Felt Like Cake
October 28, 2009 at 4:46 pm | In Baking, Family, Kitchen | 2 CommentsI’ve been craving for cakes for some time, so when I expressed the desire to make one, the kids took to it like kids to candies. No occasion, just felt like cake. I had intended to decorate a layered cake myself, but after the cake was done cooling, the girls asked if they could decorate a cake too. Feeling too lazy to bake more cakes, I just told them to decorate the cakes I baked.
So there it was, two cake layers, one for each girl. A blank canvas, ready to be splotched with frosting colored as they wished.
And these were what they came up with, mashaallah!
S’s looked like a round table gently draped with a tablecloth. I love how she made her design. She claimed that she saw that kind of design in some books.

N's Thank You Cake
N, focused her decorating more on a thoughtful level. To be honest, I was pleasantly surprised when I saw her finished cake. Each of the flowers was for each of us, and she had practically dedicated the cake as a thank you to hubby and me. Mashaallah. I suppose that is her strength; thoughtfulness. Subhanallah, may I never forget that. Ameen.

Masha Allah. Lovely cakes! Maybe you can get them to make some for Eid too! I haven’t thought of what kind I will make yet.
