Easter Weekend.

I was supposed to bring a dessert for the family Easter function and since I like making cakes. I did one and some cupcakes.
I got a two piece egg shaped pan and a cupcake decorating set the last time I was in the City and they came in handy this weekend.
The bismark tip was helpful in filling up the cupcakes, hubby did the filling for me. We just used vanilla pudding.

Buttercream Icing.

The flowers turned out alright, I didn't do well with the spiral top because the icing was too thick, not sure what I did there. The dots though take some practice.

I really have to learn to take my time or give myself time when doing cakes because I keep rushing through them and it ends up being sloppy. So I'm not impressed with my cake decorating right now. I need to practice more but honestly I eat the icing and the cake, so it's a no win for me caloriewise.

I'm sorry I haven't been posting much lately and there is a reason. I haven't been cooking as much or trying out new recipes. I'm packing up my house, I'm tired from work and 3 kids. We move sometime next month and just the thought of cooking in this tiny kitchen now makes my heart stop when I think of the beautiful kitchen I'll have in a month or so. I will try better. I'm going to be doing some cooking this long weekend and making an egg shaped cake. So I will keep you posted and I promise once in my new kitchen I'll get back to it. Thanks for reading.

Mmmmm Bread!

My New Bosche!

I got it a few weeks ago. It was on sale becuase they were putting out a new model but I love this one. I haven't had much of a chance to use it lately but I will post a great bread recipe I made with it.
