I must try it soon. You bought your cranberries from PH? Have you seen them in Cold Storage?

Yes, you should. It's really yummy and I love the refreshing colour.

I bought cranberries from PH. Haven't been to Cold Storage for more than a week, so didn't notice the cranberries.. but i guess CS will have very good cranberries too.

I prefer to shop at PH because it's a one-stop store which serves all my baking needs.. and parking's so convenient too...

Which PH do you go to?

Hopefully it turns out well. I itchy itchy went and fiddle with the recipe. Later I will report report ...


The good news is that it is rising.

Ok, to borrow BigD's phrase, I buay pai seh .... good or bad, I will post pix.

Don't know whether it'll be like Gardenia lah. Don't know whether its normal corn they use. I am using canned cream style corn from del monte as it seems to have the consistency of mashed bananas

Sounds good. And rising is a good sign.

Ya me too! I post it even if it's a failure and still get so happy and excited over it.... Anyway, all for the fun of it right? So no need to get so uptight and serious!

Okie, done.


The bread was soft and fluffy.

DH likes it. But I personally feel that I shd add more corn than the required 1/3 cup amt next time.

I have to get a proper bread knife. The slicing was disastrous.

Here are the pix:

One slice only because this is the most presentable piece

I fiddled with the recipe:

1. I used 1/4 cups of wholemeal flour and 2 cups of bread flour instead of bread flour. I really like the taste of wholemeal lah ...

2. I did not have 2 tbsp all purpose flour so I substituted it for cake flour.

3. I added slightly more yeast.

Sigh, I'm so sad. I've just re-started my bread baking with my almost-becoming white elephant Severin tonight and dough had risen to a beautiful height and then I think it went \"kapoom\" when baking process started!!


Unfortunately , I dozed off and woke up to my alarm at 1230am so didnt realise that had happened until I opened the cover and the beautiful dough hill came tumbling down !!

I've now placed it in the oven with no idea how long to bake it for. 15 minutes on, and the crust is turning \"chao dar\"!! So lowered the temp to 140 degrees Celsius and have no idea if the inside is \"cooking\"....

I've been reading this thread and seems very true now that the bread maker must be constantly used!!

Mine's just over a year and half old only!! I used less than 10 times but must also say that I haven't used for a year too....

Sigh sigh sigh....
