Purple Sweet Potato Cake紫薯蛋糕

on

It has been a long time that I didn't bake purple sweet potato cake... this time I used the puree as cream for the cake and the pastel purple colour of whipped cream to decorate the cake... it's so beautiful. Furthermore, the cream is not too sweet and very refreshing with a tint of purple sweet potato in whipped cream.😘






* When I make the cake batter, I forgot to mix the melted butter, "alamak"! I quickly take out the cake from oven which it was baked in the oven for few minutes already... I added in the melted butter and have  a quick stir in pan and some of the batter flowed out form the cake pan bottom... "alamak"! So,  my cake is short lor!!😅
