No, seriously, I do. I LOVE cake, you really have no idea how much....

Welcome to my new blog. I should let you know that my passion for cake began in the winter of 2006 after the birth of my second son. I found a cake that I love and then ate it every day....EVERY day...I kid you not! From there I began looking at cakes in whole new way and found that I really appreciate a good cake. I have recently started a cake decorating course and hope one day to be the maker of my own delicious cakes; to make them not only for myself but for others to enjoy too (yes! I have finally decided to share!!). Follow me in my journey from cake connoisseur to cake decorator!! Enjoy...I know I will!!

Attempt number two!

So I am a bit more pleased with this latest attempt. I realized though, a little too late, that in my attempt to make a less 'rip-able' icing, I added a bit too much water and it became too thin and slippery. This means that it didn't 'crust' quite the way it should have and I was not able to smooth it out like I would have wanted. Oh well...I'm sure it still quite edible!! This cake is going with the kids to the sitter's house tomorrow.

**note...the reason that it says "Mr Sun" is because Oliver and I both enjoy singing "Mr Sun, Sun, Mr Golden Sun, please shine down on me...." and I was thinking of Oliver while making the cake!
