Yeah….so…..the 35 weeks of baking hit a hard wall. I cannot even explain it, but I literally could not bring myself to blog. I was and still am baking and I usually remember to take pictures, but sitting at the computer and editing images and then writing about the experience seemed so daunting and add to the fact that time just would not stop. But I am not the one to give up. I am just tweaking or adapting the plan. I have lost track of the weeks and have had several weeks without baking so I will just bake when I can and post when I remember. With the holidays coming up, I suspect there shall be a great frequency of posts.
My son’s 4th birthday was in August and, true to my rule of “only one”, he did not have a party. We had our dessert ceremony as a family or four plus the in-laws and went on a mini-trip planned with the munchkin in mind (The rule of “Only One” is that only one kid gets a birthday a year and the other gets a trip or a day of their choosing-from meals to some fun location).
This dessert was so fun to make. It’s a Neapolitan cupcake! Basically a chocolate layer and vanilla layer of cake and a strawberry frosting on top. My layers did not come out as defined as the picture from the original post and when I removed the cupcakes from the oven, you could see the chocolate bubbled through the vanilla. The bonus, is that the frosting covered it up and it tasted delicious.
I guess I can say this was just a fun dessert with a cherry on top.
