Ever wondered what to give to colleagues on a last day of work? Beside egg tarts, I wanted to give something more meaningful. After all it has been 3 years. Some of the trendy stuff I thought of were cakepops, cupcakes, cookies... It took some consideration before finally opting for royal icing cookies.

Ever wondered what to give to colleagues on a last day of work? Beside egg tarts, I wanted to give something more meaningful. After all it has been 3 years. Some of the trendy stuff I thought of were cakepops, cupcakes, cookies... It took some consideration before finally opting for royal icing cookies. In terms of design, size and budget, cookies were the best choice. 

Communication with Cake Option was good. Feedback was generally immediate. There was just one tiny misunderstanding at some point, but that was my own fault. I forgot to mention that I wanted "Au revoir", "Thanks" and "886" written separately on different styled cookies.

It was a surprise to me, but the result worked out fine. Each cookie had an 'international' feel to it. The small ladybug (company's mascot) on the side, a tribute to the company, was cute and discreet.

The lucky colleagues who received a cookie were overjoyed, mostly impressed by how pretty the gift was. Some thought the cookies tasted great, others thought they were too sweet. Sweet for sure, as icing and fondant definately mean loads of sugar. Not eating the cookie would also make it a great souvenir. Kudos to Cake Option for making my last day a memorable one.

Besides party food, what else to bring for a family gathering? Dessert!  But wait, making it yourself is even better. As the family is not a fan of overly-sweet things, a 6-inch Black Forest cake fit perfectly. The class, taught by a professional pastry chef, lasted about 3-4 hours. Booking a session at a fully-equipped, clean and spacious bakery especially when ovens are not a common household decor here is a good alternative. At Cake Option, only the best ingredients are used. A good example

 But wait, making it yourself is even better. As the family is not a fan of overly-sweet things, a 6-inch Black Forest cake fit perfectly.

The class, taught by a professional pastry chef, lasted about 3-4 hours. Booking a session at a fully-equipped, clean and spacious bakery especially when ovens are not a common household decor here is a good alternative.

At Cake Option, only the best ingredients are used. A good example would be the whipped cream filling that we mixed with melted dark Belgian chocolate and in which we added high quality cherry jam. For the outer layer, we used large chunks of chocolate that we crushed progressively as we stuck them onto the cake. My personal favourite: 'real' fresh cherries. Canned cherries? Oh! please no. Using fresh fruits is absolutely "cherry on the cake" for me. And with a slight touch of kirsch on each layer, this Black Forest is truly a delight.   

If you like the French confection 'macaron', you have to try the ones from Cake Option. They are less sweet, ingeniously adapted to Hong Kong's taste.
