How to Make a Low-Fat Chocolate Cake
In a pastry kitchen, water is often seen as the enemy of chocolate. When tempering chocolate — a process in which melted chocolate is agitated to form the right crystal structure so it dries with a glossy finish and a hard snap — just one drop of water can make the smooth-flowing chocolate seize up into a lumpy mess.
But Janice Wong, pastry chef of 2am Dessert Bar in Singapore — so named after the sweets-only restaurant’s late (or extremely early) closing time — has created a dish to reconcile these old foes. In her Chocolate H2O, which she conceived a year ago for the Madrid Fusion pastry competition, she uses Evian water –her choice after testing five different brands of water for taste and mouth feel — to make a low-guilt (that is, low-calorie and low-fat) chocolate cake.
The varieties are the following: Mousse, Truffle, Caramel Paper, Caramel Sand, Yuzu Sorbet. Here is the idea for Mousse Cake: In a siphon, Ms. Wong adds a batter made from sweetened chocolate, Evian water and egg whites, and freezes the entire mixture until it is semisolid (scoopable, like ice cream). The batter is then pumped out — much as instant whipped cream is sprayed from from an aerosol can — into the shape of a palm-size cake. “I had the ladies watching their figure in mind,” says Ms. Wong about her creation. The final product is flourless and doesn’t contain any cream or butter.
Hi Nancy Lee,
I like your blogs. Keep’em coming.
Thanks, Nancy; Will do!
I’m just curious, why you are referring to Asian women as “tamales”? Wouldn’t that term be more appropriate for Latinas?
Figure of speech. I like to use it because we are hot tamales. There is nothing wrong with crossing racial boundaries. Is there? Whoopi Goldberg?
Thank you for your suggestion Nancy. We are actually working on doing that right now. Any specific prizes you have in mind? Just let me know.
hey thanks for the add.. aww i miss tokyo so much 🙁

hey! when is this place getting chat :O id be Very convenient
I just talked to them tonight and they said it’s the next thing on their agenda! So you have an Asian fetish? I hope you read my sex articles. I have a new article I am working on. You will like it!
I’ll have one later in my costume.
Why no photo .. .. yet?
Tsk! Tsk!
Waiting for that!
If I can dig up my old photos, I may post one too, just for the spirit of it.
Hey Nancy Lee. I’ve truly enjoyed reading your articles. You’re courageous as hell and it’s a shame so many uptight politically-correct retards disparage your cheeky subject-matter. I guess the price of a democratic-style forum is that self-proclaimed genuises that prowl the web for articles that offend them, get to write paragraphs of text that prove what a boring baby they truly are. I love this site and the articles but the multitude of illiterate idiots that write here is astonishing. The funny part, they’re not even asian! Keep up the good work because for every dumbass that writes a rude response, there are 1000 people that understand your benevolent and iconoclastic writing approach. Your articles are a godsend for Asian American women.
That is why we are encouraging people to upload their own articles because we have so many and it will be much quicker to approve these articles.
These comments on your profile are hysterical.
ewwww. Did you say you are an Asian Fetisher and own an Asian? Gross!
Attracting a lot of wierdos lately Nancy? I told you to stay away from them. You will be a much better person.
Maybe I should have labeled this. JOKE! She owns my heart. In that sense, she owns me.
Fetisher, just hell no. OK?
Well, that seemed right obvious to me that I was joking. Please except my humble apology.
Their is no such word as fetisher.
“self-proclaimed genuises that prowl the web for articles that offend them”.
Now that’s funny. It is my take on the situation.
Like you work. Your brave. Might help some people. Really nice that people can say what they want.
Asian Fetisher. I have my own Asian. Yes, I said I own her. And she owns me. And I got the better deal! God is good.
Calling all young ladies!! Write this recipe down pronto! You will all thank me later. At a certain time of the month, you will find me ready to be sent to the Betty Crocker Clinic if I do not find enough ready to eat low fat chocolate around the house. Do you know what I mean?? It can become a state of emergency similar to a pregnancy craving except that it is every single month! I tried out a recipe very similar to this one and it does the trick minus the calories!
In high school, my friends and I used to say “hot females”, pronouncing the latter word to rhyme with “tamales”, not that we ever really spoke to any of those in those days. 😛
Love her so many white guys here posting . Ah Asian fever is alive and well
Hi Nancy Lee,

