Happy 23rd Birthday, Irene!

My roomie turned 23 today! Happy birthday sweetie, you've finally caught up to me.

I finished a med school interview on Wednesday afternoon, flew home in the evening, and started baking this Asian bakery-style cake for the occasion the second I got back.

We went to Co Co. Sala for her birthday dinner (sooo good btw, must return soon) and came back for dessert. Pictured here is Vivi, who can hardly wait for us to cut the cake.

I've made a similar cake before (post here with recipe!) but it finally looks as good as it tastes :)
