I did have two things happen in my baking world since last time. I made cupcakes for a teenagers birthday this past weekend and I have an order for a graduation cake in June.
The cupcakes were a big hit. The only down side was there wasn't enough. The mom didn't expect as many as she did, so 2 dozen cupcakes went really fast. Here is the final result:
They were half and half..yellow and chocolate with buttercream icing.
The graduation cake will be a red velvet cake and will be shaped like the front page of a newspaper. I am going to decorated it with a graduation cap and the school mascot. I plan on making them out of chocolate, so they will be edible. I will post pictures of the completed product.
I will also have my daughter's birthday cake to do at the end of the month. This year I need to be a little more creative. She picked Clubhouse Mickey as her theme. There is only one Mickey Mouse shaped cake pan that I could find and as cute as it is I want more for her. So, I will need to brainstorm and out sketch out a few things. I am a little worried I won't come up with something, but I can just here my friends all saying...."You know will think of something and it will be great." I just hope so. I am open to suggestions.
Last thing is this. I was thinking of doing a little more with the blog itself. It of course will still be baking and my baking adventures, but I was thinking of expanding it and possibly talking other things too. Such as tips and links to other things I find on the web. What do you think? Please be honest with me and tell me I am insane. Don't worry I can handle it.... I think.
Well, until next time....... Happy Baking!
