I’ve been wanting one of these baby’s for quite a while.  My daughter picked up my ‘subtle’ hints and gave me one for Christmas.  I’ve been busy pie making since. This little fella can get you out of a jam pretty darn quick.  I’ve been invited to a few impromptu gatherings and the same question pops into my head about 5.5 seconds after accepting such and invitation… “What am I gonna make??”

This Thanksgiving I made an Autumn Pumpkin Pie.  The pumpkin pie was made from canned pumpkin mixed with cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cream.   E.D. Smith Pumpkin is my pumpkin of choice.   Pastry is homemade using Tenderflake and following the recipe on their box.  I’ve tried other pastry recipes but I like Tenderflake. The real reason I wanted to post this is just to show you how to dress up

I’m a HUUUGE fan of Fall and  I especially like to bake at this time of year.  What else says FALL more than beautiful leaves and apple pie? Leafy Apple Pie ? I made my own pastry the night before.  Bring your pastry to room temperature and set aside a small piece to color later on.  Size up your bottom shell and trim off excess.  Flute or crimp your pie crust with your fingers.

So, my last cake for a while is for my daughters boyfriend Lucas. Luca trains in M1 Thai Boxing and Nadia thought this would be a great cake for his birthday. As I know NOTHING about sports, let alone boxing gloves, I looked around for the proper Thai Boxing gloves. We noticed that these gloves were flatter and more squared off at the top.  In any case, I started off with a couple of

I’ve been looking for a good banana cupcake recipe for a while. I have a wonderful banana cake, banana bread recipe, but I wanted a cupcake with bananas. This is a great recipe.  It’s more cakey… or cupcakey (?)

This one is for Sara. For Sara’s birthday she requested a pig cake.  Seems she has something in common with my daughter… the love of pigs! After all who couldn’t love a face like this? Thankfully Sara had something a little different in mind. She gave me pictures of the pigs she wanted on her cake. It was… a piece of cake! Here was my main model. Top Pig, as it were.   I started out

My nephew is an amazing musician and self taught guitarist. So for his birthday I wanted to make his cake musical. I baked two rectangle cakes and carved them up something like this. The pick guard and the sides of the body were painted with a brown mixture of gel food colors.  To make the colors mix better and to keep them liquid add a few drops of vodka.  Alcohol will evaporate whereas

Cinnamon buns go over really big in my house.  Unfortunately I don’t get to make them as often as they’d like. But with a recipe like this.. you could make them every week!   Without yeast and no waiting for dough to rise, these buns take just 30 minutes.

I made 96 cupcakes for a Bridal Shower and each one was different. They are plain chocolate/vanilla cake, iced with a 1M tip with half & half buttercream icing.  Because these cupcakes will more than likely end up outside for a garden party, I opted to use the half butter/half shortening buttercream, specifically for the melt factor, (you can get that recipe here.) The flowers were made from

There are a lot of buttercream recipes, some call for just shortening, some are all butter, some are a mixture of butter and shortening.  I prefer the all butter version, but there are times when butter buttercream can fail you.If you are icing your cake in humid, warm or hot temperatures, pure butter buttercream can definitely give you problems.  Even if you manage to get your cake decorated in

This past weekend was extremely busy in my kitchen. We celebrate THREE birthdays at once, my eldest daughter, her boyfriend and my nephew. I thought about making one cake with something to represent all three, but my daughter had her heart set on her own cake.. and it had to be pink~! So that left me in the kitchen baking cakes the days before, and two straight days of cake decorating. This

I’ve seen a few recipes for Hermit Cookies, but I liked this one best.  Most seem to call for shortening, but this recipe contains butter. They are soft and chewy and can be made with the sugar glaze or eaten without..(I prefer WITH).

A very special little girl (she’s really like a niece to me) asked if I would help her make something to take to school for Valentine’s Day.  After some emails back and forth, pictures, ideas and careful planning, she decided she would go with Cake Pops.  We actually made over 40 Cake Pops and most of them round and decorated with sprinkles, but don’t ask my WHY I don’t have any pictures of them!

