RESEPI 98: Cream Caramel – Tengok Khairul Aming Buat, Terus Rasa Nak Buat Jugak!

Okay honestly, before ni I pernah try buat cream caramel… tapi fail 😅

Lembik je custard, caramel pun tak cantik. Pernah jugak scroll TikTok, tengok orang buat resepi Khairul Aming – ada yang ngam, ada yang fail jugak. Rasa macam… eh kalau dia boleh, kenapa I tak boleh?

Pastu, ternampak video Khairul Aming buat cream caramel dia yang lembut, licin gila, terus rasa teracunnn nak buat lagi.

Yang best, versi ni dia letak roti + cream cheese. Bila blend semua sekali, custard dia jadi extra creamy & lembut, memang ngam kalau nak makan sejuk-sejuk lepas buka puasa.

Ingredients:

Caramel

1 cawan gula

Custard

2 biji telur

1 tin susu cair

1/2 cawan pekat manis

1/2 sudu kecil garam

1 sudu kecil esen vanilla

2 keping roti putih

1 cawan cream cheese

Cara buat:

Buat caramel dulu – gula masak slow sampai cair & perang keemasan. Tuang terus dalam bekas/loyang. Pusing sikit bagi caramel cover bawah.

Blend semua custard – telur, susu cair, susu pekat, gula, vanilla, roti & cream cheese. Blend sampai smooth.

Kena tapis! Ni step penting supaya custard nanti licin, smooth, tak berketul.

Tuang adunan dalam bekas caramel, kukus 1 jam api sederhana. Tip: balut penutup kukusan dengan kain supaya air tak menitik atas custard.

Sejukkan dulu dalam peti ais 1–2 jam, pastu terbalikkan atas pinggan. Caramel akan turun cantik atas custard 😍

I buat jadi…hahahahhaha

Bila I try buat sendiri, wowww! 😍

Custard lembut, creamy & smooth gila. Caramel cair atas custard tu cantik je. Yang best, roti & cream cheese bagi rasa lebih rich. Lepas sejuk, makan setiap suapan melt in the mouth. Memang puas hati… rasa macam dessert hotel dekat rumah sendiri.

Extra tips: blend sampai smooth, tapis untuk texture lebih cantik, kukus api sederhana supaya custard tak berlubang, dan lagi sedap kalau makan sejuk-sejuk dari peti ais.

Kalau korang suka dessert simple tapi nampak fancy, resepi cream caramel roti & cream cheese ni memang wajib try. Sekali buat… confirm nak repeat lagi! 😋

REVIEW: HOTEL HILTON KUALA LUMPUR – ONE NIGHT OF SPACIOUS COMFORT, DELICIOUS BREAKFAST & BIRTHDAY SURPRISE

I recently stayed at Hilton Kuala Lumpur for a one-night getaway, and while it was short, the experience left a lasting impression. From the moment I walked in, I could tell this was going to be a comfortable stay — with all the hallmarks of a Hilton hotel: clean, spacious, and thoughtfully designed.

Spacious Room & Relaxing Bathtub

My room was spacious, giving me plenty of room to unwind and move around freely. The décor was modern yet cozy, with a layout that felt both luxurious and functional. One feature I especially loved was the bathtub — perfect for soaking after a long day exploring the city. The room also had ample storage, clean linens, and a comfortable bed that made it easy to feel right at home, even if it was just for one night.

Breakfast – A Delicious Spread

The next morning, the breakfast was a highlight of my stay. The spread was impressive, offering everything from fresh pastries and tropical fruits to hearty cooked dishes. Whether you enjoy local flavors or classic international breakfast items, there’s something for everyone. The quality and variety made it feel like more than just a meal — it was a true morning treat.

Birthday Surprise… Almost!

This visit was extra special because it was part of my belated birthday celebration. I mentioned this in my booking, and the reservation team acknowledged it, promising a complimentary birthday cake in my room. It was a thoughtful gesture I had been looking forward to.

However, when I arrived, the cake was not in my room. Upon check-out, I raised the issue at the front desk. There was a bit of confusion — the staff initially claimed the cake had already been delivered, even though I hadn’t received it. After some checking and a brief wait, they finally provided the cake. While it was nice to receive it eventually, it did interrupt what should have been a seamless birthday surprise. Hopefully, Hilton can improve coordination for special requests in the future, because gestures like these truly make a stay memorable.

Service & Hospitality

Despite the cake hiccup, the staff were generally professional and courteous. The front desk was attentive, and once the issue was raised, they handled it promptly. For a one-night stay, I felt the service was good, though smoother execution for special requests would have made the experience flawless.

Overall Impression

Hilton Kuala Lumpur offers a comfortable, well-appointed stay with spacious rooms, relaxing bathtubs, delicious breakfast, and attentive staff. My one-night getaway was enjoyable, and despite the minor hiccup with the birthday cake, I left feeling satisfied.

This hotel is ideal for anyone looking for city convenience, comfort, and a touch of luxury, whether you’re traveling for business, leisure, or celebrating a special occasion. A little extra attention to special requests would make it truly perfect.

Rating: 4/5 – Comfortable stay with spacious room, fantastic breakfast, and a memorable birthday twist, but minor service hiccup.

REVIEW: Caffe Latte at The Maruu Ara Damansara: A Simple Takeaway Coffee Spot

Looking for a cozy café in Ara Damansara to grab a coffee on the go? I recently visited The Maruu at 20, Jalan PJU 1A/42B, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, for a takeaway caffe latte, and here’s my honest review.

Ambience & Seating

Even though I took my coffee to go, I had a chance to glance at the café. It has a simple, clean interior with a cozy vibe. The seating is arranged neatly, making it a calm spot for anyone who wants to sit for a short break or casual catch-up.

Coffee & Menu

The caffe latte was smooth and decent—perfect for a casual caffeine fix—but not particularly bold or memorable. The Maruu also offers other drinks and light snacks, but I only tried the coffee. Prices are reasonable, making it a convenient choice for a takeaway.

Service & Comfort

The staff were polite and attentive, and my order was ready in a reasonable time. The café is clean and well-organized, which makes picking up coffee a hassle-free experience.

Accessibility & Parking

The café is easy to reach by car, but parking can be difficult, so takeaway is definitely a convenient option if you’re driving by.

Who It’s Good For

This café is ideal for a casual takeaway coffee while running errands or on your way somewhere. If you’re looking to linger or work, the space is cozy but not particularly striking.

Overall Rating: ⭐⭐⭐/5

Pros:

• Takeaway service in a reasonable time
• Friendly staff
• Clean and neat café

Cons:

• Coffee was decent but not very bold
• Ambience is simple (less impressive if staying)
• Parking can be difficult

Final Thoughts:

If you’re nearby and want a takeaway coffee in Ara Damansara, The Maruu is a solid choice. It’s convenient, comfortable, and gets the job done—but don’t expect it to wow you.
