Well, yesterday was my birthday. My mom and I went out to lunch and to the movies and we had Coldstone for my birthday cake. I don't want or need a birthday cake. I made one just to test out a new frosting recipe from a banana cake I had in the freezer. I gave it to my gym instructor. Lol. His eyes got so big and he had a big smile on his face. I know I will always have a taste tester in him. Lol. I made ganache with tollhouse chips and it came out SO much better than previously when I used generic chips. So Friday evening I went to Costco (with my mom's card, thank you self checkout!, they never knew it wasn't her) and bought a 50 lb bag of powdered sugar and a huge bag of tollhouse chips. I hate buying in bulk but I will go through that in no time. Lol. It's hard to believe that my brother is getting married in 2 weeks. It will be nice when it's all over with! I am stressed about making the cake. I just want it to be perfect. I am thinking about making a bunch of modeling chocolate and coloring it grey and crimson and rolling little balls to use at the bottom border insead of shells or something like that. I think it will be more fun. Ok, I really gotta go to bed now!
Love to you all!
I'm glad you had a nice birthday!! Mmmmmmm Coldstone sounds delicious! Best of luck to you on the wedding cake. How fun to be able to make it for your brother!♥
