Getting ready for Mid-Autumn with these cookie custard mooncakes! 🥮🌕✨
I created these as an alternative to the traditional mooncakes. An option for those that want to opt for different flavours, less sweet and not as rich as the classics.
In my home, we have a combination of both so the offering is plentiful and full of opportunities.
Available to order from my website: www.pollychan.co.uk

2hrs sleep over two days is NOT advised... But I'd still do it again! 🤭
Mid-Autumn Market at @urban_garden_fair over the weekend was so mad but fun!
Previously when I did a market here I sold out within ~2-3hrs and the organisers recommended to make double the amount - which initially sounded insane production-wise, but logistically made sense.
So crazy me, being me. Ofc I went full ham.
Altogether, I made around 580-590 products (including baking extra products to cut for samples!!! 😵💫), and I'm extremely grateful we sold out. However I need to highlight that in doing this, it's ALWAYS risky business and a total gamble if you sell all products, especially being perishable items.
My brain was so fried, I brought the buns, card reader and myself but forgot everything else, thank gosh for my sister Karen for lugging it over🙏🏻🤣🤣🤣
That being said; it was a great day nonetheless 🫰🏻😉
Very thankful for all those that turned up, tried stuff, chatted to us and supported my small business. Thank you for believing in my bakes! That is the ultimate honour 🙌🏻💖🥰
Until the next one~

Frog Cake 🐸✨
Bespoke cake design request as the birthday girl loves frogs! Made entirely with fresh cream NOT BUTTERCREAM, because let's be honest, we all know fresh cream slaps.
Super fun cake to make, the most difficult part was probably the eyes as the cream structure is not as stable as buttercream, so to get it to hold without getting splitting was difficult - I just piped it in layers and smoothed it out with a palette knife. Then drew on the eyes!!
It's so cute! Also featuring my sweet potato slips and sunflowers from my friend Senel! 💚💚💚
.。*♡ happiest birthday to Zihan!

Coconut White Chocolate Truffles
(with naturally coloured "sprinkles")
-Recipe-
250g White chocolate (good quality, semi-melted)
100g Coconut cream (or double cream)
25g Unsalted butter (room temp)
30g Toasted desiccated coconut
20g Desiccated coconut with 1/2TSP -
Matcha powder (green)
Tumeric powder (yellow)
Raspberry powder (pink)
-Method-
1) Gently melt the white chocolate a little so some of it is melted.
2) Allow the coconut cream to come to a simmer NOT boiling, and pour over the semi-melted chocolate.
3) Add the butter and gently mix in, in a circular motion from the middle.
4) Add in toasted coconut pieces and gently mix in too. Put clingfilm to touch so it doesn't set a skin.
5) Chill the mix in the fridge overnight or at least 12hrs.
6) Ball up to whatever size you like and set aside. Mix up the powders with the desiccated coconut. Drop the white chocolate balls into the colourful sprinkles and reshape if needed.
7) Serve immediately, keep chilled or gift them to your favourite people to enjoy together! ✨
❄️Lasts 4-5 days in the fridge
Enjoy! 🫶🏻

An artist that became a baker! 🖌️🍞🍰
Before becoming a pastry chef and baker, I trained in a fine art and graphic design background. During my dissertation, where I wrote a complete 10k essay on how you can experience graphic design through the senses, there was one area I couldn't really explore: taste.
- - - How does one TASTE design?
And thus, leading me to where I am today. Exploring pastry and baked goods as design pieces not just aesthetically, but through layers, textures and contrasting flavours.
I believe that good bakes don't always have to look crazy amazing, nor does it have to be so complex I don't actually know what I'm eating; no, unfortunately I'm not that kinda Chef.
To me, a good bake is one that is just tasty, although a lot of work happens BTS:
- to create an enjoyable texture
- good flavour that is naturally elevated
- solid technique to produce a very professional and polished outcome
