A little over a week ago my grandmother started helping with baking from scratch. It was first to help me get a sense of what to do if I went to a baking school, but when I went to the school I realized that it was too much money. But I was still very interested in wanting to continue baking, so we did. Right now we're only baking for friends and family. But we are using their criticism to find out what to fix, or what to keep doing.
Our first batch of cupcakes weren't even good enough to consider the first. We tried to make Chocolate cupcakes with peppermint frosting. But it was WAY to chocolaty and the frosting was almost like eating toothpaste. They looked pretty, but I was able to get a picture.
This week I made Coca-Cola Cupcakes. Which was a light chocolate cupcake which had melted marshmallows and obviously Coke. The frosting was chocolate, with coke in is as well, and chopped pecans. Which everyone loved! So it was definitely a success, and helped boost our confidence in our baking. (these I was able to get a picture of)
What cupcake we are making next is unsure, But I'm starting a welcome home cake for my fiance's father. Which I can't wait to start!
