LOL – I LOVE your story because that was me (and still is most of the time) when I make cakes. Just today I was wondering if I’ll ever be like those TV cake chefs who always look so “put together” when creating those wonderful cakes that always rise so beautifully and never look dry or overdone. Where do they hide the confectioner sugar that LOVES to land on my counter and floor? Where are the blobs of buttercream that suddenly drop from the palette knife at the worst possible moment? How come their decorating tools are always accessible – I swear there’s a tools fairy in my home (not to be confused with a tooth fairy) who loves to play tricks on me – I suppose such perfection is the magic of Television… us, mere mortals, just have to keep on trying!
Happy Baking, everyone!
