Cake, cake & cake ?

Today is my little nephew one year old birthday. The little boy has grow up already. His birthday is just one day different from his aunty's birthday. I remembered all my 3 nephews birthday, cos the dates are easy to remember. I have only seen my little nephew once and that was when he was still a little baby, at the age of 2 months old (during my previous trip to Bintulu in November last year). I really wonder how he looks like now. Kids really grow up fast.

Well, we can't separate birthday celebrations from cakes. These are some of the cakes I had yesterday :) The Black Forest Cake & Walnut Cake. It's something sinful, but it's xin fu/hang fook (幸福) to indulge in these once in a while, right? It all depends on how you view things, or is this what we called as... playing with words ???

Black Forest Cake

I still prefer the "original" black forest cake which I had in Lake Titisee (nearby Black Forest) in Germany few years back. I was sua ku previously.. Never knew the existence of a real place called Black Forest till I visited Germany :D

    Looks so yummy!!!

    Funny thing, there's no black forest cake in Germany, hahaha...

    Black Forest = Schwartz Wald.
    Cake = Kuchen

    "Schwartz Wald Kuchen"

    Nowadays, cakes may not longer contain the sponge cake element.

    some are ice cream, some are agar, and some just cream

    SA,
    Besides knife, Black Forest is famous for Cuckoo Clocks too. I didn’t buy any during my previous visit :D We just pay a visit to the factory and the shop outlets and shoot few photos, and not forgetting eating the black forest cake :)

    Thanks for the birthday wish.
