To Infinity & Beyond!
Monday, May 23rd, 2011I love baking for friends, but even more so, I love baking for family.
Our son recently turned three, and his request was for a Toy Story themed cake.
I had so much fun putting this together for him.
The bottom layer was chocolate with raspberry filling and the top was vanilla with buttercream.
And he absolutely loved it.
We also had vanilla cupcakes.
As a special thanks, Buzz Lightyear themed cookies were sent home as favors.
Happy birthday to our little guy!
27th Heaven
Friday, November 6th, 2009On November 4, 2009 the NY Yankees won their 27th World Series, in Game 6 at home against the Phillies.
My husband and I are long-time Yankees fans, and were also celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary. What a night!
Today, at 11am, the city of NY is hosting a ticker tape parade for the Champions. I couldn’t resist the chance to bake a little something to help celebrate.
Cutout cookies in the shape of jerseys, honoring team captain Derek Jeter, and WS MVP Hideki Matsui. They are almost too cute to eat.
Almost.
I also experimented with some new techniques this time, for a more precise cutout shape, and a new icing, which is just as good as my old one, and a little easier to use. Thumbs up for new techniques.
CONGRATULATIONS TO THE YANKEES!
