I have developed very bad habits during the MCO. Eating in front of the TV every evening is one of them. Previously that was confined to Sundays only.
Another thing is, I also want to eat what other people eat. Like pandan layer cake. So I walked to TK@Damansara Uptown and bought one cranberry bread (for my partner) and one pandan layer cake for me (he does not like this sort of cake).
That evening after dinner I sat this box of cake on my coffee table.
I peeled off the layer of plastic.
hmmm... looks nice and smells very pandany. Someone was very interested.
She was eating her kibble but she came over right away. Do cats eat cake?
Look at that. So I applied my usual tactic of shoving the cake under her nose, hoping that she would sniff find it unsuitable for her.
But she took a swipe at it with her paw. Which meant that she contaminated my cake. So I had no choice but to part with that piece.
I put it in her plate and she licked at it enthusiastically. I left her and came back to my cake.
This cake is very light and easy to eat. Very nice pandan flavor. It was barely sweet which was good but I feel it should be a bit more sweet. This is after all a cake and a cake has to be sweet (but not too sweet). So fussy, eh?
My cat, the greedy fatty bom bom, obviously can't eat the cake. She just licked it until the cake was soggy. I threw it away.
In the meantime...
... her owner, also a greedy fatty bom bom finished the whole cake. And not only that ....
Magnum Almond heh..heh... See I told you I developed bad habits. This better not be my new normal.
Luckily my cat did not like the ice cream. She just turned away after giving it a sniff.
I've tried RT before, not TK...or not that I can remember. I had almond that day because I wanted to buy 3 macadamia salted caramel but I picked one almond by mistake. Post on ice cream in my blog coming up real soon.
ReplyDeleteIncidentally there is an RT a few doors away from TK!
DeleteOh good. U tried tk pandan layer cake so now you can go Aeon Supermarket and buy the pandan layer (jelly layer) cake at the bakery section if it is available there and compare. Any RT Pastry near you? Can go try their Pandan Layer cake which is more flavourful (a bit sweeter) than TK. Hehehehe, trying to tempt u. Me so jahat, ya?
ReplyDeleteI have been looking for it at Aeon but so far don't have. hee..hee.. yes, you are tempting me. There is an RT a few doors away from TK.
DeleteHahahaha, Girl Girl tried to save u by eating the whole cake at one go by swiping at that piece with her paw so u had to give her lick n then throw it away so u eat lesser of the cake. How is the sweetness of the magnum almond for u? I find it sweet so I seldom buy it after having tasted the flavour. Actually all magnums ic are sweet. Just that those interesting flavours distract me from the sweetness so the sweetness is bearable n covered by the other unique or some people say weird flavours that they cannot accept.
ReplyDeleteI find all the Magnum sweet but can tolerate. Among the ones I have tried so far, I like the Classic best.
DeleteGuess you like the vanilla taste of the classic.
DeleteSo u threw the cake away together with the kibbles in her plate or keep the kibbles?
ReplyDeleteJust the cake.
DeleteHow did your partner like the cranberry cake from tk? I haven't tried that yet. I bought banana cake loaf instead for my spouse cos that is the flavour he likes - banana cakes or banana chocolate cakes.
ReplyDeleteIt was cranberry bread and he likes it.
DeleteOh my. Pandan layer cake and ice cream too!
ReplyDeleteI'm jealous!
Don't jealous. Go and buy and makan..makan...LOL!
DeleteOh, barely sweet did you say...that means it's a cake I can possibly eat! ;) When you said you sat the box of cake on your coffee table, I thought uh-oh, she's gonna finish the whole cake all at once...lol. P/S: Cats don't eat cake...hahaha! :D I see your Girl also eats Whiskas brand of kibble (like Cookie previously until he turned his nose up on them) besides the wet food pouch.
ReplyDeleteThe guy who taste tested all 5 Magnum ice cream said the almond is the nicest and least sweet one of all the flavours (and by that I meant the least sweet among Magnum, not in comparion to some other brand, coz one reviewer said...if it's not sweet, it's not Magnum). You'll have to eat the rest of the flavours you bought before you can decide which one you like better...or none at all (because of the sweetness). ^_~
hah..hah..you know me so well! Now I know cats don't eat cake but I bet she will still ask for it if she sees me eating.
DeleteI find all the Magnum ice cream sweet but I can tolerate it. So far I like the Classic but honestly I am not too crazy about ice cream on a stick. I still prefer the ones that come in a tub. I promise I won't eat the whole tub hah..hah...
Pandan layer cake!!!! Gonna buy tis again soon....i m so tempted to eat again.
ReplyDeleteLOL! Sure, eat lah!
DeletePandan Layer Cake + Magnum Ice Cream, I wish I have the courage to eat like that, even though I eagerly do this! Maybe one day when my stress goes up to the maximum level, I'll do that!
ReplyDeleteLOL! I must not do this again. Next week I diet! LOL!
DeleteMy tummy grows smaller now, maybe due to MCO. Now I having hard time finish a bowl of kolo mee!! Lol.
ReplyDeletePandan cake, yum yum. Vi like that. But none in my family like it so I dont buy and get to eat it.
So good! Mine capacity increase. LOL!
DeleteYour girl knows how to eat surely! First time I heard of cats eating cakes, the pandan layer cake must be very fragrant.. As for me, I develop this unhealthy habit of eating in front of the TV ever since my kids left home.. somehow the food taste nicer watching TV and I always end up eating more than the usual portion!
ReplyDeletehah..hah.. ya..ya..food taste nicer in front of the TV!
DeleteDid you have this craving for pandan layer cake aft reading it in mun's blog? Wow cake and ic, a lot of people's favourite!
