The Cheesecake was fantastic! I love the thick crust with the light and smooth filling.

I’ll order more in the future with different flavours !

Hi Karen
Beautiful bake, i’m new to this hobby and it’s really addictive cos I cannot afford to put on weight and only rely on people around me to eat whatever I have been making. Share your sentiments re strawberries, do you sweeten them or just use them in original state/taste? They are really sour! Lots to learn from everyone, hope you don’t mind me asking questions. TIA

Thanks, Jerry!

Adeline: Yes, the strawberries can be sour sometimes. I don’t sweeten the strawberries at all unless I’m making a strawberry compote for the filling.

Thanks Karen! Another question, did you add on the sponge fingers after baking the cake or are they non-bake cakes? I tried a non-bake cake and lined the edge with sponge fingers. I had also lined the cake pan with aluminium foil and that was stuck to the sponge fingers, which weren’t even dipped into any syrup or cream. Is there another way around this sticky problem? TIA again!

hi karen,

I was wondering about the cake with lady fingers, is that a mousse cake? sponge layers? is it made with chocolate?? can you make this cake for diabetics? and last question… what size is it coming in? 10 inch?

thank you

Jerry: Thank you!

Adeline: I added on the sponge fingers after baking the cake. You might like to try lining the pan with baking parchment instead of aluminium foil.

Magdalene: Thank you for your enquiry! Yes, I do take orders, but I’m current fully booked until 20 Dec. Please check here for updates on fully booked or unavailable dates.

lital: It’s not a mousse cake. It has sponge layers. The insides are different on both cakes. The description can be found here under Cakes. The cakes range from 9 - 10 “, depending on how much the cake shrinks after baking. I’m not sure how to make it for diabetics, other than to reduce the amount of sugar. I have not tried baking with sugar substitutes.
