Blog readers, please excuze the background of the below image....

This was a cake for my mum's birthday. I tried fondant for the very first time for the corners and handles and unfortunately with the heat we have in Goa, by the time we reached mum's home it melted...boohooo...

It was a layered cake and I used 3 different creams. It was tasty.

For my neighbour's 9th Birthday I came up with a different idea.

I made a Chocolate Chiffon Cake. I used chocolate and fresh cream to make the glaze. I am yet to perfect the art of Immaculate icing.

Here in Goa, it is difficult to find piping tips of your choice and you have to make do with whatever is available unless someone gets it for you from abroad.
This was made for a 7 year old who's Spiderman crazy....He loves mangoes too. So I made him a Mango Chiffon Cake.

I wanted to surprise a young relative with a cricket set cake. So I made him a cricket bat, ball, leg pads, hat, jersey and the works. Since he likes Sachin, I used a picture as a score board. The result..see.... I used a moist vanilla cake recipe which I found online. After reading the reviews, I decided that it was the right cake to prepare. But I was disappointed when I tasted the final result. The cake was tasty but not at all moist. Will never try that recipe again.
