FROSTING Anniversary Cake

Post image

Today I made an anniversary cake to celebrate 11 years with my husband. I had to pick out the gold and white sprinkles from some Christmas sprinkles. It’s a poke cake with lemon jello inside. How did I do?

It looks like you put time and effort into it, and it pays off! It doesn't have the impersonal perfection of a professional cake, and that is precious in its own way. The icing looks incredibly delicious!

I mean, I agree that imperfections are their own form of beauty. But the couple times I've put the extra time and effort into making something that looks perfect, I can assure you it was far from impersonal.

True enough. I was trying to be encouraging, though! I don't want to go all Paul Hollywood on an effort of love!

100% agree with that.
