One Step Higher!

Yesterday, I went to a "heaven" on Earth for some bakers/cake decorators or simply baking enthusiasts like me. :) For some, it's "not so heaven" kasi ang daming tao, di pa ganun kalinis, etc, etc.

Actually, its not really for just bakers kasi sobrang daming pwedeng mabili dun. No, I'm not talking about Divisoria. Medyo-medyo DV lang sya for me. Haha! Medyo-medyo kasi bukod sa malapit sya sa DV (mga kunting kembot na lang), para rin kasi syang maliit na DV. Kaso mas madami pa din pwedeng mabili sa DV! Haha! (Waah. Bigla kong naMiss magDV! Makabisita nga soon! Haha!)

Anyway, I'm talking about Quiapo. There are some parts of Quiapo na well-known na bilihan ng ano. Sorry, but di ako ganun ka-pamilyar sa mga streets. Try mo na lang i-google or magpakaligaw ka na lang. Minsan masarap din maligaw to explore new stuff. Pero wag ka jumaporms ng bongga kung ayaw mo din maging center of attraction para sa mga "nangunguha ng di kanila". :D (Uy! Di ako naninira ah! Marami din naman lugar, not only in MLA or PH uso ang nakawan. Prevention lang naman iyon. Hihi.) 

Back on to the things you can buy, merong part of Quiapo na bilihan ng eye glasses and shades, electronics (DVD, TV, etc), jewelries, ukayan, gulayan atbp, and shempre ung mga tiangge-an. Pero nagtatago sa gilid-gilid nun ay ang mga kitchen tools and equipments. Merong mga baking supplies and tools na pwedeng-pwede na mabili ng mura compared sa mga mabibili sa specialty stores and malls.

Pero I'm not really blogging about Quiapo. I just wanted to share ung mga napamili ko. (Hahaha!)

So much happiness in buying these items sa murang halaga!

Allow me to show it to you, one by one. :)

It looks kunti for hard-core baker but it's too much for a novice baker like me! And it didn't cost me a thousand bucks! Kaya naman pagtyagaan mo na magbasa ng instructions na wrong spelling and/or grammar. Woo! Haha!

Napansin nyo bang it all leads sa pag-gawa ng fondant?

I've been baking for quiet some time now and I think, it's about time to step up. (Lakas ng loob! Haha!) Hence, YES! I'm taking my "baking life" into a higher level! Hahaha! Kahit marami pa kong kulang na tools and skills! Hahaha! (Wasakan ng bulsa at duguan ng utak 'to! Wahahahaha!) 

Actually, I'm just trying out things kung meant to be kami ng cake decorating! Hahaha! Kaya naman, unti-unti, ung mumurahin muna ung binibili ko para kapag di kami meant to be, di masyadong nakakaiyak at nakakawasak ng bulsa! :D

Kaya di ko pa din masyadong ma-explain ang gamit ng bawat isa. Haha! I will blog about my baking & cake decorating life kapag confident na ko. Haha!

So, wish me luck??!! (And give me some tips for some hard-core bakers out there? Hihi.)

Happy Sunday and Happy All Saints' Day, everyone!
