cakes

Cakes don’t you get joy from making cakes? I certainly do especially when it comes to eating it.
I wouldn’t say that I am a professional but I can say, when ever I decide to make one I always fell good. I then thought to my self why don’t I start taking picture of cakes that I’ve made and now I have a few pictures in my collection.

It was a surprise party and I ran out of time so I didn’t get to put the name on the cake, but they loved the cake and the food. We cooked over favourite food from Jamaica (curry goat, jerk chicken steam fish) and a whole lot of Rum punch, hmm…. If you have never tasted run punch before you got to try it. I will post a recipe on how to make jamaican rum punch so you can try.

It was my son first birthday and I made a cake for him. It was Jamaican fruit cake but I could not wait for the party so I ate a big chunk of the cake and thought I could patch the cake with icing so it look as if that’s how I wanted it.

A few cake recipes for you to try.
