The Yam Cake

Let me put it this way. Yam is nice. You have it mashed and shaped into a bowl and deep-fried. You can cut it to little chunks and steam it. You can slice it and turn it into crisps. You can even turn it into ice-cream and colour it purple too. But a yam Birthday cake? This is a new one. Let' hope they don't come up with yam-flavoured Shandy or wine cooler or something. Still had anyone come across yam bread and yam pizza?

Anyway, today's weather is not that good. And so,
with nothing else better to do, my Boss rushed out
all of a sudden...

And came back with a Birthday cake. Yep, its one
of our Tech's birthday and this time, we're not
going to miss this one. Now, when we opened the
box to see a purple cake, I was half expecting it to
smell like one of those Lavender powder perfumes.

Anyway, it tastes nice. OK, I mean if you're
going to buy a cake early so in the morning,
its going to come in frozen. So, the middle
of the cake is frozen, and so is the yam.

[Later on, when we left it overnight in the fridge, it tasted blissfully delicious the next morning. Wow. The only thing missing is the Kampung Koh Chili sauce.]
