Coffee and Nougat Cake

Happy Birthday to my Dad! :)

The Farmer is coming to visit us in Durbs today for a birthday lunch, so I decided to make him a birthday cake....given that he likes nougat, I thought i would be nice to top the cake with some chopped up pieces of Sally Hansens finest...although it has to be said that when the cake was finished it looked a lot more like it was topped with popcorn than it looked like it was topped with nougat....it was delish all the same!

Sometimes just because, is good enough

You know how sometimes you feel like doing something nice for a friend, just because you can? Well yesterday was one of those days for me, and I baked this coffee cupcake for a friend just because I could, just because she great - and I felt like she needed reminding of how much I appreciate her.

Madame Z was awesome - thanks my friend, you rock!

Happy Birthday Rodi

The first of June was my friend Kerry's birthday, and she asked me to make some cupcakes for her office. Seeing as thought she needed me to make three batches, I figured it would be a good time to bust out a new recipe....first time for coffee cupcakes....dhum, dhum, dhuuummm....

The result was three batches of cupcakes - one chocolate, one vanilla, and one coffee - all house in black and white polka dot holders and covered in purple sparky bits. It's been two days since these cakes wen't out into the world, and reviews so far have only been positive, so it seems like I might be on to a winning recipe. Great!

Happy Birthday Rodi - hope you had a fantastic day my friend :)
