Pumpkin Cake

It is another pumpkin dessert, a pumpkin cake. If I had time to do some decoration on the cake, I will put some scary face to celebrate Halloween. Halloween should be something scary, right?!

But, it is too sad not to have time to do those decorations. I’ll remember to save time next year. So, I just did some cream cheese icing.

Mini Bunny Carrot Cake

Yes… Baked a carrot cake again. But, a little difference. I got a set of baking modes as my birthday gift this year. I just used them once. I like them a lot, but the only thing is not every has this set. And it is difficult to be reference. There was a small group hold last night. Instead of cutting and serving to people, bake a small cake will be perfect to serve. And one of my baking modes is mini bunny. Bunny and Carrot… Perfect.

Last time, I found out it is really hard to mix everything in after adding flour. I tried a new sequence that it is easier. And, I has tried lots of cream cheese icing recently. But, I got my best one yesterday. I think I will use this for my future baking. Enjoy my mini bunny carrot cake.
