Royal Icing for Decorating Cookies & Cakes
This is a hybrid recipe for Royal Icing that produces good results…
Bailey’s Irish Creme Cake
I found a version of this recipe that turned out pretty good, but thought I could improve on it. So I combined a bunch of other recipes I have to come up with this one. This cake is dessert heaven.
Pumpkin Layer Cheesecake
This is a combination of recipes I found online. Turned out pretty good, especially with the extra fixings! If you use the boiling water bath method to bake your cheesecake, you should have a perfect cake with no cracks.
Clear Fruit Glaze for Cakes & Pies
This is pretty good stuff. It will make your cake or pie look like it was made professionally and it helps keep your cut berries looking fresh until serving time. It tastes pretty darn good, too.
White Almond Sour Cream Wedding Cake with Raspberry Filling
Found this recipe online, but it was for a full-on wedding cake for 40-50 people. I halved everything and it worked out nicely. A very rich and moist cake. Made this one for your dad’s 60th birthday and all of our friends really loved it, as did your Pop.
Blueberry Boy Bait
This is a really, really good recipe that is light and super easy to make. Might be good with frozen raspberries or canned pineapple chunks.
Moist Pina Colada Layer Cake
This was a hit when the Frenchies (my uncle Manu and cousin Valerie) came to visit Grandma in June, 2015. My uncle Rene from Detroit was here, too and he really loved this cake, which was a huge compliment coming from a career baker. Although the ingredients and instructions seem daunting, this is an easy cake to make. So go for it!
Easy Awesome Food Processor Cheesecake
Pretty darn easy cheesecake that you make using a food processor. Created this from a variety of recipes I found online, together with some really good tips for making a cheesecake without cracks.
Favorite Mocha Cake
This one takes some time to make but it’s definitely worth the effort. Best if refrigerated for a day or two before serving, which gives the flavors a good chance to marry.
Amazing Vanilla Frosting
This is a knock-your-socks-off frosting that is not too sweet, but super light & yummy. It won’t overwhelm your cake or cupcakes and this recipe makes enough to frost a three-tier cake AND have leftovers for white on white decorating… or get creative and add some color! Check out the tips for frosting your cake below the recipe.
