Pandan Layer Cake

I have been wanted to bake this Pandan Layer cake for long time ago as this is my favorite cake of all time. Sometime i will want to buy even 1 slide of it when I visit King’s confectionary cake house, but due to ‘kedekut-ness’ I will not buy it because I think I will be able to bake this myself 1 day. :p

If you ask me what cake I prefer for my birthday, I will say Pandan Layer Cake. But I will not get this cake because it looks so normal and not for special day. L so sad…. Somemore people will think I am old fashion because ask for Pandan Layer Cake. Apa ini!!! :p

I had failed in baking sponge cake tremendously and countless time. L sigh… finally I know my method was wrong as I will mix everything together can whisk it ‘kao-kao’ :p hahaha… My girl friend (gf) told me not to whisk the oil as it will put in more air and instead just fold it in with spatula. Hehe.. now I know why my batter got bubble and it is like someone is breathing under neat the batter… hahaha

Now all my batter is ready and put into oven with so much hope because the batter looks so different from my previous batter and looks promising :p

After 30mins, I remove the cake from the pan (I poke so many hole just to make sure it is cooked :p ~ I should have take a photo.. haha) Then my mom, my sister and my brother all standing beside me while I preparing my ‘knife’ ~ String tied on 2 chopsticks. When i turn the cake over and all of us shout together ‘WAH, THIS TIME IT IS COOKED’ and clap hand … walaueh :p everyone is so happy that the cake is FINALLY cooked. hahahahaha

‘knife’ ~ String tied on 2 chopsticks.
Thanks to my gf for this useful tips J as I got a smooth and even 3 layer of cakes. J Thanks gf.

I am so happy and quickly I ask my brother bring me to the baker supplied shop to get a UHT coconut milk (no choice as I dare not ask my dad to get a fresh one from market because I have no confident that my sponge cake can be successful or not, scare it got waste). Then I prepare my Pandan custard and at 1st I thought it will fail, but I do not want to give up as I finally got my cake ready. I stir and stir and stir the mixture and multi-task my both hand. Finally the cake is assembling. J I leave the cake overnight and slide it after I reach home from work the next day. J and I am 100% happy because the cake looks so prefect to me… wakakakakkaka

Nothing is happier when my girls ask for 2nd pieces…. I love it. :D

This is kind of long blog but I really happy that my sponge cake and my favorite Pandan Layer cake is successful. :D hahahaha
