A could weeks ago, I was asked by a dear friend at my church if I could team-teach a cake & cupcake activity night. I happily agreed, but when I hung up the phone afterwards, my stomach immediately started practicing its sailor knots.
But then I thought it'd be a fun opportunity to share what little I know (I'm serious! I'm still learning so much!) about cake decorating. Plus, it gave me a fun excuse to teach myself the "rosette" cake decorating technique I've seen all over Pinterest. I ended up adding a few little yellow pears to dress it up a bit - I think it turned out lovely!
If you're looking for my Almond-Infused Cream Cheese Recipe, aka my favorite recipe on the entire planet, it's here.
I ended up making this almond cream cheese frosted carrot cake, a 4 layer-pink ombre cake frosted with white chocolate raspberry frosting (to come, my darlings), a red velvet cake frosted with almond cream cheese frosting, and a zebra-striped cake (inside striped with fudge and white chocolate cake) frosted with cocoa butter cream and coated with chocolate sprinkles.
Everyone was so nice, and I loved having a reason to make a few lovely cakes.

This is gorgeous! I wish I could have taken your class!
ReplyDeleteThis is truly one of the most beautiful cakes I have ever seen. Wow. This would make an amazing wedding cake.
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love your rosette cake! I'm going to try and make one for my daughters second birthday! Any tips or tricks that you have would be great:)!
