Happy Birthday Chris Cake



Chis is a volunteer in our office at work. His wife, lovely Beth, asked Chris what he wanted for his birthday and he said a chocolate cake. And so, here it is chocholate fudge cake with milk chocloate butter cream icing and dark chocolate ganache filling, with just an accent of white chocolate. I don't know how you get more chocolate than this!


All new recipes, which is always fun, but a little worrisome when it's for someone else.

Now, onto this week's cake adventure... I'll tell you this. It's a car.

More life than Cake




It has been months since I've posted anything here. I have been busy with work, new friends, and being a bride. Since the award-winning cake at the Central Florida Fair, I've had a few opportunities for cake making and many of not come to fruition. Here's a photo of me at the fair with my first place ribbon! This was in the Amateur, Wedding Cake, Four Tiers or taller category. Yay me! I can't believe I hadn't posted that news here for months.

I am back on the cake wagon though, one cake this week and another coming up next week-- next week's will be a new adventure, so check back and wish me luck!
