Hi, loves! My day job is eating up my life, but I'm still alive. Haha 😉 I've been on daily overtime since April. Not fun, but a girl's gotta hustle. I just don't know for how long I can sustain the "no work life balance" situation, but we'll see in the coming days. Today is a rare moment because we're on Hong Kong holiday, hence this blog post.
Now on to the main topic. I love makeup and food the most, and I can do away with fashion as I have no love for clothes. LOL. When online bakeshop SHAMMY (Bake With Shyummy) asked me if they could send me their baked goodies, I immediately said yes. I had been eyeing their cupcakes and orange crinkles (!!!) for weeks already. And while I just planned on doing a microblog over at IG, I just went on to full writing mode because... ANG SARAP! 😍
💜💛 SHAMMY's freshly baked goodies 💛💜
Banana Hydrangea Cupcakes
How girly are these cupcakes?! 🌸 The Banana Hydrangea Cupcakes are a healthier way to indulge with its banana cake base that's not made from artificial banana flavoring. The overall sweetness is very balanced - from the smooth buttercream frosting to the moist cake. Hindi matamis, hindi nakakaumay. You just have to control yourself from eating too much.
Trivia: Carmina Villaroel is a fan of their banana goodies!
Calamansi Bites
These mini tangy muffins remind me so much of Boracay's famous calamansi muffin. They're made from freshly squeezed calamansi!
Orange Crinkles
I've associated crinkles with chocolate flavor all my life, so it was so shocking for me to see them in orange. I just had to try it. This one's actually the first item I tried from the package they sent me. It did not disappoint! It was crisp on the outside, soft on the inside, and bursting with orangey goodness. Ang cute ng lasa niya, parang candy. LOL. It's made from freshly squeezed oranges, too!
Chocolate Crinkles
Classic - you can never go wrong with these! 🍫
Choco Mochi Squares
This is such a unique find. This is a tikoy and brownie hybrid and IT'S SO GOOD. Super chocolatey and moist, hindi rin siya matamis. I think magkasundo kami ni SHAMMY ng taste buds, everything is not too sweet. Don't let the plain brown appearance fool you. This is my favorite among everything I have tried. It's a must try! (Tip: Do not refrigerate; it's best consumed within the day.) I'll re-order this for sure. Hihi 👍👍👍
Here's the menu of SHAMMY:
They deliver via Lalamove, so it's easy and convenient!