There are many talented bakers out there, but I have to say I AM BAKER is one of my favorites. Amanda is sheer genius when it comes to putting cakes together.  When I saw her roses cake, I knew I just HAD to give it a try. Three fabulous reasons to make this cake ~1. Its incredibly beautiful on the outside2. Its very different on the inside3.  It makes two beautiful cakes The vertical layers

Ok, so here it is… this was my backup cake in case my Rudolph Christmas Cake didn’t turn out. I served this cake at a different Christmas occasion and it was LOVELY! From the outside you’d never know what magic is on the inside. The icing on this cake sets it apart from your normal basic butter cream or sugar icing.  The recipe for that is below. The snowflakes were made from either white

I’ve spent some time lately making these fondant figurines for this Christmas cake that I have planned (in my head).  Whether or not this cake actually turns out anything like I planned will be another story. Here is a sneak peek of the Rudolph Characters that will be a part of the cake. First we start with Hermie the Elf.  I made Hermie as if he was popping out of the snow bank when he first

I’ve been looking a long time to find a recipe that is flavourful yet dense enough to handle layers and the heaviness of fondant. It will also work well when sculpting cakes. I found this recipe at Wilton.  It is very basic and I’m sure with some amazing fillings and maybe some colour you can make this cake any way you like to suit any taste. I also needed a recipe that would fill a 12” x 2”

I love quiche.  For some reason I forgot that.  I should really make it more often.  Quiche recipes are endless. After all, what CAN’T you mix with eggs?    This recipe is fast and easy.  It’s so easy in fact, that I’ll even tell you to go out and buy a ready made pie crust!   So let’s move on… Ingredients 1 cup sliced mushrooms 1 cup  chopped onions 1 cup chopped broccoli 5 eggs 1/3

It’s probably been 20 years since I made jam.  I’ve been wanting to make it again for quite some time.  This week I was presented with the opportunity to make strawberry jam since I found a terrific recipe from Yvonne over at Stone Gable.  Also by chance, a visit from my out of town cousins landed me a flat of freshly picked strawberries yesterday!  So thank you Yvonne for a great recipe and

Brace yourself, you’re going to see a lot of banana recipes on here. For some reason I can’t seem to regulate my banana buying. I love them but I can’t seem to out-eat my buying trips.  Ultimately I’m left with a few brown strays by the end of every week.  But that’s ok…banana’s are so versatile, I’ll just keep trying new and different things. This one is fairly different.  The coconut/banana

I don’t know where I got this recipe to give credit, but I did tweak it to make it slightly my own.  I have a few different Banana Bread recipes, but this mixture with blueberries is heaven.  I can’t even describe how moist this bread is.  “Bread” seems too dry a word for it.   I actually cut this about 5 minutes out of the oven and it was this delicate blueberry banana pudding … haha..  (so

These cookies are maaaahvelous!  But then I just love anything with lemon and poppy seeds!  I used real lemons for the juice.  I don’t know how they would be with lemon juice from a bottle, but these cookies are worth using the real thing!   Ingredients Makes about 30 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice, plus 3 1/2 teaspoons freshly grated lemon zest (2 to 3 lemons) 8 ounces (2 sticks) unsalted

Rice balls are fabulous as a side dish or as an entree.  They certainly go over big in my household!  For this recipe I use sticky rice.  Not minute rice, arborio rice, or sushi rice… sticky rice.  You shouldn’t have a problem finding it.  You’ll prepare it the way the package indicates.  Make sure you rinse the rice before cooking it.  I’m going to give you a basic recipe here.  Keep in mind you

There are a multitude of recipes out there for Pulled Pork.  I wanted something simple and done in the oven, (no firing up the BBQ for 10 hours for me.)  Simple, easy and shovin’ in the oven'.This recipe turns out unbelievably moist and tender.
