Hello, what do you mean by not so professionally shaped .... this reminds me of Delifrance wor ....


:udawoman:

Oh my goodness, please DON'T insult Delifrance!

It's definitely better than Delifrance.

If I can use the word \"Artisan\" bread (one forummer used it, was it b2b3m4) and need to borrow the word here.

You all know something? As I busied myself with my chores this afternoon, I was thinking how nice it would be if we could have a party, yes, all the bread kakis here, some may want to show off their breads, some their cakes and other goodies .... :drool:

yes, that would be nice! :celebrate:

My Cranberry Loaf.... Yummy!! Thanks to jtoh for her knife recommendation. At last I managed to slice my bread more professionally... but I only managed to slice into 6 slices as I have not acquired the slicing skills yet...


In the first picture, notice how high my loaf has risen...

For me, it came down to space constraints. The Z is more space saving. I think when deciding which one to buy, must also consider kitchen top space. I decided to leave the breadmachine out in the open to remind me to bake more often. If keep in the cupboards, will be a case of \"out of sight and out of mind\". Really depends on each individual's needs.

I also think that the z promoter was well-versed in product knowledge and did a good job in answering my questions sincerely. She wasn't trying to hard sell the product (sales prob also too good already lah). On the contrary, the s promoter was not very forthcoming. I had to prod her b4 she took the trouble to let me have a look at the manual.

I had actually left my home intending to purchase the s because I really believe its a good buy and value for money, but in the end got the z instead :lol: :lol:

Agree. There are 2 Zs promoters and both give good service. However, I tend to think the one named Ivy is friendlier and more forth-coming with her suggestions and ideas.

When I was kay-poh-ing at Taka, the sales promoter was a guy and a bit blur. Not very service oriented compared to Tangs[/quote]What advice did Ivy share?

To all the Z owners here. The French Loaf recipe from your Z Machine is better than the recipe from my Bluesky! :celebrate:


:peekaboo: Showing my \"not-so-professionally-shaped\" French Loaf, baked using the Z recipe.

Okie .... I am still experimenting with my wholemeal bread. In the meantime, I will continue drooling on all your success :celebrate:


I will post results once I achieve success

I have been doing some reading on the net and indeed, it seems a challenging task.

I am all the more determine to do better ....

Haiz, i should have paid more attention during Science lessons

Tomorrow morning I am going to make another cranberry loaf and deliver it to my parents. Hopefully it turns out fine (unlike my raisin loaf).

Then in the afternoon, IF, I have the mood and the time, I will try wholemeal bread with cranberry. Don't know if I'm too adventurous. Heehee!!

you're turning your home into a bakery!
