Every year, I would be selling Hari Raya homemade cookies and Sarawak layer cakes for Hari Raya (Eid Ul Fitr) celebration. It's a small business I do once a year because of my passion for cakes and cookies. Suka makan sebenarnya...buat tak pandai mana pun..
Nevertheless, I don't make those cookies on my own, ok. So, I never really experience the baking process and the joy it brings hehe...The cookies are made by a friend in Kota Bharu. Frankly speaking, I really don't know how to make good cookies. Even if I follow the step by step recipes, still things did not work! I am just so not talented when it comes to baking. I think to be a good baker, you do not only need good recipes and skills in baking but also patience! I guess I am just not patient enough!
Actually many of my colleagues are also selling Hari Raya cookies.. At work, we have started getting a lot of cookies samples and people had started placing their oders. Even though I sell cookies, I still order cookies from my friends or would just buy mana2 yg I nampak sedap anywhere I found them! Kat Bukit Bintang Plaza or SACC mall banyak jual biskut sedap2 that I like so much but they are quite pricy..
Some of the cookies I am selling this year
This one is called Basket Lady
Tart Teratai (It's actually pineapple tart) 
Some sample cookies
Below are some cookies I sold in 2008 and 2009.
Last year's favourite biscuit was Biskut Seroja and it's also my favourite!
Baskets for hampers
Cookies I sold in 2008
This was a favourite back in 2007.
The Sarawak Layer cakes that I am selling come from a bakery owned by a friend. She is also selling them online at Randau.Net.
biskut seroja tu yg ada peanut butter tu kan?sedap... i pun suka :)
ReplyDeleteMmmmm - these all look so delicious. Would be hard to choose ...... but if I lived nearby to you I would probably buy them all! I'm very greedy when it comes to these sort of goodies :-)

TK,
ReplyDeletethe cookies look so tempting, so colourful...yummy.
my favorite cookies??of course my mum tart nenas!!
This is all new to me. The cookies are so pretty. Some of them look familiar but for the most part, they're different from what is offered here in the U.S. I think it's great that you're doing this. I hope you get lots of orders and best of luck this year!
ReplyDeleteWow! Such a pretty collection of cookies! It must take a lot of work (and patience as you say) to make those.
ReplyDeleteGood luck and hope you get many orders!
salam dear..:)
ReplyDeleteermmmmmmm..memang suka sgt cookies!!!!
nak buatnya..aduhaii..hehehe..

ReplyDeleteTK dear,
ReplyDeleteThey all look so marvelous..alas umi ni so very traditional when it comes to raya food. I go for tart,dodol,kueh putu kacang,bahulu,bangkit and samperit. The rest are cakes..Tiap2 tahun sama dari kecik sampai la tua renta ni.
Semoga cookie businessnya maju jaya ya .Amin.
Have a great week dear.
