I personally think alittle hint of lemon would be good in a cupcake with some lovely blueberry marbled on top. From the top it looked really nice.

As for the Fruitburst Cupcakes, they are packed with Cranberries and Raisins to give the fruity sweetness in these cupcakes. Cranberries are expensive over here in this part of the world. And the rich deep red color is very appealing.

Cranberries are a source of antioxidants and phytochemicals that may reduce urinary tract infections commonly in females and as anti-cancer agents. Cranberries are rich in Vitamin C, dietary fiber, and dietary mineral.

As for raisins, they are actually dried grapes. Raisins are sweet due to its high content of fructose, a type of simple sugar, and they are also high in antioxidants qualities.

My midnight part time job…

31 May

Just like many others having part time job on top of their full time job, I am not excluded too. I have a part time job and I have been serving my job for few months now.

Sigh… What to do? Life is tough now… with current high inflation and low pay job, I just need to find extra money to continue sustaining my current expenses and bills. After all, if I don’t work hard when I am still young and energetic, when else? He he he… Anyway, I gotta stop whining. Complains always make one person lethargic, don’t you think so?

Try to guess what is my part time job? My only hint: I usually start working late at night… Could I work as a:-

1. Strip club bouncer

Night Club Bouncer

2. Gigolo?

Hahaha… make your mind straight guys. None, of the above actually. My part time job is a “general worker” to my girlfriend when she starts baking late at night. My job scope includes…

1. preparing the utensils

2. mixing all the ingredients

3. do some light decorating and

4. wash and clean up and etc …etc… etc… (general jobs essentially)

Oh…for all the jobs that I do above…I don’t get paid. I’m just a “slave” working for my girlfriend just to have a piece of her cup cake. An hour job for 2 cup cakes… I know what comes to your mind… You guys must be thinking I am such an idiot to work for 2 cup cakes for an hour. But think of it that way, people are selling cup cakes outside for RM4.50 per piece. So effectively I am taking home RM9.00 per hour. I challenge you guys to find me such a good deal for a part timer :-) . I just need food, that’s all…

If my justification is not acceptable, just think of it this way…All are done in the name of love. The love for her and the cup cakes…hahaha.

Okay, cut the crap. These are some of the cup cake pictures that I took. All are freshly bake cup cakes:-
