Never leave me alone with a cake.

On Monday, we went to our neighbors’ house for dinner and I thought I’d bring a cake. Now – I’ve made cakes before, but I definitely don’t have it down to a science. I’ve had my share of disasters.

But this was quite possibly my WORST one. It literally split down the middle as I was frosting it. It started with a peace sign of a crack creating three distinct wedges. My first thought was so fill the fissures with chocolate chips…really embrace peace…and chocolate.

But there was no saving that poor cake. And there was no serving it either. It was just a complete FAIL.

But on the upside – I got to enjoy it at home for three days. Yes – you read that correctly. Monday afternoon through Wednesday afternoon, I ate A LOT of cake.

I love cake – and I can probably eat anyone under the table. Picture Karen Allen drinking shots in Raiders of the Lost Ark. That’s me. With cake.

So of course I love these.


Aren’t they darling? Sugarbloom bakery sells these tall cupcakes that can be sliced. A much neater method of sharing, but you’ll have to duke it out with me for the top piece.

I found them on GreatFull Day recently and have been saving the image for a day that I was feeling cake. Or feeling full of cake I guess. And I really am. Full of it. Meaning cake of course.
