Hey there. I mentioned recently on Twitter that I’d like to start blogging casually again. Since my computer and camera were recently liberated from my ownership, I have no pressure to make things Tastespotting/Foodgawker-worthy. It’s all about the flavor anyway. I’m not into the tablescapes, carefully arranged heirloom tomatoes and blown-out whites. So, here’s a [...]

Wednesday, July 27th, 2011Spongecake Mochipants
Sunday, March 27th, 2011I love sponge cake. I didn’t know it until I went to pastry school, because I never had it growing up. I don’t know exactly why I love the airy, eggy stuff – I can’t stand eggs on their own but add sugar and I’m all over ‘em. The other day I was flipping through [...]
A Little Tropical Action
Tuesday, September 28th, 2010Hi! It’s been a while…oops. No cupcake competitions this month. Honestly I just wasn’t feeling the Mystery Box theme (I am not a sentimental person and the things I liked as a kid were pretty boring…ok at one point I had a great idea but it was on the last possible day to enter and [...]
Red Varrrrrrlvet
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010I postulated about a month or so ago that I wondered if one could make red velvet mochi cake. I have absolutely no idea why this popped into my head (I’m not even really a fan of red velvet) but I decided it would be worth a try. How hard could it be? A little [...]

Thursday, September 17th, 2009Like most people who are strangely addicted to making up recipes and experimenting in the kitchen, I occasionally get hit hard by inspiration. So hard that an idea doesn’t even make it into my notebook.
Long Time Coming
Sunday, August 30th, 2009It’s been a while since I’ve posted a certain little something…something a little tricky, a little fussy, but always worth it…when it works. I’m sure you know what I’m talking about.
Makin’ Friends… With Cake!
Wednesday, August 26th, 2009Although I moved to the Very Big City all by myself (well, I brought Bowser, but he’s the kind of company that just makes a racket until I feed him), I manage to not feel lonely most of the time. In fact, less than a week after I got here, I was lucky enough to [...]
Traveling Cakes
Thursday, July 2nd, 2009I’m back from my apartment hunt and still catching up on basically everything, so this will be short. And sweet, or so I’m told.
Foodie-Friendly
Monday, June 15th, 2009I don’t like that word – foodie – much. It’s a silly non-word. However, I can’t think of a better way to describe my take on a classic, easy bake sale item.
Friendly Cakes
Monday, June 8th, 2009Apparently, today was BFF Day. I guess it was kinda Twitter-y, but I actually coincidentally was spending the day with my BFF. So I made her cakes.
