Aren’t these pretty? What is it about frosting things in sugar that just give them that deliciously ethereal look? As much as I hate winter, visually it can be pretty stunning. If only real snow were like this though. You know, not actually cold and deliciously sweet? The cupcake version of these really only exist […]

The Unsinkable Molly Brown(ie)
May 06 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Bars, Brownies, Cake, Candy, Cookies, Cupcakes, Other Desserts
…No, not that kind of Molly, sorry folks (although come July, who knows? đ ) . Alright, I know I’ve been absent for a while, and trust me when I say that it tore me up inside to take an entire month off from blogging, but life circumstances beyond my control made it impossible for […]

The Puns Are Condiment(ary): Get (Sauer)kraut-a Here!
February 18 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Brownies, Cake, Candy, Icing, Other Desserts
I am super in love with these. I know you probably have just stopped believing me on that front by now because I say it so often it’s lost all meaning. However, I don’t understand what’s not to like here. This week I’m actually incorporating two different condiments. Double the chance for disaster? Of course. But, despite […]

The Puns Are Condiment(ary): I Relish That I’m Kind Of A Big Dill
February 11 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cupcakes, Icing
So the secret’s obviously out on which “mystery” condiment we’ll be embracing today. I rub my hands together with relish and glee (after which I had to give them a right scrubbing because my hands were coated in green goo and whatever it is that “glee” is made of? It’s invisible, but surprisingly difficult to […]

The Puns Are Condiment(ary): Catch-Up Me If You Can
February 04 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Bars, Cake, Other Desserts, Pie
THEMED MONTH!!!! I’m super excited about it because there is just so so much potential for disaster here. What can I say? I just love livin’ on the edge like that (which then reminded of that Aerosmith song. I â€Â the teenage nostalgia of that tune). To get you in the mood for this month, I […]

Deep Space Wine
December 03 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Brownies, Cake, Cupcakes, Icing
Let’s pretend we’re classy here for a week OK? OK. How do we do that you ask? I think if you douse anything in enough wine (provided you don’t tell anyone it came from a box), only a fool would think it hadn’t become a little more artsy and high brow. Now I know I’ve […]

All The Single(Serve) Ladies: I Cake It You Heard About The Recent “Mug”gings?
November 26 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cupcakes, Icing
The final week of single serve! I don’t know what it is about the final week of one of my nonsensical themed months, but they always make me a bit sad đ . It’s amazing how attached one can get to a ridiculous gimmick in such a short span of time. There is no time […]

Who’s The Boss(Ton)?
September 24 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Icing, Other Desserts, Pudding/ Mousse
More cake! I know, I should’ve made this a layer cake themed month, I just didn’t realize I’d have so many opportunities to make full on cakes and take them places! September for the win! (too many exclamation marks in a row? Yes. Since you’re already judging me – !!!!!!!!!!!! – just had to get […]

Life Is Like A Box Of (Triple) Chocolate…Cake
September 17 , 2017 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cupcakes, Icing
Death by chocolate, is there really any way to go that sounds sweeter? Maybe drowning in boiling melted chocolate would not be so great due to the whole burning your flesh thing (and also, you’d likely get chocolate up your nose and that just sounds both unpleasant and incredibly wasteful đ ). So my book […]
