Easter Bunny Cake

The day before Easter, I decided to try and make an Easter Bunny cake for the first time. It's not the greatest, but it came out better than expected.

I used a simple vanilla cake and frosting recipe I found on Pinterest, then cut and arranged the cakes on a sheet pan, frosted the cakes, and decorated it with chocolate chip cookies.

It is pretty good! Here are some pictures of the process:

I do plan on making another bunny cake next Easter, as it was fun to make this one. Hope everyone who celebrated Easter, had a wonderful day!

DC Cupcakes

For ages now, I have been a big fan of DC Cupcakes. It is a TV show about Georgetown Cupcakes, a bakery run by two sisters in the Washington, D.C. area, and they have/had their own TLC show that I love watching.
 
I am passionate about baking, so I was really happy when I found out about DC/Georgetown Cupcakes.
 
They ship nationally throughout the U.S., so if you have a taste for something sweet, you can go here, and check out what they have.

Enjoy!!

I'm Back!!

Wow, it's been quite a while since I last updated this blog. Sorry about that!!

I started an Intro to Baking and Pastry class at school the end of January. It's going pretty well so far. I had a minor incident the first time we started baking, where I cut my thumb. But other than that, the class is going smoothly.

We've made cookies, brownies, tarts, petite fours, and a few other things so far.

I love hands on classes like this. It makes class more interesting and fun, and time goes by faster like this, instead of just sitting at a desk, hearing a teacher lecture for an hour or more.

I can't wait to see what else we'll be doing in class!!
