What do you do for a living?
I’m an Interactive Multimedia Designer who works in a digital marketing agency. I’m passionate in creating visuals on variety of platforms including photography, illustration and 2D animation. I believe that colourful and meaningful artworks will bring joy to viewer’s life!

You've recently started to share your baking creations on your Instagram. Has baking always been a passion of yours?
Baking has always been my passion but I couldn't find a time to do it. Due to Movement Control Order (MCO) in Malaysia during March this year, I finally took the opportunity to start baking. It all started by creating the trendy Dalgona drink using Niko Neko Matcha powder during MCO period. As I really love eating bread, so I asked myself why not try to bake one? From there, I experienced the fun of baking.

What's the most enjoyable part of baking in your experience?
I love baking bread! The process of kneading dough with your own hands is so enjoyable! Even though it’s not easy to knead dough perfectly by hand, it’s so satisfying when I succeed! Besides, what makes baking enjoyable is when my creations look appetizing and visually appealing in the photo.

How did you come up with Houjicha Marshmallow Mousse recipe?
I came across a super easy-to-make recipe for mousse cake which only requires 3 ingredients and can be done in less than half an hour!
Image
Why did you choose AKANE / Houjicha for this recipe?
This recipe contains dark chocolate, which matches well with AKANE / Houjicha’s deep cacao notes. Its high level of cacao notes, roastiness, and smokiness also help to balance the sweetness of marshmallow, as marshmallow is the main ingredient of this mousse recipe.
