I really love creating new cakes and bringing new ideas to life. I have a few projects I am working on with new cake and filling flavors as well as experimenting with decorating techniques. Baking really allows me to show my creative side which used to come out in my writing but I have let that slide a bit; I have a childrens' book sitting in my computer waiting to be completed. I am going to make progress on some of these projects this week while I am not working at my "day job".

I have been trying to create a great PB&J cake for my daughter and have experienced a few challenges with it as far as cake texture is concerned. Most cakes I have seen using these flavors have the peanut butter in the cake but I want to incorporate the jelly in the cake instead with a nice peanut butter mousse for filling. Once I am done with it I will add the picture here for all to see; hopefully I will have a breakthrough on it this week!
