Evening Sprout’s House residents! I hope
you have all had a good weekend?! I am in the process of de-lurgifying myself
after a week of germ warfare, so it’ll just be a short post tonight.
As Sprout is turning three next week, my
foggy, mucus filled brain cells having been pondering the CAKE issue!! Now, I
am by no means a cook. In fact, truth be
known Sprout’s Daddy does most of the cooking, but I do like to dabble. So it
has become a little ritual each year that I spend some time researching
birthday cakes.
For Sprout’s first birthday, I used my
fabulous Hummingbird Bakery Cookbook and made cupcakes similar to these arranged in the
shape of a number one.
Last year, I decided to get a bit more
adventurous. Sprout was going through a ‘nee naw’ (fire engine) phase, so I
made a fire engine cake. I can’t tell you how much red food colouring it took
to take the cake from salmon pink to fire engine red. Best not to think about
it….
This year, I have returned to the cupcake
theme but on a GIANT scale……..
Hmm…I think I might have bitten off more
than I can chew?!! Apparently, this thing needs a 6 egg cake mix. I’m not even
sure what that is….. Serious internet research will be required to take on the
GIANT CUPCAKE!!
