Back to baking

Shhh! It’s a surprise! We are making Daddy a surprise cake for him when he comes home! It is a fancy cake...way more complicated than we have tried before. But my friend made it in CA and it was delicious! I also see why now...it’s so rich! I mostly found all the ingredients...but this will be the most expensive cake I have ever made. In fact, it was taking so long that Emma just started doing the dishes. 😂 But that needed to be done, too.  Today we made the elements: lemons curd, blueberry sauce, baked the cake and did the marscapone cheese stuff...which I may need to redo. All the stuff they do on tv is harder than it looks!  We will finish it Thursday. 😉 

Since we had so many egg whites left over, we tried a recipe we found on Facebook. They were good, too.

My little helper!
