Cowboys Don't Take Showers

Here's a large double chocolate cake I made for a little boy's baby shower a few weeks ago. The hostesses requested that it not be "too baby", but I couldn't help adding a few feminine flowers for the women who would be devouring the cake.

Welcome Baby Boy Cook!

The Big Tumblebus, It Is'a Comin' Down The Street

And it's for Isaac. All a brand new four-year-old needs is chocolate cake with orange frosting and a travling gymnastics bus. Pretty exciting.

A few weeks ago, I began working on what I will entitle "Adrian's Baking Projects". ABP #1, individual pavlovas. They were perfect. Lightly sweetened and crisp meringue cups filled with chantilly cream and topped with sugared fruit. Mmm, the sweet taste of success.

You can certainly order any of the baking projects I'm working on this spring, or if you'd like, feel inspired to go out and make your own. There's no time like the present for creating delicious dishes in the kitchen that everyone will enjoy!

Cupcakes

I've had a great time making and decorating cupcakes. Generally, they're created to use up leftover buttercream or cake batter and sent to my husband's workplace or my mother's school. However they come about, individually portioned, very tasty cakes are always a hit and a great addition to any day.
