Tiramisu


Happy easter everyone.

I haven't had the time to bake this week, at least not yet. But last week on my have to bake tuesday, I made some lovely tiramisu-cupcakes.

They where kinda dry, but ok. I think it was the eggwhites. And I was cheap with the coffee.
But the Marscaponecream was delicious. I make both the cupcake and the frosting non-alcohol.

I got the recipe from Cupcakes Galore. Great book btw.

But for those of you that dosn't know high hats. It's a chocolade cupcake with a meringue covered with chocolate.

Heartcupcake

A few weeks ago i got Silicone heart shaped baking cups. I love them.


This evening I made a portion lovecupcakes ( a plain vanilla, from the book 500 cupcakes ) with a satin icing. It's my first try and the icing was not fun working with. And the cupcakes cases was to big for the baking cups. But you still get a photo of my sweet little heart shadped cupcake. I bakes some without cases in the silicone, the didn't turn out well.

Tuesday is my new baking day. A day I HAVE to bake something. Might sound crazy, but the thing is I have a lot of trouble getting out of bed in the morning. So my husbond and I made a schedule for me to do my housewife things and fun stuff to keep me going.

And today was my first day of baking.

I didn't get startet ontill late afternoon. I made some delicious chocolate cupcake with a butter iceing. I toped them with some chocolate shavings.

Geek




First off all, I hope you all understand my danish-english. It might be a mix of british and american. Sorry.

But.... I found this cookie in my cookie-folder. I made it at one of our cakes for geeks meetings :)

It a chocolatecookie, with fondant.





The geek club.
We are a bunch of girls from Copenhagen. We get toghether once every two month. Or once a month if we are lucky.
we gossip and eat cake for about half an hour. When we are done eating, we get our tools and fondant on the table and start makeing some flowers, cookies or what ever you need to get done.
It's a lot of fun. normally we don't get much done because we gossip, talk and drink coffee :)

It's great to have people to share your passion with. My husbond don't alway understand cake and sugarcraft. If I get excited about a new book or some cookiecutters, it's good to have someone that knows the feeling.
