Snow Cake

Let's welcome this winter with this snow cake..




Here's a cake made only with egg white. I got the recipe from Kayipunniam (http://kaipunyam.blogspot.com/ ). She has great collection of recipes along with wonderful photographs.

The cake recipe is snow white cake but I have changed the icing to butter icing with grated white chocolates

Black forest Cake

Chocolate "sensation" Forested 
For a change, I tried out a different design while making Black Forest Cake.

At one glance the curls of chocolate and sprinkled chocolate powder on top of the white butter cream icing can thrill almost everyone. And the taste? Simply irresistible!!!

All I have to say to you is to liven up your cake creations with chocolate curls, or with new icing skills. Don't just follow the crowd, be unique, be outstanding.

Cheers,

Marina

You too can turn a simple vanilla cupcake into delightful one by choosing colorful icing and by decorating it your own icing skills. For these cupcakes, I used chocolate mocha icing.
