Okay, this one is about, as the title suggests, my "baking endeavors." Call them what you will, they are the adventures I have had while trying to expand my talents to include baked treats . . . namely, cake. While my decorating skills aren't always working how I'd like them to, I am too stubborn to make a cake and then let someone else frost it because I'm having a hard time. *grin* That habit --coupled with the fact that I tend to forget that if you use a bag of decorator frosting nonstop for too long, your hands will warm it until it turns into decorator slush-- makes for some very interesting cakes. I can't tell you how many times I have had to improvise when my frosting turned to liquid.
Anyway, today will be featuring my sugary culinary talents. So if you'd care to take a trip down Bakery Lane with me, here they are:
A birthday bumblebee cake.
A heart cake with butterfly.
And these are pictures of swirls I made in the batter before it was baking. Playing with colors on a cake is so much fun!
There's been more, but that's all that I'm sharing for now. Stay tuned; I've been getting more of my story written. A snippet might be just around the corner!
Which cake was your favorite?

ReplyDeleteCool! Cake decorating sounds like fun. :) I like the bumblebee one the best; it's cute! :)
ReplyDeleteOh, yes, cake decorating is fun. Though it can be stressful for me personally, because I am a bit of a perfectionist when it comes to creating beauty with frosting.
DeleteWow, good job, girl!!
