This Funnel Cake Will Be The Highlight of Your Week
"We'll go to the food court and get one of those funnel cakes you love.". So says the wife trying to mollify her husband after refusing to purchase him a two thousand and four hundred-dollar designer suit. Pouting ensues, before, finally accepting his fate, the hubby replies "We'll get a funnel cake - it'll be… Continue reading This Funnel Cake Will Be The Highlight of Your Week
Pumpkin Crunch Cake
If you are familiar with dump cake, you'll see the genius of this recipe immediately. My mom used to make dump cake when I was a kid. I'll have to post that "recipe" sometime soon. It's essentially canned fruit, topped with dry cake mix and smothered with butter. Not really a cake in the traditional… Continue reading Pumpkin Crunch Cake
Under Construction Cake
Do you remember counting down the days til your birthday? Yeah, it's been a while since I've done that too. But every year I try to put myself back in that childhood mode when the countdown started the day after your last birthday. Turned 4 last week? You are TOTALLY almost 5. In my opinion,… Continue reading Under Construction Cake
Rainbow Happiness Six Layer Cake
We had the mother of all rainbow birthdays this weekend for my sweet six-year-old Madison. My house looked like a unicorn threw up all over. It was epic fun. A hyperactivity inducing, spectrum spectacular. Brightly colored craziness. We had a blast. The pièce de résistance of the party was a stunning six layer rainbow cake.… Continue reading Rainbow Happiness Six Layer Cake
Birthday Cake Cookies
I discovered the most disturbing thing last weekend. There are people who (brace yourself...this is earth shattering news) don't like cake. Seriously? I thought my crazy husband was the only genetically deficient (and I mean that in the nicest way possible) one. But apparently, there are more of you out there. One of them is… Continue reading Birthday Cake Cookies
Country Blueberry Monkey Bread
Monkey bread is the devil. I cannot resist it. I especially enjoy a new spin on it, like adding some kind of new flavor to the delicious combo of cinnamon sugar and buttery goodness. I can more readily call it breakfast if it includes fruit which makes this blueberry filled bread perfect for supporting my… Continue reading Country Blueberry Monkey Bread
Crusting Buttercream & The Great Cupcake Pan
This week I had the tremendous privilege of making the topper for a wedding tower. The bride and groom wanted a giant cupcake, so that's what they got. I tested out several buttercream recipes and absolutely loved this one. It tastes delicious and crusts up beautifully but is still soft enough to cut thru. I… Continue reading Crusting Buttercream & The Great Cupcake Pan
Strawberry Dream Cake
I can honestly tell you that this recipe was a present for me. From God. No joke. Let me explain. Some lovely people I know just got married. A few days before the wedding I agreed to help out by making a giant cupcake for them to cut into for the smash-cake-in-your-face moment at the… Continue reading Strawberry Dream Cake
Scratch Cake Mixes & Strawberry Cream
I've mentioned a few times that I'm taking a cake decorating class. I'm enjoying it tremendously and learning all sorts of fun things. Don't judge my decorating skills too harshly, I'm still learning. I found this cake mix recipe years ago and it has never failed me. Perfect if you don't want to make a… Continue reading Scratch Cake Mixes & Strawberry Cream
