Homemade Achar/ Nyonya Acar 娘惹阿杂菜


Achar/ Acar is a mixture of pickled vegetables commonly served in Asian cuisine. It's generally made with different types of vegetables and fruits such as cucumber, carrots, pineapple, long beans, and cabbage, pickled in a well-seasoned vinegar concoction. It's an excellent side dish to increase appetite and goes well with greasy food such as nasi lemak and deep-fried food, it even tastes good on its own. During Chinese New Year, we serve Achar with prawn crackers and that's my top favorite pairing! ;)



The Achar recipe that I'm sharing here is a simplified version of Peranakan/ Nyonya Achar.

Monster Theme Birthday Cake [Customised Kid's Birthday Cake]




It's that time of the year again.... Every year, I'd make birthday cake for my boy. This year, for his 11th birthday, he'd requested a ClassDojo monster theme birthday cake. He printed and cut out 12 monster pictures that he and his classmates created via Classdojo and asked me if I could make a cake with all these monsters on it. Ohh he did mentioned about 3D, not just pictures LOL.... This is definitely not easy but challenge accepted! :D 



Handcrafted customised ClassDojo monsters fondant cake topper.

I started with the cake toppers, I'd made all 12 fondant cake toppers based on the pictures given, all handcrafted in 3D figurines. Every piece is unique because it's all hand-shaped, tedious work that I took about 8 hours to complete.



Handcrafted customised ClassDojo monsters fondant cake topper and a stand alone staircase/ wall.

Recently my boy started to love coffee, so I baked a coffee cake as base and decorated the cake with fresh cream frosting. I kept it as simple as possible as the 12 monsters were already very colourful. 


Handcrafted customised ClassDojo monsters fondant cake topper.

Besides the 6" coffee cake, I also made a mini vanilla cake. This idea came after the boy found a box of candy and asked if I could make pinata cake. I didn't want him to eat too much candies, so I made a mini pinata cake to place on top (where the pink monster standing) instead of using the main cake to fill with candies. 

Just 6 candies.... all for him.. :D

specially made for him.


When everything's ready, I let him decide where to place the monsters. Although there were some flaws here and there after he accidentally "touch" the cakes, overall we were happy that everything turned out well.

Look at the pink monster holding 2 candles....isn't it cute! :D
