Barbie Cake for Maudy

What a nice surprise knowing that some body from Cayman Island has found my blog and put an order of barbie doll cake. It's mbak Wiwi who lives and working in Cayman Island. I know about Cayman Island only from the movie so it's nice to know mbak Wiwi. From mbak Wiwi I am getting to know more about Cayman Island :-)



For the base cake, I made triple chocolate cake and chocolate butter cake for the barbie skirt. All in pink and fondant icing. Mbak Wiwi sent me some pictures of barbie doll cake designs and asked me to combine the design. So I came up with this...I would say I like the combination of pink color, don't you think they are pretty?



I took picture the details of the back side of the barbie gown as mbak Wiwi likes the butterfly design a lot.



Thank you very much mbak Wiwi...glad to know that the family in Kebayoran loves the barbie cake.

(suppose to be) Barbie Mariposa for Chacha

It was a nice surprise to receive a call from mbak Tuti Magdalena. It's been 2 years Mbak Tuti becoming Joris' Kitchen customer. After checking my posting about Barbie Mariposa for Caca, mbak Tuti ordered the similar one for her daughter that has same name as Devi's nama. Chacha...pronounce the same with Caca but different spelling.



The difference is Devi provided the butterfly wings and mbak Tuti asked me to make it from edible image. I was thinking of stereoform to form the butterfly shape but mbak Tuti prefers using chocolate. So I tried to cover the edible image with chocolate and it becomes too heavy to be put on. I was kind of mad at myself but the no time anymore to make the new wings using stereoform.



I'd like to apologize to mbak Tuti that I have dissapointed them as the barbie cake turned becoming Mariposa without wings.



Anyway, thank you very much mbak Tuti for your loyal order and as usual, mbak Tuti is a vanilla butter cake lover so the base cake for Chacha's birthday all is deep yummy vanilla butter cake. As mbak Tuti doesn't really care about fondant, for the base cake I used butter cream icing instead.

Black Forest Cake for Antien

Order from Mbak Antien for her own birthday last Saturday. It's a 22cm of black forest cake. One of the classic cakes that last forever and most people love it.



This black forest cake is also nice for Lebaran gift. So if you are thinking of lebaran gift cake, black forest could be the choice and absolutely you can order at Joris' Kitchen. Joris' Kitchen always provides the halal cakes, snack and pastry.

Thank you mbak Antien, happy birthday and GBU!

Vanilla Fruity Cake

Good morning everyone!
I am getting more excited and positively optimist with my online stor. I am thanking God for His blessing, He is just always awesome and so good to me. Thank you Lord! And to my family and friends who have been very supportive and caring, I love you all dearly. Just can't live without you all!



This vanilly fruity cake is ordered to be sent this morning to Pejaten as a birthday gift. Vanilla fruity cake is just a perfect choice for a gift. A three 3 layer of vanilla sponge cake with vanilla custard and blueberry filling, whipped cream topping and fresh fruits. Absolutely yummy!



Wanna order the same cake? email me at joriskitchen@gmail.com or text me at +62 817 985 2792 or +62 838 900 70703. Thank you and have a blessed day!

Barbie Mariposa for Caca

Order from Devi, a wonderful mother that has really amazed me! hahahaha....I can tell that Devi and husband really loves Caca and always do everything to make her happy. I was so excited knowing that Devi was really well prepared for Caca's birthday party on Sunday. Since a few month ago Devi has already sent me a message that she would order a barbie cake for Caca and they chose Barbie Mariposa.



Devi even prepared the barbie doll by herself and it's the original one that cost the same as the cake! If I usually mutilated the doll to be put on the cake, this time I didn't have a guts to do it. The original barbie mariposa was too precious to be mutilated, so I just made a whole to stand the barbie mariposa. Decoration using full fondant and as requested everything should be major in pink with a little bit of purple and white. I added some yellow and green to make it more fascinating.



