Sugee Cake



My aunt explained to me that the sugee cake has Ceylonese origins and was concocted up by the Burghers of Ceylon.  It's a really nutty, buttery and wholesome cake.  The ingredients include butter, semolina and almonds.  So yum!

National Day Cake

My Aunt patriotically made a National Day Cake for a charity event so it was eggless. But then even her vegan eggless cakes are divine.

Cupcakes for Her Pink Party



I am so lucky. My Aunt made some gorgeous cupcakes again. This time for our 'Think Pink' party where everyone wore pink. I love the butter cupcakes with the pretty pink icing and greedily devoured two of them in one go. There goes my non-existent diet. Let's just say this is all part of my new orgasmic diet where I just eat anything that's really good and avoid bad food that wastes my precious calories.





Aunty Chelli's Cupcakes with Floral Design





My cousin's home from Perth and her mum/ my aunt made some lovely cupcakes as a welcome home treat.  I'm so lucky to have an aunt who is such a great baker.  She's actually a primary school teacher by vocation, but I think she's a baker at heart.

She whips up the best Indian and Ceylonese dishes too.  I hope she reads this so that I get to indulge in my gluttony and share photos of cuisine from our ethnic group. I am very particular about my calories and won't waste them on just anything, but I love anything that has her magic touch.

You just can't stop at one with her delectable cupcakes.  The buttery cake was moist and the creamy icing, pure heaven!  I am sure the rest of the family who missed out on this lot, will be hoping for a new batch soon. Sorry for taunting you with the pictures.
