1st Birthday - Bubble Party!

4/22/2017

0 Comments

 
Oh, my little Monkey! This little man turned one! I can't believe it's been a year now. My sister wanted a bubbles theme, so it was a chance to try out a new skill. I made gelatin bubbles that could be placed on top of the cake.

The first batch I made had too much coloring in it, and didn't look enough like bubbles. I still ended up using them to top off the cupcakes that I made (even though I don't make cupcakes, but for my nephew, I'll do anything!) The second batch had just the right amount of coloring, but I forgot to oil the balloons before dipping them in the gelatin, so getting the balloon out was a little harder than the first round. Check out the video from the first round of bubbles below.

​It was the biggest mess I ever made in my kitchen, but the product that came out was just absolutely beautiful! Monkey ended up playing with the bubbles more than he did smashing his cake!

LNY: Year of the Rooster

Happy Lunar New Year! More important than Thanksgiving in my family is definitely the Lunar New Year. This year, I went to hang out with my mom and her sisters to make little sweet peanut, sesame, coconut turnovers. 

The little pouches of sweetness look like little gold nuggets once fried up, like old school Chinese currency back in the Qin Dynasty (sycee or yuanbao), and the sweetness inside is to wish the receiver sweetness and good things in the year to come.

Here's a photo of the completed turnovers, as well as a video of my aunt's mastery in making the beautiful folds.
