Rad Cake Links: Dispatches from the Island: Sweet 100.

By Ms. Cherryspoon | April 29, 2009

Today Lost’s 100th episode will air! It seems VERY promising, since it’s called “The Variable”, and “The Constant” was one of their best episode’s in the whole series.

What better occasion to post this great cake, that brings together two of my favorite shows! All we need now is Admiral Adama cutting the cake and we’re done! This happened way back when in February, so it had made the Internet rounds quite a bit, but good things are worth revisiting.

And Everyone!

Everyone!

PS: These images are all from Jorge Garcia’s Blog if you haven’t checked it out, you should it’s always a fun read.

PPS: A break dancing Sayid cake would be awesome! I imagine it tasting like Masala Chai and Badassery.

Sweet Melissa Patisserie: a Park Slope “Go Here”

By Ms. Cherryspoon | April 27, 2009

This pic from PJ C on Yelp.

This last Sunday after a whole day of chores, I was lucky to find myself sitting in a very nice outdoor area, sipping fresh brewed coffee and munching on some very good desserts. Yea, you read it right more than one dessert, my better half was there to help me with the daunting task of trying out baked goods.

Sweet Melissa Desserts!

The first things that caught my eye were cute little Petit Fours, called Queens Cakes, which we ordered along with Banana Bread Pudding and a Peanut Butter Chocolate cupcake.

I’ve been adopted!

By Ms. Cherryspoon | April 24, 2009

Adopted? At 29?!? Nah…

My (newbie) blog has been adopted! Thanks to Dine and Dish’s third year of the Adopt a Blogger event, by none other than Cupcake Project (eek!) and I’m pretty happy about it. One more reason for me to make these:

As if the fact that it’s a cookie dough cupcake with a cookie dough filling that looks amazing weren’t reason enough.

Hello Kitty Moffle?

Hello Kitty Moffle

I had posted a link that showed how to make Moffles a while back, and I was very tempted to try since me loves me some Mochi. So I broke out the Hello Kitty waffle maker, as soon as I found the Mochi they had used.

The Carrot Cake Fiasco

By Ms. Cherryspoon | April 22, 2009

or why you shouldn’t make up recipes when you’ve just started baking.

So, when husband and I started packing (we’re moving), I noticed my favorite cake recipe was gone. This was my perfect recipe that I had modified many times, it could be an almond cake, a spice cake or even a brown sugar spice cake (oh!) and the result was always delectable. We searched the house, even looking behind the fridge, we’re not that messy, mind you, it was a desperate attempt to find it, no dice. I’m not ashamed to say I cried a little, mostly out of frustration because I had been meaning to put it in a folder or a recipe box but never got around to it.

At this point you’re probably thinking, “I read Carrot Cake Fiasco in the title and she’s just being emo about a cake recipe”, it’s coming dear reader, pinkie promise. My better half then suggested I try to remember the recipe since it had been used a million times, which yours truly tried to do, and while doing so the thought sprung in my head that by adding carrots and apple juice to the already uncertain recipe and I could turn it into a carrot cake!

…..Ummmmm no I couldn’t.
