Peanut butter and banana. I know it’s only been 5 seconds since I did a post about that particular flavour combination, but I liked it so much, I felt it needed to be incorporated into something else. Also, Kevin really liked the banana filling from my knock-off nutter butters from the other week and told […]

A Nutter(Butter) Peanut Butter Post? That’s Bananas!!
June 17 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Bars, Cookies, Icing
Clearly I’ve just given up with trying to come up with puns for anything peanut butter related. That title is just sad. Sad like a little kid who just dropped their entire ice cream cone before they even got to take one bite. Or sad like the fact that I don’t have a Goldendoodle as […]

Sundaes For Sundays? How Berry Fitting
June 10 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Candy, Cupcakes, Icing, Pudding/ Mousse
Summer!!!!!!!!!!! That is possibly my favourite word. Conjuring up images of warmth and holidays…and ice cream! You know the big problem with ice cream though? It just gets a little too melty a little too fast. Gives a whole new meaning to the phrase “sticky fingers” (although now maybe you could “legitimately” “accidentally” rob people […]

Here’s A Sneak Peek(an) Through Rose(mary) Coloured Glasses
June 03 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cupcakes, Icing
Personally, I’m a big fan of incorporating savoury herbs into dessert (strawberry-basil, lemon-thyme, apple and sage, so many possibilities! I even had a whole themed month about it, so if you’re interested, check out one (or all!) of these posts – rosemary, basil, dill (surprisingly my favourite tasting of the 4) or oregano). In trying […]

When (Cran)Berry Met Sally
May 13 , 2018 by Amber Trudeau - in Cake, Cupcakes, Icing, Other Desserts, Pudding/ Mousse
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 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 […]

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 🙁 . It’s amazing how attached one can get to a ridiculous gimmick in such a short span of time. There is no time […]
