I’m not really sure exactly what I was thinking. I got it in my head that I wanted to make homemade birthday cakes for my family and my partner in crime. My oldest basset and partner in crime’s birthday is today, as well as my father and brother in law are celebrating birthday’s this month as well. I wanted to make each of them their own b-day cake in three different flavors. I didn’t realize just how much work one cake from scratch would be, let alone three different flavors. Plus life has a tendency to keep going even if you have four cakes to bake. I made the first two for my BFF and baby basset. They are lemon cakes with a lemon butter cream frosting. I am really hoping they taste better than they look. Just to distract from the lopsidedness, I added cute little chocolate bees I made from a mold I will be using later for soaps. Honestly… I don’t think there are enough chocolate bees in the world to make those cakes pretty. Now I am off to bake a mocha cake. oh gosh….
