On my way to my haircut at Franck Provost in Crows Nest, I spotted a gelato place next door to it on Holterman street.
It was a one woman show that morning with the lady looking extremely frazzled.
The flavours are those you would normally find, ferrero rocher, vanilla, cookies and cream, hazelnut, coffee and so on.
$4 for one scoop, $6 for 2.
I chose ferrero and cookies and cream. I was quite disappointed with the ferrero as it didn't have the nuttiness or the crunch that the ferrero flavour usually has but the cookies and cream OMG was absolutely to die for! It had the right balance of crunch, chocolate, biscuit folded through the vanilla gelato base. The scoops were generous for the price you pay.
Also,they serve food too...

I am addicted to....
TOP CHEF!!!! Top Chef Masters, Top Chef and the grandest of them all ....
TOP CHEF JUST DESSERTS.
My therapy after a whole day with 27 children. Top Chef Just Desserts, was just the right mix of skill, bitchiness, backstabbing, and jaw dropping moments. So naturally, I tried to recreate it at home. A choc chip cookie that is.
I researched all the conversions, the recipe and watched very closely the mannerisms of the sole baker on Top Chef Just Dessert's sole baker. However... all good things must come to an end at some time, right??
Well it did. I cut my thumb. On a Tupperware julienne system. It could not have cut a worse spot. Right on the side. So the days leading to Christmas, my thumb was bandaged. Bandaged heavily.
Also, somehow my conversions must have been a little well... off... my kitchenaid, whilst mixing all the ingredients the head bit started lifting. I was so scared that the whole thing my crash, I turned it off thinking I'll just use my hands to mix the dough. Well I forgot about the thumb. I transferred the crumbly dough into a bowl, glad wrapped it and fridged it. I was bitterly disappointed.
Miss 'Eck to the rescue!!! My best friend and I decided to bake red velvet cupcakes for Chrissy. After baking cupcakes, I explained my dire situation and lucky for me, Miss 'Eck mixed and fixed my dough!! Yippeee!!!
These cookies are just to die for. A true cookie indeed.

SO I've been M.I.A.
I've noticed my followers have grown from 1 to 4! Yippeeee!!!
Real life took over unfortunately.... I was offered a job at the beginning of school year, yes in 2010.. yes I realise that was ONE YEAR AGO!! But don't you all worry. Not a moment went by where I did not think of my blog. So I am back. Back with a vengeance. Armed with a whole lot of new artillery. So here goes. 2011 year of the WalkingCake blog.
