 My mum loves these soft & fluffy passionfruit ogura cakes. She even asks me to bake her another  flavour next time.

I went Strawberry picking at Taiwan recently & came across these Strawberry powder. Besides having a nice fragrant strawberry smell, it also has a light salty taste (due to the plum powder in it). I was told that the powder can be added onto ice shavings or dip guava in the strawberry powder. I even saw on a cooking show where the chef sift the powder on macarons!

I have 2 bottles of Strawberry powder (40g per bottle) for my Cathy's Joy readers. This is how to enter the giveaway:
  • Leave a comment below telling me that you wish to try this Strawberry powder & how you are going to use the powder
  • If you have a Facebook account, all you have to do is 'LIKE' Cathy's Joy on Facebook to get an extra entry.
  • The winners will be selected randomly. They must reside in Singapore for self collection of prize.
  •  Giveaway starts from today & ends next Monday, 28th January 2013.
