Tenacity, Innovative and Adorable are some of the attributes I refer to an Indonesian Food Artist, Rabbit! Rabbit? Yes, born in the year of rabbit and always considered rabbit as her ‘favorite pet’ (though she never owned a real rabbit), calls herself, Rabbit.
Rabbit started a foodie blog Rabbit Can Cook on August 2011 to challenge herself, to see if she could successfully cook her Mom’s special homemade food, with varieties of international recipes. A few months later, she incorporated the art of designing bentos (Japanese decorated lunch boxes). Rabbit’s bento designs are something to see and admire (#1~100 & #101~ ).
Over 300 recipes later (of which 170 are bentos), in May 2013, Rabbit started a new blog,
Rabbit Can Bake showcasing her new found passion, baking, the intricate art of Japanese deco-rolls! Rabbit loved the idea and challenge of creating something cute and unique, and her motto is ‘to bake and create something that brings a smile to the eater’s face, joy to their taste bud and happiness to their belly’!
I am hopping with delight to introduce Rabbit as my first ‘dessert’ Guest Post presenter.

Hello Everyone!
When my friends saw my cute deco-roll cakes, intrigued, they wanted to taste for themselves, as well as to send as gifts. Further showing interest by asking for other design and flavor varieties, I decided to create another blog to commercialize/showcase photo galleries for the fans to see the options and choose from. I appreciate your visit to my new blog, Rabbit Can Bake and please leave me your thoughts.
At my baking course, I am learning more than deco-rolls. We are learning all kinds of dessert bakings, and for this guest post, I picked to present Almond Tuile.
Almond Tuile
Recipe by: Rabbit Can Bake & Rabbit Can Cook (rabbitcanbake.wordpress.com)
This recipe is about maximizing unused egg whites. An adaptation from Judy Koh’s recipe book, called Pockets of Happiness.
INGREDIENTS
• 80 gr icing sugar (I prefer less sweet)
• 100 gr unsalted butter
• 100 gr egg whites
• 100 gr flour
• 1 tsp vanilla / almond essence
• Handful of baked almond slices.
DIRECTIONS
1. Cream butter and icing sugar until light and gradually add in egg whites and mix well.
2. Sieve in flour and add essence.
3. Mix to a smooth batter.
4. Pipe the batter into lined tray, sprinkle almond slices.
5. Bake in preheated oven at 180°C until golden brown and crisp.
~ Selamat Makan! • Bon Appétit! ~

Couldn’t agree more.
A guest post made of WIN! I love Rabbit!
Hello, thank you for liking this post and hop over to my blog as well
Glad to find a fellow rabbit fans 😀
MMMMMMM,…What a tasty almond tuille cookies that aren’t tuile cookies at all, because of the shape but they do look quite tasty!
Yummm!
Hello Sophie, thanks to you now I know what is the right shape of tuile, upon reading your comment I went back to google-up tuile and got the enlightenment.
I made this based on the recipe from my cookbook which the shape was not so tuile as well, so I thought shape doesn’t matter. Now I am motivated and encouraged to learn making a real tuile.
And yes Fae, agree with you that rabbit footprint tuile is a great name, though some reader in my blog thought that the almonds resamnle rabbit’s ears 😀
Clearly Rabbit is a talented baker and decorator. The cookies look beautiful and I am sure they are delicious. Will definitely check out her blog, so glad you featured it.
