Ok, I promise this is the last of my Chinese New Year bakes. How can it be Chinese New Year without pineapple tarts, right?

I actually made the fillings a week ago but have never gotten around the make the tarts. Actually I also could not decide which recipe to try since there are so many different recipes out on the internet! Then on Saturday, I went to a Chinese New Year potluck with my bible study group. There I met a new friend A who generously shared her easy recipe for the pineapple tart. A, thanks for a great and easy recipe. It’s delicious!! Hope you’ll be coming back here for vacation again soon.

I gave some of my Chinese New Year goodies to Lil’ C’s chinese school teachers. I thought it would be nice to include some cupcakes for them too, just for fun

So I made these vanilla cupcakes and decorated them with some marshmallow fondant. It was harder than I thought because the decos have to be very small & I have fat fingers!!! It was hard trying to make everything delicate. I think the princess doll cake was easier because it was bigger.

Another one of my Chinese New Year snacks. I am not sure what is the exact name for this snack but it is really good. To make this snack, just roll the spring roll skin into tiny rolls, seal with eggwash and deep fry till golden brown. Remove from oil, drain and roll it in sugar and sesame seed.
