Ice Cream Flavors
Two posts about ice cream! This time is not the shape of the cake, but the flavor... mmm delicious. I made it for my mom's bday (I feel like lately I only work for my family - not complaining though).
This cake is a yellow cake with orange flavor, filled with pineapple and apricot jam, which I did, and I was proud of :) The buttercream used to frost the cake had pineapple flavor and the fondant... pineapple with orange... as I said, just like an ice cream.
My family was in love with my cake, and so was I, because I feel that with each new cake I've been improving in so many levels, and that makes me happy and proud of myself. And believe me, I'm quite a perfectionist but I see progress, so I'm happy and that won't mean I will stop trying to be better each day.
And now the reason why you visit my blog:
Thanks pretty people for reading my posts, hope to come back soon with a new project.
XOXO

A bowl of ice cream or a cupcake?
This time I'll let you decide, is my cake an ice cream bowl or a cupcake?
Let me tell you, I was aiming for a cupcake, but I feel like the bottom of my cake is too rounded and looks more like a bowl... but still I like my cake and the colors are pretty sweet!
On the base of the cake I put some cookies and wrote "melly" on them, because the name of the girl is Starmelly... how clever? hehehe.
The cake is a yellow cake with almond extract, the buttercream has coconut and lemon flavor, delicious!
So, what do you think?
Thanks for reading! XOXO
