Sunday baking for Monday office morning tea - I actually didn't manage to get a photo of the cake before my locust colleagues started cutting it, so I present to you instead screenshots of THEIR Instagram feeds - my favourite thing about baking for my office is how all my colleagues instantly Instagram, Snapchat and Boomerang my cakes with such genuine excitement and glee. ![]()
In this case, strawberry, coconut meringue and mascarpone cake - a mammoth enterprsie; 24 eggs, 3kg of strawberries, 1.5kg of mascarpone..phew.
And for those with more of a meat-tooth than a sweet-tooth (like me), savoury Suzhou-style mooncakes, with proper hot water and lard pastry and chopped pork belly, ginger and white pepper filling.
