swirl

I love a good spiral, and chocolate, and peppermint. hiding the buttercream frosting on the inside of a cake is a sneaky trick that I whole-heartedly embrace. A delightful surprise!

These cookies are super adorable, it's true, but there's something about the recent trend to toss a glass of milk with a stripey straw in the background of dessert photos that I just LOVE. Why is a red and white straw so stinking cute?

One of my hometown Seattle heroes, Cake Spy has made some amaaaaaazing rainbow ice cream pops! What unicorn wouldn't love wearing one of these babies as a horn?

Dude, what was in that sandwich? The bread looks all trippy now!

Oh the simplest things can make my heart flutter and skip! I am not much of a baker, I have zero patience for making my food pretty. For me it's all about flavor. When someone cares enough to make something gorgeous and perfect, my heart goes pitter-pat.

Cranberry swirled into a lemony cheesecake of course forms hearts. This dessert is clearly made with love. So much love that I think I'm gonna have to eat a couple pieces so there isn't a love overload in here.

Traditionally in China, moon cakes are given to coworkers and families as traditional gifts and shared among several people with tea. Despite the 1200 calories per cake, I'd have a hard time sharing. Maybe it's a good thing I'm not Chinese.

I can appreciate this pattern much more in a cake than in room decor. Delish!
