Frustrating me Mum

Posted by Krysbrem 0 comments

That is what Kaleb came out with yesterday afternoon after asking me 10+ times, "Cake please Mummy", "Just a little cake please Mum".

I informed he that he had to wait until I was ready, #1 they where still too hot and #2 I still had to make the frosting for them. This was around the time he came out with "Mum you are making me frustrating". When I asked him why, his response "its frustrating not getting a cake Mum"

I had to laugh, he was ever so cute and most certainly serious in his frustration.

What he was after I hear you asking.....THESE



Strawberry Cupcakes, with Strawberry Frosting

They tasted absolutely amazing too might I add. I got the recipe from here. I did more of the pureee in both and it certainly made a difference I think.

Enjoy

Cakes

Children are just drawn to cakes, even before they know what they are they want them. Kaleb was instantly drawn to cakes, before he had even tasted them. Honestly it is like children know they are full of sugar and will give them an instant high.

Give that Kaleb just turned 3 and I made a birthday cake I figured an entry about all things cakes was on the cards. We have done lots of baking of late, not idea why because I don't *need* to eat it and it has been so hot but Kaleb likes to take Dad 'special treats' when we visit, so homemade cupcakes it has been.

So here are some of my recent creations


Vanilla Butter Cupcakes with Meringue Frosting



Chocolate Mud Cupcakes with Chocolate Frosting
(both the Cupcake & the Frosting have chocolate fudge in them)

Neapolitan Cupcakes with matching Frosting


Vanilla Buttercakes with Vanilla Frosting & candy flowers


And of course the most important one for the last month, Kaleb's Third Birthday Cake. It is made from Banana Cake with a Cream Cheese Frosting.

Hoping to get some more made today to take up to a friends place tomorrow, but this will (a) depend on children (b) depend on motivation and (c) if I have everything in the house.

Happy Drooling
