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...

[quote=\"LKVM\"]Btw is there any kind kakis online right now to give the brand name of the bread flour, yeast, butter for the loaf in single post so that I can start buying

1. prima bread flour (thats what a few a are using)

2. I am using Schweppes recommendation for yeast (the french brand, you cannot miss it when you go to the baking aisle)

3. for butter I use lurpak, but I think any shd do)

Hope this helps. Wait for others' input, then you decide

I use:

1. Prima bread flour
2. Fleischmann yeast
3. Presidents butter[/quote]Hi all,
I've a question on the butter. Must it be unsalted since salt is added separately? Or slightly salted butter also can?

:? :? Wondering if I should bake Butter Cake or Chocolate Cake using my Z machine, once Cranberry loaf is ready??

:ugogirl:

Wow! At this rate u will soon reach ur 401 loaves target. You bread mamas are doing great. I'm enjoying your e-breads
I think we should have a tally board to see who bakes the most number of loaves. May be some prize for the winner too. PH vouchers ??? :love:

Looks good!!!!! What recipe did you use and how much cranberry?

I used Z's raisins recipe and just substitued raisins with cranberries. I reduced the cinnamon from 1/2 to 1/4 tsp too because I'm not sure how it'll taste with cranberries. Actually thought of leaving it out, but on 2nd thoughts, decided to have them, coz I love the smell of cinnamon...

I used 1/2 cup of cranberries though recipe states 1/4 raisins. [/quote]Nicely bake Happy Mama :celebrate:

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
