Fairies, fairies and more fairies

Last weekend we attended by cousins 5th birthday party. There were 20 kids age between 2 to 10 running around the house. Something that I have to look forward to?!?




























I was commissioned by my aunty to make some sweets for the kids. What did I love to eat when I was that age? Ofcourse....chocolate crackles and honey joys. Being of asian background and growing up in Australia I was always jealous of kids that had mums that made these types of sweets for them. Instead I got the asian type cakes e.g red bean and sesame balls which I hated. It's not her fault she didn't know the english language and therefore couldn't follow an english recipe.

So I was determine that my cousin would get chocolate crackles and honey joys for her birthday which she did. A bunch of them as well as some cupcakes with butter cream icing.

BTW these days I love asian dessert and have learned to even make them myself.

Ciao, Bananas
