So, are you curious to see the result of my baking experiment yesterday? Take a look…

The “no name cake” resting on my cake keeper
I consider each baking day an experiment. Because I search for my recipes and pick them out based on what sounds good while reading the ingredients, I always look forward to the result. Note that for now, I’m really concentrated on perfecting the cake itself as I always want to have that moist and “just right sweetness” on my cakes. I confess that I have a sweet tooth, but that does not mean that I love overwhelmingly sweet treats. They have to taste just right. Ever since I started baking cakes, all of the recipes I made so far are culled from different sources, so much so, that the cake is from one recipe and the icing and filling are taken from two different sources. Am I that weird? Just like the above, the cake is Vanilla and the icing and filling recipe is from Ina Garten’s version of Beatty’s Chocolate cake, which means – I still have yet to name this cake. Any suggestions?




If it’s rich and moist, I’ll call it Decadence.

What’s in a name anyway? hehehe….as long as it tastes good no name is needed…just call it….nameless#1….hahaha…
Seriously Tuks….baka before you know it eh may sariling bakery ka na….
Naku ang man of the house dito eh may konting sakit. His ‘frail’ body [all 200 lbs of it....LOL] gave in to the long hours at work. Sabi nya he lost a few pounds so he’s no longer ‘obese’….super overweight na lang….
Enjoy the rest of the weekend.

@ Joel
since you’re the first one to came up with a name, so let this cake be baptized as Decadence. It sounds so good!
thank you so much!
@ Juliana
hey, may name na siya, c/o Joel.
seriously as you wrote, owning a “petite” bakeshop has been one of my dreams for a while. for years, I have been talking with F about one day buying that neighborhood Italian bakeshop that I loved: Angelo’s. naunahan nga lang magsara. it would have been awesome taking over that place with established clientele already and buying the business lock, stock and barrel.ambisyosa ‘noh? actually, right now, we are being offered a bakery, as the owner is selling it, but it’s an El Salvadorian bakeshop and I don’t have a good idea about any of their goodies, unlike Italian treats. pinag-iisipan pa namin, so much so that the location is a good 45 minutes drive away from home.
Why not Juliana’s Sweetness:-)
How are you?
Cheers to all the sweetness your concocting. Sana matikman namin yan:-)

@ lunarhemizphere
It can be done, if you are interested to learn how to bake. Just like me, I didn’t have to go to a baking school.You can certainly do it too.
