Homemaker by choice and a passionate cook by heart. An aspiring cook who actually never knew anything about Cooking until i became a mother myself.With Motherhood came the responsibilities as well and this was the turning point in my life.I started to learn the ABC's of cooking, taking help from my mother and my MIL. And time just flew. I spread my wings higher and higher. With my love for excellence and innovation, i stepped into a world of homecooks with my exposure to Cookpad one fine day on the social media. And there was no looking back since then and i have not only shared recipes here on this wonderful platform but also have made some lovely friends as well. Today iam successful because of my hard work, dedication and loads of good wishes of my family and my kids in particular.

    Singaporean Pandan Cake Singaporean Pandan Cake

    This is a really popular dessert in Singapore My friends didn't know that it could be baked at home, so they were overjoyed. It's an everyday snack in Singapore.You can make this even without the pandan essence, in that case use green food coloring and coconut essence instead by mixing 2 teaspoons of coconut essence and adding the food coloring a little at a time. 80 g of sugar makes a cake that's not very sweet at all, so add more to taste.

  • A picture of Lemon Sour Cream Pound Cake.

    Lemon Sour Cream Pound Cake Lemon Sour Cream Pound Cake

    I learned to make pound cake in high school home economics class in the 1960s and fell in love with it. Made one a week for my dad and siblings. I'd bake it in a loaf pan and serve slices topped with fruit and whipped cream. It's probably been 50 years since I last baked one, and I was really excited to make this one with sour cream and the tangy lemon glaze. Lemon is one of my favorite flavors, and this delicious cake really hit a home run!#GoldenApron23
