新年快乐, 情人节快乐!

inally, it's our chinese new year tomorrow, and for the westerns' it's Valentine's Day!
Here's wishing all chinese : 新年快乐 恭喜发财 万事如意!
And all non-chinese, Happy Valentine's Day and happy holidays!

These were the final bakes for this week before I temporarily "retired" for the long weekend holidays!

Fruit Cake with a "平" which stands for 平安 which mean peace or safe.



Heart-shaped Orange cookies, intending to distribute them on the 1st day of CNY with my angpao! ;)




Finally, bite-size buns which is chewy and cute. I brushed some honey on top to give it a sweet taste. Eat it on its own, or dip it with chocolate. What I'm going to do is, I'm going to sandwich bak kwa (barbeque sliced pork) in between. Oooh...yummy!

    Jane, the bite sized buns are a marvellous idea! Not only do they look cute and pretty, they are perfect for the little ones. Pop into the mouth whole! No crumbs! :) I am very sure I would love the orange cookies. ;)

    Hi Ju,
    Yup, good bite-size for the kids, and the (lazy) adults too! Orange cookies is also in conjunction with the new year! :)
