Bake Lust: July 4th

So here it is July 4th blogging from Jon's computer and I've baked nothing patriotic. I actually made a cake the other day but chose to go swimming instead of decorating it and I'm totally okay with that decision! But hopefully after traveling to Greenville today, fireworks tonight and probably being lazy tomorrow...I'll be back to bake something good up next week.

So here is my favorite America inspired baked good complete with recipe and instructions:

And for those of us that are more ambitious:

Bake Lust: Mother's Day

How perfectly adorable are these? I'm really in a cupcake making mood after seeing this site. Maybe this weekend...?

Bake Lust Saturday (Sunday...)

How bad is it that all of my latest posts are of things that other people made. And I've actually baked but have been too busy/lazy to get my photos uploaded. Sad.

I can't wait til this school year is over so I can devote more time to baking. I'm so slack when school is in session. I've been asked to make something for a baby shower at work (can't believe I agreed after the first baby shower fiasco this year) and originally I suggested petit fours. Yeah...but then I get an email tonight that it is going to be this Wednesday so I may switch that over to cupcakes. Petit fours take a lot of prep work. At least I know the gender of this baby (baby girl!) so it won't be as hard to think of ideas.

Anyhow, here are a few things I saved for this week:

homemade pop tarts (with nutella!) from smitten kitchen
edible butterflies from the kitchn
pretty and classic French charlottes from the kitchn


Also:
Stephanie makes getting up to make weekend pancakes so much easier.

It is strawberry season.

Bake Lust Saturday

I've not seen so many lust-worthy cakes this week. Until last night...

I'm not sure if I've ever seen a prettier pink and girly cake. First spotted on Style me Pretty but I was excited to find out that it's baker is in Charlotte no less! It's WOW Factor Cakes and there are many pretty ones on their site.

A much simpler but nonetheless delicious looking chocolate cake. I'm going to have to ice my next chocolate cake like this. And I love the rustic cake stand. This is from Seven Spoons, a new blog discovery. Also, glad to find out I'm not the only one in love with Beatty's Chocolate Cake.
Today I saw the produce stand down the street selling fresh strawberries. That only means that it's almost time to make some homemade strawberry jam. And when that happens I'm going to use these adorable labels from eatdrinkchic.
And, how perfect is this?!?

Bake Lust


I've been woken up way too early this morning by my neighbor's grandson throwing his baseball up against the bottom of my bedroom wall. The chances of you making it pro, very slim. The chances of me turning into a third grade teacher on a Saturday morning, almost guaranteed.

But because I was forced to get up early I was organizing photos in iPhoto and looking at blogs and dragging more photos to iPhoto and it was at that moment I came to the realization that I have baking lust. Really bad. I see cute cakes, cupcakes, cookies, tarts, etc. and save the photos for future reference.

Why not save them on here for future reference and share their greatness?

So maybe this will be a new Saturday morning tradition. Not that I hope to be woken up by third graders ever again.

Love this simple bannered wedding cake. No clue where I found it...
