Mom's Birthday Cake Finished!!

I finished my mom's birthday cake last Tuesday! I actually did it on Tuesday because I couldn't wait to make it. And today is Friday! I can't wait to taste it tonight! The cake looks pretty nice, but I hoped for something a little different. I will tell you the difficulties I had with making the cake. But first, here's what it looks like now: 

 Difficulties: 

 So when I was putting on the chocolate frosting and trying to smooth it out, it started to harden kind of like really fast, so when I tried smoothing it out, it made it worse! So next time when I make another cake, I have to move fast. Plus, I didn't actually have a smoother because I usually use our bread cutter, but that works fine, so I was looking for it all over the kitchen, but finally, I found it, and I tried using it, but it was too late the frosting didn't want to smooth out! And also the cake is also leaning a bit after I put the flowers and all the decorations on it so I couldn't fix it, which is also bothering me very much. And I should have put more raspberry filling in the middle. I don't think I put much in there. That is all my difficulties. I think. But I did have fun decorating and baking the cakes!

I Made a Cake For Fourth of July!!

I made a cake that has the American flag on it, and we are going to be eating it this Friday because Fridays are the days we usually go with our friends to the lake club and have dinner. So I will be bringing it to the lake club Friday. It represents the Fourth of July. I am also hopefully going to be making another cake for fireworks at the lake club that we are also going to be going to. But that is next week, so I will wait a few days before making that cake. 

The cake is a spice cake. And I used cream cheese frosting! I LOVE cream cheese frosting because it just tastes soo good!! The funny thing is that I don't like cream cheese, but it does taste so good for frosting!! Regular butter frosting tastes too sweet for me. Cream cheese frosting is very sweet, but it is a lot better than regular frosting, in my opinion. So I used cream cheese frosting. I died it red, white, and blue and just piped it on! Oh, I forgot to say that for the cake I died it red, white and blue also but I didn't die one layer red and another layer white and the other layer blue. I died one layer of red, white, and blue. So it has a cool design in the middle! I have done it before with other colors, and it turned out great! So hopefully, it will look cool on the inside again for this cake. Here is a picture of the cake:

I will post another picture when we cut into it Friday so you can see the design in the cake. 

I Made A Cake!

I made a cake two days ago. 

But I messed it up. I messed up on the frosting part. How I did it was I think I put too much butter or didn’t let it mix longer and just did something with it. The texture of the frosting was like eating butter. I really didn’t like it. I really wanted to redo it but I couldn’t because I just went out of the powdered sugar. So I just left it how it was and put a pretty design on it. 

Here is the picture of the cake!


The cake itself I didn’t really like too because just something about it. Well I did kind of messed up on the recipe. I was putting all the dry ingredients in the mixing bowl like it said and when I was still putting the dry ingredients, I accidentally put the milk in! And I didn’t want to throw away anything so I left it like that. I was pretty sure it was ok. But when I tasted it I think it was just not fluffy enough. I don’t know. I still ate it because it wasn’t too bad. 

And the next time I make a cake I want to put some lemon in it or something instead of a plane white cake. And I want to get fondant for the cake so it will be nice and smooth! And not mess up on the frosting and put a beautiful design for the cake with the frosting!

This week and last week I made, two batches of donuts, carrot cake, and the white cake that I just made too. 

I have a picture of the carrot cake I made!

The carrot cake was really good!!

Whenever I just finished baking something or decorating something I just want to bake another thing! And I don’t really want to eat it, I just want to bake and decorate! Actually that could be a great t-shirt or apron! I just want to bake and decorate!!
