Philip Island & My New Love.

More photos from Eugene's camera!
*******
I used to be quite an anti-macarons person,
have always wondered why is macarons sooo popular.
HAVE TRIED THE ONES IN SG AND IT SUCKSS. ok at least to me. tooo sweet.
I have always thought people like it because it's pretty. (like that horrendous icing on the pretty cupcakes. eews!)

It does look very pretty... a perfect gift.
if you have been following me on

there was one entry whereby I mentioned how tempted I was to bake it after seeing all the pretty picture....
AND.
the very next day (no i did not bake it), I went over to
and got MYSELF MY FIRST YUMMY MACARON!!
PISTACHIO MACARON*
look at how moist it looks on the inside.
the chewiness is just right. doesnt stick to your teeth. its really yummy.
the pistchio ganacheeee.
*
the day after (or two days after? i can't remember),
it's chocolate macaronsssss!!
and i got the vanilla one too :)

yeeeep. yummy desserts make me a happy girl.
except that calories. damn the calories.
shall share more about Aussie's sweet delights in my next post! Till then.

a post dedicated to.. GANACHE

Ganache, South Yarra
a place for my favourite hot chocolate..
really you should try it if you're here in Melb.. especially if you're a hot chocolate.. or rather, chocolate fan.
even if you're not, its really worth a try!
bf is REALLY NOT into chocolates.. but he loves the hot chocolate from Ganache
*
the warm atmosphere really lightens the mood while you sip your mug of rich hot chocolate, letting it slides down your throat. the temperature prepared was just right, and it definitely will not burn your throat.
(err. i think my old fringe is making my face chubbier)

bf admiring the chocolates..
truffle mousse cake.
the light chocolate coating is awfully smooth. and the whipped mousse inside of the cake is really light and fluffy. there's this thin moist layer of cake which adds to the mouthfeel. oomph.
it's really awesome!
ah.
FINALLY...
PRESENTING...
need i say more?

p.s. it's Meringue.
was too lazy to edit the error.. initially Macarons to me is any italian cookies made with whipped egg white. and yes. its Macarons. not Macaroons.. a commonly mistaken name for that.
