Welcome to Vicky’s little cake store (VC),I belive most girl likes cake and little deserts,today and for the first episode of VC I want to introduce two dessert that I like very much.
The egg tart is a kind of custard tart pastry commonly found in Hong Kong and other Asian countries, which consists of an outer pastry crust that is filled with egg custard and baked.Today, egg tarts come in many variations within Hong Kong cuisine, including egg white, milk, honey-egg, ginger-flavored egg, which are variations of a traditional milk custard and egg custard served in cha chaan tengs, and also chocolate tarts, green-tea-flavored tarts, and even bird's nest tarts. Unlike English custard tarts, milk is normally not added to the egg custard, and the tart is not sprinkled with ground nutmeg or cinnamon before serving. It is also served piping hot rather than at room temperature like English custard tarts.
A palm tree or elephant ear is a kind of pastry in a palm shape or a butterfly shape, sometimes called palm leaves, elephant ears, french hearts or glasses. It is thought to have originated in France around the turn of the 20th century, but appears to a broader geography than just France. In Germany they are known as "Schweineohren" or in English "pig's ears". There is no known first credit for the recipe. Palmiers are made from puff pastry, a laminated dough similar to the dough used for croissant, but without the yeast. Puff pastry is alternating layers of dough and melted butter. The puff pastry is rolled out, coated with sugar, and then the two sides are rolled up together so that they meet in the middle, making a roll that is then cut into about 1/4" slices and baked. Usually it is rolled in sugar before baking. There is also a version that topped with honey.
These two dessert are the ones that I want to strongly Recommend to the people that like cakes , in fact they are all very famous. I think there are no more time leave .Hope to see you next time.,88~~~

1. Be regular. You will create a new blog post every other day or 4 times per week. Each post will contain 200 or more words.
2. Be respectful. 3 times a week you will write at least one comment on someone else's post about what they have written.
This is a sandbox, not a litter box. You are free to play as you wish, but respect others' ideas and feelings.
3. Be interesting. There is a whole universe out there with almost unlimited things to talk about. We don't want to read about what you ate for lunch everyday. Tell us a story. Talk about something that happened in the news. Use pictures. Wow us with your wit and your charm.