As Caca loves chocolate, so everything was chocolate. I made triple chocolate rich cake for the base cake and double chocolate cake for the barbie skirt. As usual for a safety delivery I never combine between the base cake and barbie cake. I asked Devi to do it by herself later on right before the party starts. It's a very easy thing to do and so far my customers could do it by themselves.



After the birthday party Devi sms me and said that everyone loves the cake. The chocolate cake was delicious and just perfect, matched with their taste. So glad to hear that.

Thank you Devi!

Flower Basket for Yanti

Order from Kathrin & friends for their friend in BSD, Yanti. It's a flower basket and you know what, I was totally forgot how to make the basket. Glad I remember that I have a decorating book that has a picture of how to make the basket, even though it's not step by step book but it's pretty good to refresh my memory.



As Yanti is a big fan of chocolate, I made her 22cm round of triple chocolate cake. For the decoration I mixed it between butter cream and fondant. For the basket I made chocolate ganache butter cream, it's yummy. I just love this flower basket, looks nice and just perfect as a gift cake, don't you think?

Thank you Kathrin and friends :-)

Mini fruit pie birthday for Eyang

Order from Evi in Aussie for mother in law birthday. Evi ordered 1 set mini fruit pies with a birthday wording from chocolate.



As her in law doesn't like sweet stuff, I made different kind of vanilla with not only cutting the sugar but also added some cheddar cheese grated. It tasted more yummy and cheesy.

Thank you Evi for your order, glad that Eyang Kupu loves the fruit pies :-)

Chocolate Cake

There are so many kind of chocolate cakes. Anytime I made chocolate cake I almost always got a new idea of how to make it different.

When some one said, "up to you" actually it can be good or headache hehehe....The mood is one factor. When people said "up to you" and we're in a good mood then no problem. Now imagine that you're not in a good mood, not 100% fit then people said "up to you"...for me, I would prefer to go back to my hide under my blanket and continue sleeping rather than finishing the cake, hahahahah!



It's been 2 days I only had about 2 hour sleep and that's hard. Last night I was like loosing my mind when doing this chocolate cake for my dear best friend, Wenny, whom I would have lunch with this afternoon. I was kind of got bored with any kind of chocolate cake I've ever made so with a bit rushing of time I decided to combine the vanilla custard and ganache for the filling then covered the cake with full ganache and pouring some white shreded white chocolate to give it a little bit more color and taste.

Hope Wenny and family would like this cake, if not then just not making the same kind next time, hehehehehe....just make it simple, right.

*need a little nap badly....*

Mini fruit pie, crunchy crust with vla vanilla and fresh fruits...seems like this mini fruit pie is a must snack item as it's always on their list.



Chocolate brownie



Deep fried tofu with vegetables and sausages



Macaroni schottel in cup

Mbak Tri...thank you so much!

Curry Cheese Cookie

The second cookies that I made yesterday for Ervin was Curry Cheese Cookie. I started to make this cookie about 2 years ago and people love it. Last year I decided not make this cookie because didn't have much time and energy to do it. This year, absolutely this cookie will be on my Lebaran cookie list again.



This cookie tastes unique. A combination between parmesan cheese, cheddar cheese, butter and curry powder.

Oatmeal Cookie

I love to bake but I am too lazy to bake cookies! I think cookies give me more effort to do rather than a cake hehehehe....but thank you to Nilam Sari that always inspires me to love baking cookies more :-)

Ervin and I have been good friends since high school and always difficult for me to say NO to her hehehe...Ervin is living in Jeddah, Arab Saudi, at the moment, and she often ordered some cakes to be sent to some good friends in Indonesia. Recently she asked me whether I would bake her some cookies and I said NO! But she is very persistent to keep asking me to do what she wants, and finally I could not say NO more to her.



The first cookie she wants is Oatmeal Cookie. I used the recipe I received from Nilam Sari and using her baking technic to bake this cookie. I almost give up on this cookie as the baking method seems have taken the whole time I have only for baking this oatmeal cookie. But you know what, it's worth!! the cookie turned out just perfect and soooo crunchy. Thank you Nilam Sari!!

