Kek Sarang Semut

Sarang Semut is a Malay word for Ant Nest, so Kek Sarang Semut can be literally translated as Ant Nest Cake, but sometimes it is known as Honeycomb Cake.

This cake sits on my top favourite list, I love it so much that I could finish it within an hour without sharing with anyone!!  If not because of watching the health, I would have baked it everyday.  

I have two recipes here, one is from the cookbook I bought while the other is from Cilicrabbies who shares hers with readers.  Any recipes you go for, I would suggest to leave the cake overnight in the fridge as it would tasted differently from freshly baked. 

Horlick Steam Cake


This is one of my top favourite cakes in the past few months, as it is pretty easy to make and of course is yummy to have.

Horlick cake is by far the only steam cake I've made, the texture is more moist than those we baked in the oven.  As I do not have Kaya jam in hand so I always use Strawberry jam instead.

Recipes Collection

This blog is mainly to share and keep a record of the Malaysian food that I've 'collected' from other blogs.  I have never really into baking or cooking for whole my life but one day, out of the blue, I grew the love for baking and was crazily looking for Malaysian cakes and dishes.

I browsed and googled all the Malaysian blogs and bookmarked all the pages that I'm interested in.  This ends up I've got this whole lots and lots of bookmarks on my browser and I don't remember what recipes I've bookmarked.  Since then I was thinking of having a blog to keep all those recipes and hopefully others would come and share theirs.  Of course, since I grew the love for baking so I would like to know recipe from all over the world.
