Roll Stack Cake

On Sunday, Lan was so kind to buy me a silicone baking tray and a whisk (a mixer is a bit out of our pocket at this very moment!)... and so, at home, I immediately 'played' with my new toys to make a roll cake. Thinking that 15 yokes on the recipe is a bit too much for only two of us, I halved the recipe.
Voila! After a lot of whisking (that made my arms sore) and 15 minutes in the oven, my cake was done! It looked good, but a bit too thin... What to do? What to do? If I were to roll it, it would break to pieces, so, I decided to cut them to squares and stack them together and putting generous amount of 'meises' in between the layers.

Hence, it looked exactly like in the photo! Lan enjoyed it a lot and finished it not long after. I hope you enjoy the photo too! :)

Aside from my kitchen activities, I have been busy with my emotion going here and there...
  • With winter coming, my skin allergy (eczema) gets worse, resulting in lack of sleep and self-confidence issue :(
  • PhD work is eating me up as well, I am easily frustrated and upset for things that go far away from my expectation...
  • Been having swollen eyes lately... Did I stare on the PC screen too long?
  • Positively happy, the packet from Mama Papa arrived safely last week, I got a very cute panda doll from Mama, which looks so like a real panda, and we name him 'Po'! Hihihi... 多谢,妈爸!
    Along with Po, plenty of good food, seasoning, sunflower seeds (kuaci), some clothes I bought on Chinese E-bay.

So... forgive me for not updating regularly lately. My brother is arriving back from home this Friday, I am expecting some stuffs from my mum hehe...

Alrighty, back to work now. God bless you all!

Ps. As usual, please feel free to give feedback on the photo, Lan is very happy to accept any suggestions/advice on his photography skill. (Click on the photo to enlarge)

Hihihihi... jadi tumpukan cake donk judulnya :D
Awalnya aku juga rada2 takut ng'gulungnya, tapi ya cuek aja kalo patah ya resiko, pikirku, tetep kue lah walopun patah :)) Eh... ternyata 'gak patah tuh. So, tips buat laen kali kalo kuenya cukup empuk dan 'gak garing bagian luarnya/kering, cuek aja nekat ng'gulung.

Fotonya cekep :)
Pssst... makin berisi dong tuh lengan ngaduk kue gitu :D

kerna pakar fotografi ud komentarin fotonya, aku ga ikutan komen yak, mengingat klo motret aja hasilnya selalu blurr... hehehe...
tapi idenya boleh juga tuh di tumpuk2, mestinya klo ada creamnya ud bisa jadi mini tart yah...
btw, nge gulungnya harusnya pas panas2 ato mesti tunggu dingin dulu yah? *keik yang ud mo buruan bikin aja* hehehe...

vi3 said...

gpplah.. yang penting masih bisa kemakan.. hehehehee... tapi emang gampang2 susah bikin roll cake.. vi3 ga pernah bisa nggulung dengan sukses.. :D

veny said...

Wua ha ha ..
biarin deh ga jadi Bolu Gulung jadi yg laen ndak opo2 toh .. looking marvelous too !
Bener kata Since kalo kuenya cukup empuk n atas ga garing nekat aja di Roll , gulung nya PD aja tekuk dikit dulu spy yg paling dalam membentuk gulungan kecil padat baru lanjut gulung ... rolllingg terus sambil diteken2 padat , spy ga Prolll .
sok tau yah gw , pdhl malas bikin kue
