Chocolate Balls - Mint Flavour

The order came from JJ's friend. She is expecting her first baby on the 22nd of November and she emailed me that before the due date she wanted to have my chocolate balls. That's very cute :-)

As she doens't consume any alcohol, I offer her some alternatives to make the taste of chocolate balls richer and she ended up with mint flavour choice. Ehm...very good choice!! I love chocolate mint too.

As I am preparing the order, I got text message from my neighbor. She wanted to order cake as she would have some guests on the next morning. I told her I didn't have much time anymore as I had to do another order but she insisted. Then I told her that I was making some chocolate balls, she was interested to try and then she ordered some.

I presented the mint chocolate balls in a plater for 50 balls. Let's imagine the taste of chocolate cake combine with chocolate ganache plus mint flavour in a ball ehm....it's heaven!

Sold by Rp 100,000 per plater.

A text message from JJ's friend after tried the mint chocolate balls from Joris Kitchen (in bahasa) : "Sudah diterima kirimannya...Makasih....ukurannya imut banget hihihihihi...Enak mint nya berasa....seger...." (The package has been received....thank you....the size is small and cute....great taste of mint...fresh...)

Premium Chocolate Steamed Brownies

I am glad that finally I could do something more with my steamed brownis to make it prettier. I owe so much with steamed brownies, without it there won't be any Joris' Kitchen for public.

The chocolate steamed brownies edition is rich with chocolate taste. On the top of brownies I put butter cream and dark chocolate topping to make the taste richer and to make the look nicer, some red cherries could help.

I received a neat testemony from Uwi Yuli's nephew, Fabian (in bahasa) :

Many thanks to you Fabian! :-)

Birthday Cup Cakes for Veda

I received the order on Thursday night from Mila, Veda's mom. I thought I wouldn't be able to do it, but thanks to my dearest best friends ; Mbak Yuli, Efi, Nilam Sari & Mbak Vita who have supported me. Finally I could finish the order in time.

The color theme for Veda's birthday cup cakes is blue as her first name is Azura, means Blue. Besides using blue color for the butter cream, I also put blue mickey mouse tape to give more blue sense for the packing.

Mila was happy with the cup cakes and the next day I received sms from Mila saying that guests were happy with the cup cakes.

Here is Mila sms in bahasa : "Sukses Mbak. Tamunya seneng, tapi gak tega mau makannya...Thanks ya Mbak. Salam dari Veda buat Kak Ruth & Jo."

You are very welcome, Mila...many thanks to give us a chance to be part of Veda 2st birthday party :-)

Steamed Brownies (Brownis Kukus)

Steamed Brownie was a starter in my baking world. I remember 2 years ago when my soul was soo thirsty of being back to baking but the condition was I don't have any oven yet. Then I was introduced by a best friend about steamed brownie. Good thing is as an Indonesian every one has traditional steamer aka "Dandang." Well, just give it a try then. I tried making steamed brownie many times until finally I got the right taste and texture. I also modified the original recipe to something that comes out a bit different and it was just wonderful because right now my Pandan Cheese steamed brownie become a favorite one.

I also got a great support to continue being serious in learning more about steamed cake by my dearest friend that I consider as my dearly sister, Uwi Yuli, that gave me a book of steamed brownies recipe with its modification as my birthday gift.

Last week, I made some steamed brownie for a dear friend, Peppy. She wanted to taste my steamed brownies before deciding to order more. I am glad that my steamed brownies satisfied her, and she came out with more orders.

Here are her orders :

2 packs chocolate steamed brownies

2 pack Pandan Cheese steamed brownies

18 cups Pandan Cheese steamed brownis

Even though now I already have my oven and doing more bakings, I would never forget do keep receiving steamed brownies orders because Joris' Kitchen is started by Steamed Brownie :-)
