  2. hmm... could I just check with you on something? the instructions specify a cooked dessert but cendol, to my recollection doesn't require cooking yeah? Sorry if the question sounded a bit silly...

  3. Hi travellingfoodies, sorry for the confusion, I have corrected my post to cook/non-cook dessert also accepted, just no baked dessert. Hope this clear your doubts. :)

    1. Hi Amelia, unfortunately kueh is not accepted for this month's theme. :)

      Delete
    2. Oh no, I thought kuih is accepted as it didn't mention b4 it will not be considered. Nevermind! Thanks for clarifying this!

      Delete
    3. Hi Jessie, guessed nonya kueh is more appropriate for the earlier AB theme: AB#12: Traditional kueh (Oct 2011).

    5. Hi Moon

      Is kulfi included since it is Asian, it's not a kueh and it's not baked? Or is it excluded since it's an ice-cream?

      Thanks.

      Susan

    6. Hi Susan, Kulfi is a kind of ice cream, so it's not accepted.

    1. Ha! It's not a competition. just a monthly theme to bring food bloggers together to share their work and recipes. Hence, Whether there are prizes or not will depends on individual host. for this round, guess it is too late to announce that I have prizes to give? But if prizes can encourage more entries, why not? Ha! Will think of something to give when I host for AB #30 during the month of April 2013. Stay tune and Let me know your thought :)
