She wants vanilla, he wants chocolate. She wants vanilla, he wants chocolate! In the end, I baked 2 sponge cakes - Vanilla & Chocolate! I'm referring to my twins' request for their birthday cake. I don't want to bake two separate cakes for them, I'd rather prefer them to have the same cake. So in the end, I combine the vanilla and the chocolate sponge cakes to have a
"Black & White Birthday Cake"! With
Hello Kitty design for her, and a
Ben 10 design for him. I also alternate the sponge cakes and halved the cake for each of them! Heehee...;)
In the end, they're satisfied and I'm happy with what I have created specially for them! The twins will be five years old this coming Tuesday! Happy birthday to my wonderful twins-
Allyson & Anders!
With some time on my hand, I baked two loaves of Cheese Bread from
Alex Goh's "The World of Breads". These cheese loaves included some almond nibs. They looked real nice though!
Just for fun, I drew on the breads! ;) Enjoy!

That is such a cute idea! And a really smart one to keep both your kids happy at the same time.

ReplyDeleteHi Fiona,
ReplyDeleteThanks! The kids are just enjoying their "special" day & holiday these two days!
YES! I understand your problem. That was why I only bake small cakes for them. Otherwise, how to finish so much cakes, and so many times of celebrations?!?! :p
