Made up my own craving creation by baking a chocolate loaf cake, toasting some marshmallows and tossing some graham cracker crumbs over everything! Little s’mores cake! Now to make a cup of hot tea to go with this while the city thaws out. #baking
I’m so glad you liked it! 🥰 HAPPY BIRTHDAYYYYYY!
A pineapple upside down cake for my bestie for his birthday! 🎉 First attempt at one and I’m happy with how it turned out! 🍍🍒 #baking #cake
When your bestie gets you a Kiki outfit for your Labubu, you do a photoshoot. Toffee Kiki is featuring my Hokkaido Milk Bread loaf and a bit o’ strawberry preserves. Now to make some tea! #baking #labubu
It’s National Blueberry Muffin Day! I don’t need an excuse to make these delicious and fluffy muffins though. A little lemon zest, fresh blueberries, and a slight crunch of sugar crystals on top? 🤤 #baking #blueberrymuffins
I completely forgot to post a slice of the haupia pie from yesterday! This is what the layers look like with chocolate and then coconut! Like most pies, this one also tasted even better the next day! 🌴 🥥 #baking #pie
Haupia pie using Sugar Geek’s recipe! It’s more of a pudding like pie and delicious with coconut and chocolate! Stitch enjoyed it for sure 😂🏝️🥥 #baking #haupiapie #stitch #liloandstitch
Happy Easter! Some no bake bird’s nest cookies with mini Cadbury eggs are today’s treat around here! Think I’ll go make a cup of tea with one! 🐰 🪺 🫖 #baking #easter
Nothing makes the house smell more warm and inviting than cinnamon! Fresh cinnamon rolls with cream cheese frosting! Used my homemade Sri Lankan vanilla extract and *chef’s kiss* Also had to show my lil crocheted Bigfoot my bestie made for me enjoying a roll too! #baking #cinnamonrolls
Sakura sugar cookies for spring! I used real cherry blossom powder and made a cup of genmaicha tea. A very lovely morning while enjoying my flowers and hummingbirds outside. 🌸 #baking #sakura #cherryblossoms
It’s national coffee cake day, but I just wanted an excuse to try out King Arthur Baking Company‘s Blueberry Buckle Coffee Cake. It’s so good! 🤤 Highly recommend! #baking
Thank you! 😊
Late, but did make a couple Christmas cookies for our very thoughtful neighbors. Gingerbread men, peanut butter blossoms, cornflake wreaths, and kruidnoten cookies. Hope everyone had a nice, relaxing holiday! #baking
I had never heard of kruidnoten till recently, but learned they are a type of Dutch cookie eaten during Sinterklaas! Spiced, crispy, and delicious! I made mine a little too big, but I’ll know for next time cuz I’m making these again. #baking #cookies #kruidnoten
I can safely say this is my first SpongeBob cake. A very rushed job in the midst of a baking frenzy, but it’s done! #baking #cake
Strawberry Korean cream cake for the birthday girl! Well, it’s technically not her birthday yet, but we’re catching the celebrations on the weekend! A little pressed for time and energy, but I’m happy with how it turned out! So begins the baking season! 🎂 🍰 #baking #cake
Sandwich bread: A Story. I so badly didn’t want to go to the grocery store I’d rather learn how to make it at home. 🤣 Coincidentally, happy national homemade bread day! Opted for bread flour when using this recipe because it makes the bread just a little chewier. Not bad for a first loaf! #baking
I didn’t have a 9x9 pan for this one so the layers are a little thick. 🤣 But this cinnamon coffee cake is still delicious! I added a wee bit of cardamom to the cinnamon mixtures to give it that extra deliciousness. Perfect with this mornings coffee. ☕️ Plus, the house smells amazing! #baking #cake
Last week I baked Claire Saffitz’s Halloween Pumpkin Bread. Delish! The crumble has a lovely crunch and the black cocoa isn’t overpoweringly chocolatey. A very warm and different pumpkin bread that was a hit here and with the fam! #baking #halloween #bread
Hiiii, I’m back. I’ve been wrestling with some health issues, but I’m back and I made the sweet potato soup and it was the perfect bowl of cozy deliciousness I needed. Did I forget to put the bacon crumbles on top for the picture? Yes, yes I did. Got the recipe from Natasha’s Kitchen! 10/10!
Happy #dawntrail eve! In celebration of @ffxiv Dawntrail’s official release tomorrow I made some Turali carne asada tacos with pico de gallo and the Tuliyollal Sunrise!🍍🍹 I look forward to the rest of the journey and food tours of Tural! #cooking
Dearest Gentle Reader, Today’s the dayyyyyy! Part 2 of Bridgerton! I’m so excited! I used my homemade vanilla to make these cream vanilla bean scones this morning. A bit of Devonshire cream and strawberry jam is my preference. Now to buckle in for the carriage ride. I MEAN RIDE! 🤭#baking #bridgerton
It’s the last day of #lupusawarenessmonth and #aapi month. I wanted to bring them both together in an ombré ube cake. Ube is a delicious flavor used in many Asian cultures. Lupus is 2 to 3 times more prevalent to those with Asian descent. Here’s to a cure one day! #lupus #baking #cake
Dearest Gentle Reader, this author may have gone into a baking tizzy whilst waiting for the newest Bridgerton to release and used all of the eggs in the kitchen. Fresh baked scones with clotted cream and jam, lemon madeleines, and a mini princess cake with diplomat cream. #bridgerton #baking #tea
Birthday boy wanted a yellow cake with chocolate icing so that’s what he gets! I finally outsmarted my curse and made an extra layer for this cake because of his cakes are the only ones I usually mess up! 🤣 Maybe it’s the pressure to make it perfect? #baking #cake
Bloodsport is the best! Bolo Yeung always scared me as a kid. 🤣
🌟 Princess Peach Showtime! dropped today and Im so excited! I tried to make some Princess Peach themed cookies to mark the occasion. I’m sure with her patisserie level I will be making more treats from the game! In the meantime, “let’s go!” 🌸👑 #PrincessPeachShowtime #baking
Today is the day Taylor Swift Eras Tour starts streaming! I tried out her recipe for chai cookies. I will say they are a bit greasy, but tasty! I’m a big chai fan already so they were a nice snack to have with some black tea I had around the house. Happy Eras Tour day, y’all! #taylorswift #baking
Cacio e pepe is probably the simplest pasta dish you can make. Some nice grated pecorino romano to pull the noodles together and voila! Tasty lunch! #cooking
Happy Lunar New Year! I revisited the snowskin mooncakes with custard filling but in dragon form! It is the year of the dragon this year and it’s been neat seeing everyone’s beautiful designs! I hope everyone has a happy safe new year! #mooncakes #lunarnewyear2024
