MrFaiz kindly bought me some fresh fruits a few days ago.

I was thinking about making some quick dessert using those strawberry, raspberry and blueberry. I smiled when I thought of chocolate. Who wouldn’t kan ;)

Apart from the chocolate vanilla pudding, I have something else that I would like to share with. There will be photos of my new baby in the kitchen.

As there are quite many pictures today, please, bear with me :)

I wanted to prepare a rich chocolate pudding, added a thin layer of my favorite cookies crumbs, arranged another gorgeous layer of the fresh fruits and finished it with a dollop of delicious vanilla cream.

Awesome!

 

The chocolate pudding was the easiest dessert ever. I made a batch, easily served 4 people.

If there’s no vanilla cream in your freezer, don’t be worried. You could still enjoy the creamy and melt in your mouth sensation of the pudding, just on it’s own.

I added 1 generous teaspoon of my organic vanilla in the pudding mixture for a greater vanilla smell.

Everybody loved it.

Now, I would like to share my excitement in the kitchen with my new baby, a set of 16 pieces Mix and Match Colorful Cutlery.

They just arrived in Kuopio a few days ago :)

I often see food bloggers from USA and Europe use beautiful cutlery set for their food photography. The idea of mix and match colors really caught my eyes. Then I was thinking, maybe it’s a good idea to buy one as a present to myself.

I got too excited holding them for the first time.

I love the fine quality of the stainless steel and gorgeous prints on the cutlery arms. They are just as beautiful as I expected :)

I bought the set for £19.99 from Strawberryfool.com, an online shop based in UK. They offer beautiful choices of kitchen and housewares and many other stuff in the website. I paid additional £8 for delivery cost and it reached here in 1 week time.

They deliver to most countries including Malaysia. Siapa yang berminat boleh cuba :)

Happy New Year everyone!

      Thanks very much for your suggestion. I am not a professional photographer or food styling either, but I can of course share my little experience if that would benefit others too :) . I’ll find some time to prepare and make that happen, hopefully :)
