Giant Donut? À la Simpsons?

And there's always room for a Giant Donut Cake, with pink icing, of course.  My friend has always wanted a giant donut (think The Simpsons), so ask and ye shall receive!  A chocolate cake with chocolate and butterscotch chips and buttercream icing...yum.  Oh but first, I know this is not a dessert, but it's just as delicious...we shared a homemade cheese fondue as well as a broth fondue (for the meat) as part of my friend's list of favourites on her birthday.  No complaints here!  Hope you had a fabulous birthday!

That's One Giant Cupcake!

Well, it had to happen one day...why make multiple little cupcakes when you can make one great big giant one?!
This giant cupcake was made from a chocolate chip pound cake recipe with vanilla creme cheese icing.
It seems my friend thoroughly enjoyed her birthday cake, and so did everyone else for that matter.  Happy birthday to you!

I Like Big Bundts!

A few co-workers and I decided it would be a good idea to partake in the (Inter)National Bundt Cake Day on November 15th....
Four of us slaved away and produced some pretty sweet treats!

This was my submission:  A chocolate chip bundt with caramelized pecans topped with a chocolate ganache.....made to look like a giant donut!!