You’re pretty no doubt, but you have a very ugly attitude and personality. PEACE!!
Thanks genius!
Hi Nancy,
I just read your article “Asian men vs. Black men” and I couldn’t help but wonder if you thought black men were better in bed than Asian men since you. barely wrote anything regarding the sexual prowess of Asian men other than they have little better. As an Asian Guy I would like to believe that a vocal Asian woman like yourself would find at least find us comparable to black men in bed. Best
I feel sorry about you slut!! How can you compare asian
Men and black men and put down your own race bitch you don’t even sound like a women a real women doesn’t promote fake stereotypes and hatred among races. You don’t judge a men by the color of his
Skin you judge a man by the man that is within!!! And you the only women I ever
Heard of the call the black men the alpha male?? I heard many call the white and latino the alpha male
But never the black men!! You should be ashamed of yourself!! We all know the asian
Guys don’t have a lot of confidence and you clearly are not helping them to get more confidence
But what goes around comes around and sometime the knight is kill by his own sword and HIV with black men is not a stereotype is a fact so don’t be surprise if one day you get HIV by a black men and die slowly in bed while remembering how hard you tried to
Uplift black men and they were the end of your miserable and worthless life. Your are the
Lowest human and you shouldn’t even call yourself a women
Hi! I am trying to get a hold of you for a story I’m writing on fake bloggers / party crashers. Saw this post you wrote:
http://www.asiancemagazine.com/2012/05/10/does-anyone-know-who-this-fake-blogger-is
What is the best way to reach you?
why? Who is this?
Thank you for your kind words..And no, I don’t judge a man by the color of his skin. I judge a man by the size of his dong. Get over it, mini me! I mean Winston Wu is a Big Lu!
Not in my experience.sorry! Despite my bad experiences, it has not scarred me and I am willing to try it out again, should one pique my interest.
Your parent must loose face after finding out you suck and fuck many blacks. There’s one word: Slut! And you wear that proudly. Now that u made your parents loose face but you realized you couldn’t find yourself an asian guy or girl because they won’t touch you with a 10ft electrical pole. Your anger towards asian as a result of your pen up fustration trying hard to go find a mate of your own. NO ONE TAKES U SERIOUSLY. LOOK IN THE MIRROR AND KNOW THAT U R A SLUT, A SLUT WITH ANGER PROBLEM. SO CONTINUE TAKING IT IN YOUR ANAL SO THAT IT WILL HELP U ALEVIATE SOME OF UR ANGRY TOWARDS UR OWN KIND. ONE WORD WORTH REPEATING: SLUT SLUT SLUT !
Did you mean ‘LOSE Face’? hahah! I guess you haven’t read ALL my articles and blog posts. Just the ‘black man’ one. Let’s be honest, who is really the racist here? And I do date Asian guys, just not ones with anger issues like you. Winston Lu is this you?
Asiancemagzine is a disgrace allowing your racial hatre rants against asian males. Remember this, the vast majority of your users on this website are asian woman married to asian men. So to throw racial slurt at their husbands is the same as saying to these womens face.
We realized going for the shock value is something u aspire to do on behalf of Asiancemagazine, but at the expense of your users, predominantly asian woman. To insult their spouse is to insult these asian woman, your base,your users.
We urge Asiancemagazine’s owners to immediately cease Nancy Lee’s blog. We know that Asiancenagazine is not a racist site. However sitting silent and do nothing is the same as tolerating the stupid shit she makes up.
Yes a man’s dick different size, small to latge. It’s what u do with it that counts way more than any2 else. Who the fuck cares if we have small dicks. It’s the RACIAL SLURS YOU ARE THROWING AROUND THAT IS UNACCEPTABLE. WHY WOULD YOU WANT TO INSULT YOUR READERS AND USERS, PREDOMINANTLY ASIAN WOMEN AND AND MOST OF THEIR ASIAN HUSBANDS.
WE SINCERELY URGE YOU TO DISASSOCIATE YOURSELF FROM Nancy Lee’s blog. It has no place. At least on your site.
Sincerely,
American Asian of Northern California.
Your rant against asian male is just a reflection of deeper issue u have. Obviously u r thinking about the next black long dong cock u wanna suck. Have fun but once u insult asian we will go all out on u fucking slutty cun. A cun not worthy to b a part of the Chinese race.
Your are not Chinese. a proper chinese would never brag about their sexual escapede because of the adverse implication it has on u. No worry your blog is being passed along so that the Asian community knows your hatre, throwing bullshit rants against the asian male. We will gather enough masses to boycott Asiancemagazine’s site as a legit protest against your hatre against asian males. Shit like that has no place on the Asiancenagazine site as it supposeldy a largely asian female users. U R INSULTING THESE FEMALE’S HUSBANDS, DAD, UNCLEA AND GRANDFATHERs. ASIANCENAGAZINE HAS NO PLACE FOR U AS A LOSER BLOGGER AS IT REPRESENTS HATEFUL,LAUGHING AT THE ASIAN MALE LIKE CHARLIE CHAN MOVIES. WHAT U THINL.IS FUNNY IS AN ABSOLUTE INSULT TO THE ASIAN MALE.
ASIANCENAGAZINE PLEASE REMOVE AND DISASSOCIATE YOUR SITE FROM NANCY LEE’S BLOG. U CANNOT INSLUT YOUR SITE USERS AS THEY CAN BOYCOTT. WE WILL CONTACT ALL YOUR ADVERTISERS TO MAKE THEM AWARE OF THE RACIST RANTS AGAINST ASIAN MALES.
SINCERELY,
ASIAN AMERICAN ALIANCE OF NORTHERN CALIFORNIA

Hey NancyLee when can we expect another positing from you. Your writing is interesting and bold. Your candor and the give-no-fucks persona I’m down with.
On another note i can sympathize with a few male posters in your comment sections of your profile wall, but complaining about racism while at the same instance showing the same racist bigotry directed at black males makes their complaints of racism moot.
You got it! She is a slut big time! And she calls all the men that visit this site perverts. Not the case! Most are smart enough to realize that she’s the pervert and most likely carries a ton of S.T.D.’s
Stop giving this bitch attention she says she doesn’t look at color then puts down Asian men saying Asian men are bad all over the Internet LISTEN this is pointless of course they are Asian men with big dongs who are extremely good in bed. ( me being one 🙂 I guess I’m blessed) she prob gets off on this prob bc she has been bullied by whites and blacks when she was younger and has an ingrained twisted psyche on unsubconcsienly putting down her own race seen this often… Sad… She will never be happy and never be able to be fully accepted in either culture… Sad
