Unicorn Rainbow Mille Crêpe Cake 獨角馬彩虹法式薄餅千層蛋糕



If you want to see something magical, such as an unicorn flying over the rainbow, you’ve come to the right place!  Check out my video tutorial above and you’ll see that magic!  Okay, maybe I’m not really a magician, but I can certainly make a magical cake!

Have you been seeing everything Unicorn lately?  I sure have and there’s one particular “Unicorn Treat” that I saw on Pinterest that I couldn’t forget!  Yes, the Unicorn Rainbow Mille Crêpe Cake!

According to the posts that I saw on the internet, there’s an unicorn themed café in Thailand that serves this unicorn cake.  It’s dreamy, whimsical, and definitely stole my heart!  Since I won’t be travelling to Thailand any time soon, my only solution to ease the craving is to recreate this stunning cake, based on the pictures I’ve seen on different social media websites.

Let me reassure you, this cake tastes amazing and just as magical as it’s look.  I don’t know how the cake in the Thailand café tastes like, but I sure know mine tasted wonderful and all these layers are made with natural ingredients!

I’m not great in cake decorating, so I tried to keep the design of this cake rather simple, just like the one I saw on the internet.  But with the interior of this cake being so stunning, it’s better to keep the outside of this cake simple.

It’s so exciting to cut into this cake to reveal all these different colors and layers!

There are 4 different flavors in these layers of crêpes.  The pink ones on top are strawberries, follow by lemon, then matcha green tea, and last but not least, blueberries on the bottom.  If you eat the crêpe layers separately, you can definitely taste each of the different flavors.  If you taste all these layers in one bite, you’ll get the hints of berries, along with the earthiness of the matcha, and a very refreshing citrus flavor from the lemon.

If you have a spring party, celebration, or know someone who is crazy about rainbow or unicorn, you’ve got to make this cake!  It is somewhat time consuming to cook all these crêpe layers, but nothing too difficult at all.  If you follow my tips on the video tutorial and use the right tools, your crêpes and cake will turn out just as beautiful!

Ham and Egg Savory Crepes – Easter Sunday Brunch Recipe




Do you have any plans for Easter Sunday yet?  It’s such a lovely time to celebrate; the meaning of new life, the warming up of temperature, and the aroma of the blooming Spring flowers, etc.  Today, I wanted to share with you a beautiful Easter Sunday Brunch Recipe that you can prepare for your family.  Check out the Ham and Egg Savory Crepes video tutorial above if you haven’t done so.  I’ll show you step-by-step on how to prepare these crepes and assemble them together.

Of course, this recipe is probably good all year around, and not just on Easter.  But the gorgeous and slightly runny egg yolk in the middle simply reminds me of Spring and Easter.  Best of all, you can prepare the crepes the day before.  So, when brunch time rolls around, you can assemble and bake these off in no time!

Besides ham and egg, I also used some smoked mozzrella cheese in these savory crepes.  You can use any grated cheese that you like, such as gouda, cheddar, or even goat cheese.  Pretty much any cheese that you like that melt nicely when heated up.

The bake time in this recipe is important because you want to make sure the egg whites are cooked and the yolks stays runny.   I baked my crepes for exactly 12 minutes with room temperature, large size eggs.  If you use larger eggs or taking the eggs out of the fridge right before baking, they might take a minute or two longer to cook.  Simply check on the crepes at 12 minutes mark on their done-ness and determine if they need additional bake time.

Simple Sweet Crêpe with Berries and Chantilly Cream for Valentine’s Day


Simple Sweet Crêpe with Berries and Chantilly Cream

Do you love crêpes (pronounce as “kreps”)?  Crêpe is a type of very thin pancake originated in France.  Crêpes are served with a variety of fillings, both savory and sweet.  Today, I wanted to share with you my favorite way to eat crêpes, a sweet version, of course; filled with mixed berries and chantilly cream.  Very simple ingredients, yet the flavor combination is wonderful.   

Simple Sweet Crepe with Berries and Chantilly Cream

I absolutely adore crêpes because they are very versatile.  You can simply fill them with any fruit that you like.  My kids love berries so I used strawberry slices, raspberry and blueberry along with some Chantilly cream.  Basically, the Chantilly cream is a slightly sweetened, freshly whipped cream with a dash of vanilla (that got “dressed up” with a fancy name, LOL).  Since my Hubby is not a big fan for berries, I filled his crêpes with banana slices, homemade French Roasted Coffee Ice Cream along with a drizzle of Nutella and toasted hazelnuts.  Boy oh boy, that’s one of my favorites as well.

Also, you can prepare the crêpes ahead of time. I often make a batch or two and cook the batter all at once.   The cooked crêpes can be kept in the fridge or freezer for future use whenever you fancy for one, or two.  Simply keep them in the freezer safe containers or ziploc bags so they stay nice and fresh.

If you haven’t decided on the desserts to serve your sweetheart on Valentine’s Day, give these Simple Sweet Crêpes a try!  I guaranteed that you and your loved ones will love these crêpes.  Just one bite (of the crêpe, not your Valentine), your sweetheart will sure fall in love with you all over again.  If you haven’t win your Valentine’s heart over yet, these crêpes will sure be big help, I hope.  Worse case scenario , he/she will just fall in love with the crêpes.  Well, but at least you get to enjoy a lovely desserts together.

I added a small amount of Grand Marnier (orange liqueur) in the batter.  You can use any liqueur that you love or prefer.  As the batter cooks, most of the alcohol will be evaporated.  The liqueur enhances and adds the depth of flavor to these crêpes.  However, if you prefer not to use any liqueur, you can replace the amount with milk or water. 

I hope you enjoyed today’s post and recipe.  If you give this recipe a try, don’t forget to let me know what you think.  I wish you and your loved ones a sweet ending this Valentine’s Day!
