Baking Cakes





Jed and I have been doing quite a bit of baking in the last month. Most recently, I made homemade "Hostess" cupcakes just for fun. I found the recipe in a Food Network magazine. Since I had to pipe the icing either way, I decided to put names on our cupcakes!

For my birthday, Jed made a beautiful yellow layer cake with Magnolia Bakery buttercream frosting. And for Greta's birthday, we made her "dream cake"...half chocolate cake, half vanilla cake, white frosting with a rainbow. Consider it done, dear Greta.

Finally, when Owen and John had their birthday bash, Jed made yellow cake with buttercream frosting and my job was to create Thomas the Tank Engine out of frosting (whew!).
