRASS FRUIT PUDDING? why not. I grabbed my fruits and went ahead.
Bright color fruits peeping out of the pudding attracted them so much. even i was amazed that strawberries were so much tempting it seems as they are inviting us to eat them. First bite was tasted by me and i was so much impressed with the combination of vanilla with fruits.
Its totally upto you that which fruit you wanted to add in this pudding. Add anything it will not disappoint you. But i will recommend you to add grapes, strawberries, kiwis as it will make best combo. Try it guys and see your kids eating fruits with great pleasure.

Ingredients:-
China Grass- 1 tbsp
Vanilla essence- 1 tsp
Water- 2 cups
Fruits - 2 tbsp 

Method:-
Grab your ingredients

heat water in a pan

Add china grass powder

Boil it twice or when it become thick 

Add vanilla essence

arrange your fruits in mold
(i want to make a bright base so did this, its not necessary, you can simply add them in the china grass mix)


Pour china grass mix and add remaining fruits
and keep in fridge for 30 min to set

Fully set

 Carefully remove from mold
