It was my MIL’s birthday on Saturday. I decided to make some ice-cream cakes to celebrate 🙂 Instead of using a tray, I bought some aluminium foil bowls (which are for lor mai kai) and made ice-cream cuppies.
Got some pretty heart sprinkles too as topping
Oh, I finally bought a rolling pin. Here is Ashley helping me to crush the cookies.
After stiring in the melted butter, it’s time to press them into the little bowls.
I bought 2 different types of ice-cream this time – chocolate and vanilla. Some of the cuppies have vanilla ice-cream as first layer and some chocolate ice-cream.
Here are the cuppies. We celebrated MIL’s birthday at Swez Brasserie, Eastin Hotel. I brought the cuppies to the restaurant and the staff was so kind to keep them in the freezer for me.
Ashley playing around after she has finished her dinner.
Cuppies blowing time. Ashley told everyone that her mommy made the cakes and they should all say ‘Thank You’ to her mommy 😉 She also told them that she helped me to make them too *grins*
Wow, cup cakes with lots of love! Good job Barbara 😉
Happy belated birthday to your MIL!!
thanks 🙂
Nice! Ashley is so pretty as usual 🙂 You are really thoughtful, Barb. I’ve never baked/made anything for my MIL (in my 10 years of marriage) :p
thank you 🙂 well…this is my first time making something for her 😉
Very nice! You are so creative Barb. I know your MIL’s birthday is the same as mine but this year I forgot! Getting old I guess…..she looks good….Happy Belated Birthday to your Mum In Law! So you finally got the rolling pin…hehe…now you can make many things! 😀

merci beaucoup 🙂 your girls will inherit it…kkekeekkekekeke
It’s good to have a little helper in the kitchen. And what a wonderful thought for your MIL’s birthday 🙂
thanks 🙂
Wow, Barb. Investing into aluminium bowls is a wonderful idea. I never thought of that. The cake is easier to scoop and eat, and the best part of all – it does not require cutting. I’ve been procrastinating the making of my ice cream cake because I couldn’t find appropriate container… lame excuse, hahaha!
i got the idea after seeing MNHL’s Diary’s 2nd attempt. It’s really hard to cut the ice-cream and when you scoop them with a spoon, the cookie crumbs will fall everywhere. so when everyone has their own bowl, they can eat it easily.
What a great idea, Barb! And what a great help Ashley is. And I love her dress; goes very well with the rest of the assemble :-D. You’re a very thoughtful “sampou” too. I stopped making anything for my in-laws many years ago… haha!
thanks 🙂 hmm…perhaps this is the only time i’m making something for her 😉
Wow, what a good DIL you are! Surely your MIL are very touched and your hubby very proud too! Your little girl looked very charming also. Thanks for this recipe. Will make some too this coming holiday.
thanks 🙂 i’m sure everyone in your family would enjoy this 🙂
Ashley looks very sweet in the dress..and of course pretty too 🙂
wow wow wow!!! Barb, your ice cream look very very nice!! Now you make me also want to try this out! You’re so creative by putting it inside the small alluminium foil bowls and decorate it. Tsk tsk tsk tsk. Well done Barb! * clap clap clap*
Next time do some for me ok?
Wow, your ice-cream cake deco with lots of heart, haha, surely your MIL feel your love to her. Shenny said Ashley is very lucky and pretty. Shenny loves all those hearts too!
