Mango Yoghurt Ice-cream


I really don't know how to take a nice ice-cream photo, in fact I never take good photo due to my poor photo taking technique and my lousy camera ;p

Without ice-cream scooper, my ice-ceam ball is not really a ball. I can't take my time as it get melt. No wonder professional photographer use potato to replace ice-cream when it come to photo taking. I guess i won't have better skill than professional photographer, so i gave up :p. I just use the highest speed to take the photo as well as putting the ice-cream in my mouth.

The ice-cream is so yummy and refreshing. It is wonderful to be taken at these hot days. I will say this is a wholesome ice-cream because it contains yoghurt (which is healthy), with a little bit of sugar (compare to the amount of sugar use in baking), and it use non-daily cream (non-daily cream is healthy right? At least it is healthier than daily cream), and forget about the egg yolks, haha.

Miracle dessert

Yap got this recipe from his great-grandmother, she called it Miracle Dessert, and after 50 years, SK II launched its product -Miracle Water, with the name inspired from the dessert.

The dessert has got a weird combination of ingredients that I can never think of - liquorice (gan cao) and orange.

To be sure, it won't be called miracle for nothing, it is tested very useful to moisturize the lung, arrest cough and soothing the throat. I had tried this a few times and it works.



Unlike most of the bitter chinese herbs, it has a heavenly sweet taste. In fact, I am so enjoy drinking this.

No recipe will be posted here. Consideration to sell the recipe could be made for those interested, with reasonable price, haha.
