I’m so sorry I did not post anything the last 10 days. I was just… busy and tired. But believe me, I baked a lot and you will receive further information this week. However, many things have happened so far and one important of them was my boyfriends 18th birthday. 18. Hard to believe for me. Now he can drive his car without a parent, buy any kind of alcohol, sign all his documents on his own etc. Well, not THAT impressive to me :P. But it is a birthday, still, so why not just celebrate? According to this occasion, I prepared treats as a dessert for the parties, which made me super happy, of course :). The following pictures will show you the result of my work.

The first party was just a small one and besides, my cake was not the only one. So I decided to make a tiny heart cake using the idea of I am baker. A mini cake with a even smaller heart inside – challenge accepted.

The second party included more guests, so I made two things:

A rainbow cake, which was originally made by Whisk kid, but I used the cake recipe of Love and Olive Oil. Between the layers I put less buttercream frosting and decorated it with beaten heavy cream and cake crumbs. It was definitely worth the hard work – seeing all the people watch the colourful layers shining under the white cream… Which made them want a piece at once.

I wanted the other treat to fit the rainbow cake in some way, so I made colourfil muffins with the same cookie crumbs on top of their frosting. I will share the recipe for the vanilla dough with you later this week, as these are my go-to vanilla cupcakes.

Please keep patient, new posts are coming soon.
