Mug Cakes!

Some people think that microwaving cakes in a mug is some sort of baking sin, but I find it kind of neat! I came across a list of various Mug Cake recipes while browsing on Tumblr today and decided to give one a try.

The one I made in the picture above is the Peanut Butter recipe. It wasn't as good as a cake baked in the oven, but definitely tasted better then I expected it to be! I ended up microwaving it for about 1 minute and 50 seconds even though the recipe said only 1 minute. It may be because my mug is larger and thicker than most mugs. I think these recipes would be something fun to do with kids. Give it a try! ;)

Happy Birthday Evan!

2 tier cake: chocolate cake on bottom, yellow cake on top. 6 inch 3 layer: yellow cake. Both cakes frosted with vanilla buttercream and details made with marshmallow fondant. Cake pops: half chocolate, half yellow cake, dipped in candy melts!

Congrats Farrah!

I made this Lemon cake for the winner of the contest I did a couple weeks ago to see who could refer the most people to "like" my Caitie Cakes facebook page and Farrah Rummell won with a total of 63 people!

Congrats Farrah and hope you enjoy the cake!

Happy Birthday Madison!
