Rush Rush

I know I have been missing for too long... for reasons I will explain in my later post.

For now, I wanna share this raspberry cake which we had for my 3-yo niece's birthday a fortnight ago!

This cake was made in record time. I started baking on Saturday morning, and in between I took Sheen to his swimming lesson and cleaning him up afterthat. It's a wonder I managed to get everything ready when daddy came back to fetch baby and I at 11.30am.

The cake is a 3 layer sponge cake with fresh raspberry filling:

My brother told me his girl loves strawberries, and I was suppose to make just that. The last time, I bought the strawberry 1 week in advance which gives plenty of time for them to turn moldy. So this time, I am smarter: i happily went to supermarket on thursday... All in all, I went to 4 supermarkets in my precinct... Can't believe that no one has any strawberries on the shelf!!!

In the end, i bought raspberry... haha, at least the colour is the same :-)
