I love baking for Valentine’s Day/Galentine’s Day, and since I didn’t really make any treats for Christmas, I was excited to spend some time in the kitchen, and had a super long list of things I wanted to bake. I also had two years worth of Val’s/Gal’s recipes stored up since we were in lockdown......
Long ago, in a galaxy far away (i.e. pre-COVID Fall 2019) we had an auction at work to raise money for the foundation where I work. I contributed two things: a custom 8″ celebration cake and two dozen custom cupcakes. My co-worker who had the winning bid for the cupcakes was so excited to order......
Well, it couldn’t all be smooth sailing as we made it to the end of our Baked journey. This week’s recipe for Coconut Snowball Cupcakes was kind of a bust for me. I decided to tackle the Baked boys’ notoriously fussy cooked frosting one last time, even though it hasn’t worked for me in the......
  I’m coming up on my 1 year anniversary at work and have been doing some intense research on which cake I want to bring in to celebrate (because obviously I’m making myself a cake). I was perusing a new-to-me blog, Baking with Blondie, after seeing her pop up in my Instagram explore tab for......
I’m coming up on one year at my new job, and we’ve now reached the point where my co-workers are comfortable asking me to make them birthday treats, which as you know is my joy in life. My cubicle neighbour Nat C. made sure to remind me that her birthday was on August 1st, and......
I wanted to make my new co-workers a St. Patrick’s Day treat, and I knew right away that I would make these cupcakes. There are already a couple iterations of this Guiness chocolate cake with Baileys frosting in the archives; the first was a simple one layer cake, and the second was a super-hydrated bundt......
My friend Kristine and her family are die-hard Eagles fans, so when their team made it to the Super Bowl this year, stakes were high. For me that is, because she ordered up a dozen cupcakes for their Super Bowl party, that needed to be “midnight green and say Fly Eagles Fly”. So much pressure! Not......
Yes, dear reader, it has come to this. When I texted my niece to see what kind of cake she wanted for her 10th birthday, all I got back was a line of poop emojis. I quickly did a google image search, and sure enough, they are all over the internet. I sent her back......
One of my favourite things to do with my co-workers is go to Lone Star for Fajita Fridays. It doesn’t necessarily take place on Fridays, and we don’t always eat fajitas, but there is one constant: CHEAP MARGARITAS. It’s truly the best. My friend Shane had all of us over to the patio in his......
When my nephew started telling me that he wanted Krabby Patty Cupcakes for his birthday this year, I had no idea what he was talking about. I looked to my brother for guidance and his explanation started with “Well, you know how Spongebob is a fry cook?” and the answer to that was a resounding no, as......