Learning from the oatmeal cookie, I think I am ready for Lebaran cookie order now hehehehe....getting more excited about Lebaran cookie. This oatmeal cookie will be on the list.

Carrot cake with cheddar cheese topping

This is another new speciality from Joris' Kitchen that has received good respond and compliment from our customers.



Carrot cake is one of classic cake that every one would just love it. I have made carrot cake before but it seemed not the one I wanted it. Last Monday I received order from mbak Mita, recommended by mbak Susi Burhan, thanks mbak Susi! Mbak Mita ordered a carrot cake for her son's 1st birthday. I was thinking that I should make different kind of carrot cake, I want it to be moister and tasty, so I read some different kind of carrot cake recipes I have including the tips. Mostly the recipes are pretty much the same until I found out some additional tips. There are 2 tips that can help our carrot cake moister. Substitute the butter or margarine with salad oil and add some apple sauce or crushed pineapples to the batter. I did the two ways, and yes, it turned out marvelously! I just love the tenderness and moist texture, besides by adding some crushed pineapples and lemon juice, they absolutely enriched the taste!

I used cream cheese for filling and frosting then generously addres shredded cheddar cheese to the cake. Yummy...yum...yum...!

Wanna try or wanna share your happiness with others by enjoying this one? you know where to go to order :-)

Cheers!

Sliced Cakes

It has been 2 days in a row that I had sleepless night. One thing I feel tired but the other hand so excited as my loyal customers are soo good. Once they knew I opened my kitchen again after the vacation, orders came even for the last minute confirmation ones.



This one was the last minute order from Jessy, my colleague. 150 sliced cakes. The order was confirmed yesterday at 11AM. Got home earlier and tried my best effort together with Nepi to finish the order.



Finally by 2:30AM this morning we finished the order. I made 75 slices of chocolate peach cakes and 150 slices of steamed strawberry cheesecakes.

Thank you Jessy for the order.

Tonight...will be another sleepless night for doing mbak Mita's order. Good thing to know that tomorrow is election day in Indonesia which also a public holiday. After giving my vote in the morning, I would be able to sleep thru the day :-)

Cheddar Cheese Cake

This is a new speciality from Joris' Kitchen. I call it as cheese cheddar cake. How to describe this cake?



This is a type of cheese cake but I use steam method instead of au ban marie in the process. Very rich and moist....melted in your mouth. Combining the cake with cream cheese filling and topping then pouring it with shreded cheddar cheese. If you call yourself as a cheese lover then you should try this one!



This was my first order after returning from vacation. Ordered my a best friend of mine in Jeddah, Saudi for a dear friend in Indonesia. Thank you Ervin for your order!

Thomas & Friends Birthday Cake for Shalia's 2nd Birthday

Another Thomas & Friends birthday cake for Shalia's 2nd birthday. It's a girl that loves Thomas more than barbie or other girly things :-)

Happy 2nd Birthday Shalia....GBU!

Thomas & Friends Birthday Cake for Yafi's 3rd Birthday

I really enjoyed playing with butter cream again, it's kind of fun :-)

Thank you Bob for your order, love to Yafi and the rest of your family, GBU all!

Hotwheels circuit race

The second theme that given by mbak Santi was the Hotwheels circuit race that made from a number 2 cake shape.



As I don't have the number 2 pan, I made it from a 24 x 24 square triple chocolate cake that cut down to be shaped as a number 2.

Again, I received a very nice compliment from mbak Santi that made me speechless. Thank you very much mbak!

3D Doraemon Cake

It's a repeated order from mbak Santi before I left for vacation. Mbak Santi gave me a challege to make 3D Doraemon cake. It was really a challege! but I finally managed to get it done even though not the perfect one but I am pretty happy with the result.



The basic cake was strawberry cake as requested. There was an accident during the delivery that made me so dissapointed as I have put so much effort on this cake but the cakes arrived with some cracks on it.

I am so blessed to have a customer like mbak Santi who was really calm on that situation. She gave me compliments rather than complains. Thank you very much mbak Santi, God bless your sweet heart.
