Soy Collagen Jello with Lemon Marmalade Sauce

Hi!
It's already December.
It's my birth month!!!
I'm not that happy to get older, but I am looking forward to going out for a dinner with my boyfriend :)
He said we are going out on this Friday!
Actually, my birthday is the 9th but we might go out with my parents on the weekend, so that is why.

Good news!!!
On Saturday I won the highest award at Megami's Recipes site!
The award-winning recipe is "Christmas Tofu", that I posted here last week.
As I wrote before, the Megami's Recipes site is directed by Yukio Hattori, best known as an expert commentator on the Japanese television show Iron Chef.
I received a few comments from him, which is very valuable!!!

Writing about my work.
On Sunday, I created 5 new recipes.
One of them is "Soy Collagen Jello with Lemon Marmalade Sauce".
Recently, there are a lot of food products containing collagen (especially the food products that target women) in Japan.
As I get older, I become interested in skin care.
Lotte Japan sell a collagen powder that contains 10000mg with vitamin C! I used this powder to make the soy jello.

The recipe in Japanese is here.
I will write in English if anyone wants.

Tomorrow, I will write about another collagen-related recipe!
See you :)

Long Layer Jewel Strawberry Shortcake

This morning, I changed my shoes to sneakers.
I didn't feel any pain, so I was in a happy mood :)
However, what made me mad was happened on the train...
I was standing with my back against the rail of the seats.
The men seated behind suddenly gave a tug at my hair!!!
Can you believe it?!
It seems like he was annoyed by my long hair, but he shouldn't do such a thing without notice!!!
I was going to warn him but didn't...
He looks like a normal corporate employee but could be a freak!
I didn't want to haggle over so I kept my temper.
I hate to commute by train!

Anyway, back to my cooking :)
As I said yesterday, I have a gorgeous Christmas cake recipe!
I garnished a long layer strawberry shortcake with cookies decorated with silver and pink argent.
This is my taste!
I love pink and glittering stuff.

Here is the recipe.
Again in Japanese, sorry.
I will write in English if anyone wants.

Okay! See you next week!

Triple-Layer Christmas Chocolate Cake

Every morning, since few weeks ago, I feel pain in between my toes (fourth finger and pinkie).
I thought it might be a hard corn, but seems like callus...
Anyway, I shouldn't wear shoes that pinch my toes :(

Christmas is coming! So today, I will present one of my Christmas cakes: Triple-Layer Christmas Chocolate Cake!
This is not that difficult.
I used chocolate, coffee, and plain buttercream fillings for the thin chocolate sponge cakes.
Then I covered the cake in a chocolate coating, garnished with edible flowers (roses), and dusted them lightly with powdered sugar.

I posted this recipe at Lettuceclub (one of the sites I post recipes).
Few months ago, they put out a call for Christmas cake recipes.
There were more other themes as well and I created more than 40 recipes to challenge all, but none of them won prizes...
Ooops!!! Just moaning about it...

Here is the recipe.
Sorry in Japanese.
I will write in English if anyone wants.

Tomorrow I will show you my gorgeous Christmas cake :)
Bye Bye!
