Hey readers,
Due to a recent personal emergency, I’m unable to provide any sweets for now Sorry for the inconvenience!
Friends, if I ever design a rollercoaster, don’t ride it. However, should I design a cake with a rollercoaster on it, feel free to eat it.

Baked for the sole purpose of taking pictures of it (frosting those styrofoam cakes seems odd and taboo to me)
Description:
White cupcakes w/ buttercream frosting sit upon a “basket” of moist chocolate cake.

Okay, aside from not actually updating this site in a while, sometime over the holiday, the server deleted some of the last few posts. Here’s what you missed (or rather what was deleted):
- CupcakeCamp.ca launched! It was awesome.
- I wished you Happy Holidays
- I posted a recipe for a Pastry Lasagna - I will likely post it again (God bless the Facebook RSS feed - who knew Facebook would actually serve some sort of purpose?)
- I bitched about self-rising flour and provided how to make your own (will also re-post since it’s pretty useful)
What I failed to update you guys on:
- CUPCAKECAMP TORONTO! January 25 was an exhausting, chaotic, yet amazing day. Met some GREAT people and learned quite a bit on how to make the next one better. Looking forward to it. Here’s the play-by-play!
- I made Watchmen Cookies - I’ll post pics later
That’s all me these few months, baking-wise. I’ll do my best to keep on top on my baking shenanigans.
Out.

As my second baking pet peeve (a part from my lack of blogging), I hate when frosting warms in your hand as you’re piping and thus losing its pipeable consistency. I was using the leaf tip once and after a few minutes, it started looking like a random blobby strip on my cupcakes. Le sigh…

Disclaimer: Not altogether pleased with how Grover or the sign turned out. And Big Bird’s eyes should be smaller… Okay, I’ll stop now…
This past weekend I was honoured to be recommended by a friend to make someone’s wedding cake. This is my first big gig and I gotta tell ya… I was nervous big time! But the final product was to my liking. Very amateur but I was later told the bride and groom LOVED it — and that all makes it worth it…


Welcome to one of many baking blogs out there! I, in no way, ever claim to be a professional. Hell, half the time I’m just experimenting with flavours, tastes and decorations but then again, aren’t we all?
