Hello,
I wanted to write this page ‘Life&Cake‘ to remember the journey of how I got here.
When I first started baking, it was not all successes. I had my fair share of cake flops, even cupcakes failures 🙄. But there is a certain magic in cakes and I was determined.
So I took the easy way out – cake mix! Betty Crocker became my new BFF. It helped tremendously as the cake was easy to make and one just needed to focus on frosting well and creating that final opera d’arte!
And success keeps us going and excited about the next creation until we are good and ready to declare: Henceforth it shall be, everything from scratch, no more cake mix with preservatives!
“A Party without Cake is a meeting!”
– Julia Child
‘Life&Cake‘ is to remember the inspiration behind, the wonderful cakes that have sojourned with me and made every occasion they graced, a celebration and a Kodak moment!
For those of you who have just started your baking adventure, I share this wise saying
“Cake is happiness. If you know the way of the cake, you know the way of happiness! If you have a cake in front of you, you need not look any further for joy.”
So bake away, be happy and look no further for joy 😊
