For National day this year we needed a project to get us in the Singapore spirit of red & white! We created a homemade Watermelon Kueh… made healthier using brown rice!
It’s Chinese New Year again and 2014 is the Year of the Horse!
There are many festive treats available in Singapore at this time of year – cookie stalls are popping up everywhere. Some cookie fairs even have fancy set-ups that bake on site, so you can purchase them fresh from the oven!

Everyone loves eating during the holiday season! There is so much festive food… but it’s often unhealthy. However, we love baking cookies… so we transformed the standard with some fantastic substitutes and created these amazingly healthy (and cute) Coconut Sugar Cookie Cutouts!
We would like to wish everyone a Merry Christmas! We hope you all have a wonderful holiday season filled with lots of good times and happy memories! Thanks for reading about our adventures over the past year – there will definitely be more to come.

What a refreshing and happy way to start the year! We love it. Continue reading
