By cutting a 6 inch, 3 layer heart cake this way, I am able to get 12-16 well portioned sized slices.
.
Also did you know that 99% of the time, the heart cake you are seeing me decorate is my content cake? That is why I use cake drums and not boards. I will say this month only about 3 cakes I am decorating are for birthdays/special occasions, the rest are going to be the same cake decorated over and over again.

Welcome back to Formula One Outfits Around The World, where I curate a look for race Sunday Inspired by each Grand Prix Location.
.
This weeks location is round two: The Japan Grand Prix OOTD 🇯🇵🏎️🏁
.
I was really inspired by this cherry blossom and floral printed pink silk dress from petal and pup one of my favorite dress brands. Around this time of the year, the cherry blossoms bloom in Japan, so the dress is the girly center point I wish to use curate this look around. The three mains colors I wanted to work around, were the baby pink with compliments of gold and rose gold. Paired with those three tones in jewelry, a baby pink purse and watch. Finally a matching pair of ballerina heels to match the bow ring and bracelet. To tie the whole pink and gold look together, the perfect shade of light pink lipstick and a floral scented perfume. I honestly love this dress and can’t wait to wear it myself this summer.

I tried Starbucks new chocolate pistachio loaf and it was just ehh okay. I knew I could make a better version at home for the cost of the one loaf slice. That’s what I did, perfectly pistachio and moist topped with chocolate ganache icing and crushed pistachios. It definitely has a slightly artificial pistachio taste but we took the easy way out by doctoring a box cake mix and pudding mix, but there is oddly comfort in those flavors.

Sometimes you just need an over indulgent fudge brownie to satisfy your sweet tooth!
.
There is no actual recipe other than adding walnuts and chocolate chips to the batter before baking. Letting the brownies cool before topping with melted chocolate, store bought caramel sauce and more crushed walnuts. Let everything set in the fridge for 10 minutes before enjoying with a glass of milk.

Dear fellow McLaren fans, the 2025 championship shirt is available at Abercrombie Right now Abercrombie is running a 25% off the whole website, making the championship shirt only $30. On top of that, in app you can get an additional 20% off with the code AF20, which means the shirt would only come down to $24 plus tax. For something I already was going to buy, a good discount is always nice. I can also attest to how soft and comfortable these shirts are, and are great quality where the print is embedded not just ironed on.

Spring is almost here and lighter frostings on cake is the go to for the hotter months. It’s time to bring back whipped cream frostings, especially when tres leches season is right around the corner.
.
Recipe at the end for you to screenshot🤍
.
Ingredients:
* 1 quart (4 cups) of heavy cream
* 3-4 cups of powdered sugar
* 1 packet of jello/pudding mix (flavor of your choice)
* 1 tsp of vanilla extract
* 1(14oz) can of sweetned condensed milk
* 2-3 drops of food coloring (optional)
Instructions:
1. Freeze the metal mixing bowl, metal whisk attachment and heavy whipping cream in the freezer for 15-25 minutes before starting on the whipped cream
2. Pour the heavy cream into the metal bowl and beat on low-medium for 3-5 minutes until soft peaks form
3. Add the pudding/jello mix, sweetened condensed milk and vanilla extract, mix until incorporated
4. Slowly add the powdered sugar while mixing on medium speed
5. Beat the whipped cream frosting until all ingredients are well incorporated and stiff peaks have formed
6. Optional: add a few drops of food coloring to the whipped cream and beat until incorporated
Notes:
* This frosting is great for crumb coating and icing cakes however keep the icing must stay cold so do not leave it out in the a hot/humid environment
* To flavor the frosting, chose that flavor of jello/pudding mix, i.e. for strawberry whipped cream frosting use strawberry pudding mix
* Do not skip the step of freezing your bowl, whisk and heavy whipping cream, it is crucial in getting perfect stiff peaks and not accidentally creating butter and buttermilk (it has happened to me)
