Happy Birthday Sarada!
April 18, 2008
In usual ICON style, birthdays in the office are all about food! Together with Sarada’s birthday, we also celebrated Judith’s return from maternity leave.
Gwen’s mum made us a BUCKET full of dry laksa!! Have you ever heard of that before? Dry Laksa? It tastes exactly like Laksa (Curry mee for the Malaysians) but without the soup! F A N T A S T I C ! A no-mess lunch.
And of course, a birthday can’t go by without a Secret Recipe Hazelnut chocolate cake, which by the way, for the umpteenth time refuses to cut neatly to the bottom. So we usually end up eating mush cake… But…. BUT… its AMAZING mush cake. Definitely in my top 10 cakes tasted. It’s called the ‘Chocolate Royale’ just in case you want to try it out.
Happy Birthday Sarada, and Welcome Back Judith!

Hi Angela. I’ve been reading your blog for quite some time and there certainly have been numerous birthdays in your office!
Here’s a tip on how to cut cake neatly. The secret of cutting Secret Recipe cakes (or any cake for that matter) is to use a metal knife dipped in very hot water just prior to cutting. That’s what the staff there do when they sell cake by the slice.
