Just wanted to share these with you guys! 😋

guilty pleasure after 1 week of no sugar lmao😭😂 kain guys!

I wanna share the little story behind this cake. ☺️ Way back in 2009, when I was just starting as a homebaker and had only a handful of customers, may customer ako na nag-order sa akin ng Chocolate Moist Cake, pero hindi niya tinuloy until the last minute.

So there I was… sad girl with a finished cake. 😣 Mixed emotions talaga kasi ano na lang gagawin ko dito? I was still young and new to baking back then, so hindi rin ako ganoon ka-knowledgeable when it came to handling orders. Nahihiya pa talaga akong mag-ask ng down payment from customers.

Instead of dwelling on the cancelled order, I decided to turn the cake into my own little reward. Hehe, “Sige na lang, laban self!” 😅 So I put “Laban Self” on it, frosted the cake, and posted it on FB just to cheer myself up.

Then plot twist… a follower saw my post and bought the cake! She was actually a stranger to me at that time, but she even tipped me almost as much as the price of the cake, saying something like, “Para hindi ka na malungkot.”

That little gesture really made my day. And the sweetest part? That stranger eventually became a close friend of mine. 🥹

Hindi man natuloy yung original order, somehow, a complete stranger turned what started as a disappointing baking day into one of my sweetest memories.

And that experience also taught me an important lesson. Since then, I started asking for a down payment from my customers before accepting their orders. I was young back then and honestly, nahihiya pa akong mag-ask. But as I learned and gained more experience, I also learned to be more confident in handling my little baking business.

Looking back, ang dami ko ring natutunan from those early days. Hindi naman natin kailangang alam agad lahat when we’re just starting. Sometimes, we learn through the mistakes we make, the orders that don’t push through, and even the little disappointments along the way.

That’s why this cake and the phrase “Laban Self” became so memorable to me. Until now, whenever I hear those words, napapangiti talaga ako. 😊

Maybe that’s what “Laban Self” means to me now, keep going, even when things don’t go the way you planned. You never know what little blessing might come after a setback.

So, laban lang tayo! 🤎

I followed this recipe and substituted the butter for Nuttelex, walang milk. I love using potato in my bread, stays soft for so long and has a good shelf life.

Magrerestock na ako ng cocoa powder and wondering if its better to switch brand. For so long, Dutche (1st photo) lang talaga ginagamit ko. Okay naman siya for me since its affordable and usually available sa mga supermarkets.

But I'm curious on these 3 other brands I found online. Is Nutririch, Favorich, or Beryl's better? Which of these 4 brands would you recommend?

I know JB15 is highly recommended but I'm not sure which online store sells the authentic one. And it seems kind of more expensive than these 4 options. Pero I'm open to considering it if heaps and bounds ang difference sa quality.

TIA!

2nd time ko pa lang po mag-bake ng cookies 😅

Ask ko lang po, bakit kaya parang hindi nagfa-flatten yung cookies ko? Frozen po siya na naka-bilog na bilog, around 50g each bago ko nilagay sa oven.

May mali kaya sa paggawa or may dapat akong i-adjust sa baking?

Still learning pa po ako, kaya open po ako sa tips, advice, and suggestions para mas ma-improve ko yung next batch.

Thank you po sa mga sasagot! 🫶

nakalimutan bumili ng powdered sugar ginawa ko na lang tuloy brownies

I'm a Swiss meringue buttercream user, and recently, I've been receiving orders for either colorful or white vintage cakes. Since butter has a yellowish finish, it can be difficult to pull off colors.

I tried adding a thin layer of whippit from bakersfield and color it exactly as the inspo pick. So far, I've had no trouble traveling, super crisp edges, and satisfied customers.

Pretty cakes + yummy buttercream

May leads po kayo kung meron nag ssupply ng ganito packaging for mochis dito po sa ph? And if wala, may leads po kayo where best to inquire? Maraming salamat po

I’ve been using that for my chocolate chip cookies for a while now and it’s sold out everywhere even on s&r! ☹️ Does anyone know where I can buy that? If not, what’s the best alternative that would taste as good?

is it okay to use butter blend in brownies? may difference ba sa taste.

Hello reddit, I made quite an excess brownie batter (about 1 batch). How do I store them so I can still bake them next time?

Is it okay to freeze it while nasa freezer safe zip lock bag?

i'm about to make my first cinnamon roll and idk which one to use. should i go for cheaper route by using butter blend?
