^sis kung medyo malaki budget, sa mason jars, super cute, then put ribbons and sticker ng celebrant sa taki. Pwede din yung small jars lang para mas mura.

[funky f]

Tnx for the idea, sis. Hanap nga ako small jars aside from divisoria, where can I buy kaya? Yung mura lang like p20.00, hehe...

San nakakabili ng red and green ONLY na M&Ms or Nips? Thanks!

Hi mga sis. May tanong lang dun sa mga nagsesell ng cupcakes.. Magkano ba ang normal cost nito sa market these days? Tsaka when selling cupcakes, iba-iba ba price nun depende sa klase (chocolate, vanilla, red velvet, salted caramel etc). Additional bayad pa ba un box o kasama na dapat un?

Just finished baking "Brazo De Mercedes". Success!

[funky f]

My first ever event was super successful (free naman kasi SIL ko naman)! The guests loved the Oreo cheesecake cookie I baked. Tinatanong if I sell kasi super super sarap daw. I was super kilig coz didnt expect na masasarapan sila ng ganun.

Anyway, natuwa rin ako coz was able pack it well. Nagresearch ako sa Pinterest tapos nagyoutube pa ko on how to tie ribbons, haha!

^^ sis pano mo nabake yung brazo de mercedes. Any tips naman. I tried to bake that before pero failed. Parang nagtubig siya, ewan ko ba.

^^I made the oreo cream cheese cookies as well. Personally I didn't like it, but it got rave reviews from kids and adults alike (pinamigay ko kasi sila haha). Pinatikim ng SIL ko sa officemates niya and they asked daw if pwede umorder. E hindi naman ako nagbebenta, baking as hobby lang talaga.

Siguro once meron na kaming proper oven I'll consider taking orders na.

ako naman nasarapan naman ako pero di ko masyado malasahan yung cream cheese.  too buttery for me.  when i adjusted naman the ratio of butter and cream cheese before, parang naging maasim for my taste so i stuck to the original recipe na lang.

@cutemama - sis sinundan ko lang to: http://www.pinoycookingrecipes.com/brazo-de-mercedes.html

make sure lang din na walang ibang mahahalo sa egg white kasi sabi nga kahit konti tubig or egg yolk daw mamemess up na. Tapos wag din ma-over sa pagmix. I think din natural lang na medyo magshrink pag nagcool down na sya. Nag ganun din yung sakin pero di naman masyadong lumiit okay padin siya. Saturday ko ginawa nakapagdala pa ko sa office ng monday okay padin itsura.

what do you mean nagtubig? yung yema part or yung meringue?

kung yung yema, kelangan lang talaga na maging medium consistency yung yema mo so non-stop stirring while cooking it. kung yung meringue part, possible na kulang sa pag-whisk yung egg whites. ang ok na consistency is kung nakakapag-form ka na ng soft peaks sa meringue mo.

try mo uli tapos let us know happy baking!

Sis plan mo ba magbenta? Meron food costing ang tesda, home bakers normally follow this basta dapat ilist mo mga nagamit mong ingredients. Food cost kasama na packaging dun.

food cost * 40% = overhead cost
overhead cost + food cost = total cost
total cost / yields = cost per serving
cost per serving * 1.66 = SELLING PRICE

Medyo late na when I started baking. When I was younger, hindi talaga ito sumagi sa isip ko at wala akong interes. But when my daughter turned 4, gusto nya kami mag bake. So I gave it a try.

So far, maayos naman at masarap naman nabe-bake ko. Be it cakes, cupcakes, brownies and cookies. The only problem Na diko pa nasolusyonan is the cream cheese frosting. Kahit anong recipe sundin ko, palaging nagiging runny. Hindi talaga sya tumatagal at babagsak talaga. Any tips na subok nyo na? Thanks!

[friendlyneighbor]

Same here sis. Still looking for a cream cheese frosting na naglalast atleast 4 hours sa outdoor set up. Tried once na nilagyan ko sya ng shortening, naglalast sya but not a fan of the flavor..

You can add unflavored gelatin. Dissolve the gelatin first and use 1 tbsp for every batch of frosting you're making ( the size of a kitchenaid mixer bowl)

Sis, pahingi ng recipe mo. I want to try it.
