The Lady of the Bakery Shop smiled. The girl had carried four slabs of butter to the counter, 2 in each hand. Probably buying goods for her mom. What a sweet girl.
The girl then walked back to the fridges and came back with FOUR more slabs of butter.
The Lady of the Bakery Shop was aroused and began to eye her suspiciously. Was this a store raid using the innocent butter girl as a distraction!? The girl didn't stop there. Next came cupcake papers. Of FOUR sizes. Big, medium, medium, small. Italian sponge fingers. silver draces. Peanut butter....... Probably trying to conquer the world huh.
As the ratio of 16 year olds haunting the store consistently leaving with half the shop was probably at an all time low, the Lady was rather overwhelmed as she counted the goods.
Finally the lady seriously doubted the girl's sanity. "Girl, what are you doing with so many things!??" "Oh Aunty I just like to bake *insert big beam here*"
Well as my bill sent her happy endomorphins, she proceeded to let me know how I should really count my cost to avoid putting wasting my time to make just a few miserable cupcakes. Rats! Costing for sale always brings me to my most bashful self. Oh Pai Seh Ness will you never leave me?!
Well yep, I had to spend because it was someone's birthday and she ordered BIG cupcakes for her friends (talk about generous! But it makes it hard for me cause she just ordered 10. Man, how do you cost so little!?? But as a birthday favour I accepted). So began the humble journey of.......
The Cupcakes with an Identity Crisis These BIG muffin-brownie-cupcakes (yeah these babies had a major identity crisis! But I'll classify them as cupcakes just because they're the golden word today. I wonder what the next baking craze will be though) were baked for that loveleh layday.
It started with this:
then this:
.......and finally you turn em into THIS of course!
ahem! I forgot to let the cupcakes cool before icing em, therefore the cream dolefully sank just a wee bit on the first few!
If this one doesn't look too aesthetic, it sure makes up for its SMORGAZMIC TASTE! Seriouslyyy. When it was hot it'd melt in your mouth.
And that is all! Not as great as I wanted them to be but I had assignments piled up to my head! Didn't make too much profit, but I covered costs and she had a really great day. Happy birthday!
