Profiterole Tower

I have had some really nice pastries and cakes during this trip to Australia and profiterole is definitely one of the good stuffs that I should specifically mention here. The one that I had was indeed quite a big size but delicious especially the custard cream fillings. It is indeed an eye-opener to see or able to taste some of the famous delicacies there. I was deeply in love with strawberries flan, walnut bran muffin, turkey bread, mudcake pizza, macadamia mango cheesecake and cranberries pudding.

I am not surprise that people nowadays are more appreciative when comes to good food and we notice more and more people are having unique sense of taste buds. We hope Mr.Baker's is able to meet the high expectation of customers and hopefully some days in future, our dreams of venturing into overseas market will come true.

New Cakes!!!

CLASSIC AMERICAN CHEESECAKE
This is a must-try. The cheesecake is soft and creamy and the chocolate mousse and ganache on top goes perfectly well with the cake. More importantly, it's not sweet. Highly recommended by Mr.Baker.
WHITE CHOCOLATE FUDGE
Extraordinary smooth and soft white chocolate cream covering the whole moist dark chocolate fudge cake with special thick cream fillings.

Thank you very much!!

Mr.Baker says:-

I am happy everytime I get to sell a cake be it a fresh fruit vanilla or just a simple chocolate sponge cake. It's not about how much profit I made from the cake but it is customer's satisfaction which I value more. A customer just made my day today. The way she described our cake (fresh fruit vanilla) is simply astonish. It goes like this "the layer cakes laid in between the fruits are compact but soft, the special white cream covering the whole cake is refreshing and more importantly, the overall sweetness of the cake comes from the fresh fruits itself". This is the first time I received such a comment from a customer and it has truly made my day. A big "Thank You" to Cecelia for being our loyal customer since Day 1.

Say "NO" to Dough Improver

Do you know that all our loaves, buns and pastries are without any dough improver which is perhaps one of the most important ingredients used in most bakeries? A dough improver is an ingredient used to speed up bread production, improves bread textures, reduce the rate of bread staling and prolong the shelf lives of bread, just to name a few.

Is dough improver good or bad as far as health is concern? I have done various searches through the internet and thus far, I have yet to find any official report or research which confirm the potential harm it may cause to our body. However, there are lots of health concerns going around regarding the use of a dough improver especially the inclusion of enzymes in them.

Due to the exclusion of dough improver in our bread products, you may notice that the expiry dates of our loaves are very short (3 days). If you consume it on the 2nd day, the textures tend to get slightly hard and stale. We used to receive various complains about our bread such as the textures and short expiry but after we explained the reasons to our concerned customers, they begin to appreciate it. We are very thankful and happy to see that more and more customers are starting to appreciate our bread and at the same time, we've learnt that people are getting more health conscious these days.

At Mr.Baker's, we emphasize:-
1) Bread - no artificial textures, homemade ingredients and generous fillings.
2) Cake - no emulsifiers/stabilisers (such as ovalette), less sweet, quality ingredients used.

Lastly, a big "Thank You" to all our loyal customers for the continuous support and have always believe in Mr.Baker's Bakeshop. We promise and pledge to continue in delivering the best and healthy products to you.

Swan Puff


Instead of putting the foc swan puffs in a plain plastic container, we have made it a little more interesting. What do you think?

Wednesday, 5 May 2010

Mr.Baker says:
The most ordered cakes last year during Mother's Day was our Fresh Fruit Vanilla (about 90% out of the total cakes ordered). I can still remember very clearly that our chef and the decorator had to work almost 48hours non stop to complete the order. This year will be of no exception. We have received quite a number of orders so far and it is more complicated compared to last year due to the specific design we promote this year. I can foresee another sleepless nights again for Jean.

I am just wondering, "The Ferrero Indulgence" and "Fresh Fruit with Fondant Flower", which design do you like better? Kindly give us your comments in the chat box. Thank you for participating.
