Wedding Cake

2009-02-14T10:08:00.000-08:00

This is what I have been up to this week. I made a wedding cake for the son of a lady I work with. They had some fun ideas for the food at this wedding. They had things like hot cocoa with spoons dipped in chocolate, and breads and spreads. They also did a candy table like what Rosie had for her wedding. I liked the way they had only candy that matched the colors of the wedding. Here are some pictures of it all.

They had the reception at the Sun River Gardens in Orem. I asked one of the ladies in charge of setting up what the charge is to use the gradens. She said Monday, Thursady is $1600.00 and Friday, Saturday $1800.00 It is really beautiful inside. They bring in flowers that match the wedding colors and all kinds of green plants.

Rosie and I thought we liked the cake with the pink ribbon to break up the purple.

Last weekend I made this cake and it was really good and very rich! It was white chocolate cake and chocolate frosting. It had raspberry filling and fresh raspberries in and on top, with chocolate shavings.

I wished this was the Price of Gas

2009-02-14T09:49:00.000-08:00

I was delivering a wedding cake Friday night and Rosie said "WOW !!!! I wish that was really the price of gas!" We laughed and took this picture to share. Funny thing is, Mark and I remember when it was even lower than that, more like .22 cents per gallon.
That tells you how old we are!

Wedding Cake

2009-01-17T21:43:00.000-08:00

I have been making a wedding cake these past few days for a couple that I worked with this summer at the call center. Dan & Kelsey Itri. Kelsey brought a picture of a really cute cake that she wanted me to make.

Then I got a phone call from the bride on Monday wondering if she could bring her Mom and Grandma over to talk about the cake. Her Mom and Grandma were not happy with the cake that she had chosen. They thought it was to hip for the dress she was going to be wearing and where the recption was going to be at. They said they didn't want the cake to draw away from the bride. So I got out a pencil and paper and started drawing a cake that looked like her wedding dress, and this is what we came up with....

I hand-painted silver, pearl & sparkle

I sculped the bottom layer to look like the bottom of the bride's dress with a little silver design.

The top and the bottom layers of cake were filled with raspberry filling the other two layers has strawberry filling. It had homemade marshmallow fondant which tastes better than that nasty-tasting regular fondant.

This was a really fun cake to make. It took me about 26 or more hours from start to finish. I have found that I really enjoy making them. I may be making one for a lady I work with at the school. If I do, I will post some pictures of it. If you know of anyone getting married and needs a cake, tell them to give me a call.

It has a lot of my Dad's side of the family like grandma Warenski, his sisters, sister in law's, my Mom & a lot of great ward family members. My Grandma Warenski was a Great cook I remember going to her house and she always had something in the kitchen, that she had made the you could eat or she was in there cooking up something great.

GRANDMOTHER'S CAKE

Some people remind me of flowers

and things,

Of stories, and verses and fairies,

and kings,

But, somehow when watching my

grandmother bake

My Grandmother always reminds

me of cake

Her temper all sunshine, with just

enough spice,

Her face like a muffin all dimpled

and nice;

Her form is imperial, though short

and quite old,

Her hair is like silver, her

heart is pure gold;

Her fingers are brown and as

wrinkled as scones,

and the vevet is gone from

the song she intones.

But she knows how to cook for

the hungry and sick,

And her dear lady fingers are

nimble and quick,

As she rolls out the sponge

into crullers and buns,

And nut loaf and pound loaf

and fat polly lunns;

With chocolate and coconut

heaped in a cup,

She sprinkles and ices and

fusses things up,

Till you'd think if you drop in

the day grandma bakes;

It was somebody's Birthday to

look at the cake.

She once was a bride, like

a filly so fair,

Her eyes blue as gems, and with

ribbon decked hair;

She married a poor man and

Jonnie's his name.

And who cares a fig that their

ways have been plain?

No mansion of marble, no

palace serene,

But a house full of Brownies with

Grandma their queen.

Her current of life has been

happy and sad,

And the fruit of her days is

to make others glad;

So I think of my Grandma

an angle to be,

And I know over ther she'll make

cookies for me!

Applebee's Quesadillas

Ingredients

2 Slices of Lean Bacon (sliced into 1/2" pieces)

Softened Butter (softened for lightly spreading on tortilla shells)

1 Tbsp. Pico de Gallo

1/4 C. Shredded Colby/Monterey Jack Cheese

Sour Cream

Guacamole

Picante Sauce

Slice bacon and fry until bacon starts to turn crisp but not hard and brittle. Remove from pan, drain bacon and set aside. Spread butter lightly on one side of the flour tortilla shell. Place buttered side of shell down, into a non-stick fry pan that has been preheated on medium heat. Sprinkle 2 tablespoons of bacon over entire shell, then add 1 Tbs. Pico de Gallo, and 1/4 cup shredded Colby/Monterey Jack cheese over the bacon. Place the second flour shell on top of fixings, buttered side up. Cook for about one - two minutes just long enough to heat the inside ingredients and then carefully flip the quesadilla on the other side and finish cooking. The quesadilla should be heated through but not browned. Remove quesadilla and place on a serving dish and cut into individual triangle serving pieces. Serve quesadillas with your favorite guacamole sour cream, and Picante sauce.

Chocolate-Dippy Doughnuts

2008-04-10T16:40:00.000-07:00

By: Susan Proctor

Peanut oil

1 can store-bought biscuits

1 (4-ounce) bar sweet chocolate (recommended: Baker's German's)

1/2-ounce (1/2 square) unsweetened chocolate

1 stick unsalted butter

3 cups confectioners' sugar

1 1/2 cups evaporated milk

1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Preheat fryer with peanut oil to 350 degrees F.

Separate pre-cut biscuits.

Make a hole in the middle with your hand and sculpt dough into a doughnut shape.

Place doughnuts into fryer and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, flipping to fry both sides.

Place doughnuts aside onto a paper towel lined plate to remove excess oil.

Melt the chocolate and butter in a saucepan over very low heat. Stir in the sugar, alternating with the evaporated milk, blending well. Raise the heat to medium and bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Lower the heat and cook, stirring, until the mixture becomes thick and creamy, about 8 minutes. Stir in the vanilla then remove the pan from the heat.

Stick a fork through the doughnut holes and dip the doughnuts immediately into the chocolate mixture before the chocolate starts to cool. Place the doughnuts on a plate and serve when the chocolate on the doughnuts sets, about 5 minutes.

Cook Time: 10 minutes

Yield: 10 to 12 servings
