Happy Mama:

I just put to bake Choc Chip bread. Anyone knows why we must crush the choc chips when they are already so small? I don't intend to crush it

Hi Happy Mama, we r making the same bread today I also don't understand why the need to crush the choco chips when they r already so small. I just crush them a little.

I just bought a knife from phoon huat, hopefully it's ok, it costs $13.50. By the way, did anyone try buying the Rec Sun stuff, r they good? I was surprised to see that the cinnamon is very cheap compare to Bake King.

My bread is ready and today, it has risen higher than yesterday. Only thing is because I don't have a proper knife, I was not able to slice it nicely. Hence all the choc chips got \"smeared\" and bread doesn't look good, but taste wise, very very good! :drool: :rahrah:

I just bought my bread machine!!!!! :rahrah: Am trying out the plain loaf first to see how it works. One thing though, it's so difficult to see through the window because it's so dark in there.


AND... I forgot to put in the blade. hahahah! Only realized it just before I turned on the machine. I had to move all the flour etc out of the way to put the blade in. Hope it doesn't affect the bread or the machine.

Wish me luck!!

Haha, congrats, that's another bread machine convert, influenced by this thread! :celebrate:

Now that you have your machine, can indulge in fluffy pillows and sinful kaya, but don't expect kopi and soya bean from your machine hor! :lol:

Good luck, don't forget to post photos for us to drool over!
