Can See But Cannot Taste.... Yet!

Firstly, an apology to Elin for delaying this post, supposedly to be up two days ago. Because of the Raya Gathering and a post about Aaron, this mango cake was forced to make way.

Secondly, a big Thank U to Elin for "contributing" this big portion of her mango cake to me the very next morning.... She baked it the night before and sent me a big picture while we were msn-ing.. and u know what, Elin, that night was a real "torture" for me and my girl... "See but cannot Taste!" lol.....

But all was forgotten when Elin presented me this portion of her yummy mango cake... I was so overwhelmed by the big portion, it looked so delicous that I couldn't help cutting up the cake immediately after she left my office.... hahahhaa...

Now, let me think *eyes looking up*... I bought her mangoes, she baked a mango cake for me... what shall I buy for her tomorrow??? or the next???? and next???? any suggestions?





Ladies or guys, u want to taste this? Easy, just go to her blog and the recipe is just there for grabs! My girl loves it very much, I bought some mangoes already, perhaps this weekend I will try to bake this Mango Cake.... wish me all the Best!!
