Hubby's Birthday

My dear hubby's and Shawn's birthday falls on April. My hubby loves this New York Cheese Cake since having it once in Secret Recipe. My distributor HW brought us there when he is back from Singapore.

This is New York CheeseCake before I decorate it.

I made this cheesecake specially for Simon ~my hubby~ for his birthday.
