Hello friends!
Happy Labor Day Weekend! We love extra long weekends, they make everything seem sooo much more relaxing. Instead of 48 hours to squeeze in all the fun you want in your life, you can stretch it out for 72. That sounds much better!
So we've been a little busy these past few weeks, and our blog posts have been limited. Sorry about that. Sometimes the world just kind of gets ahead of you. Since we have 72 hours to enjoy our weekend, though, we thought we'd update.
We told you in our last post that people have really been loving cookie cakes this summer, and last week was no different. We made a fun cookie cake for a co-worker's dad's birthday as a surprise.
Apparently he loves cookie cake but didn't ask for one for his party, so his daughter decided to make sure he had a fun surprise waiting for him. He thought he was getting just a regular old birthday cake, but instead had a PSR original cookie cake. Yum!!
Cookie cakes are a ton of fun to make, because the time we have to devote to real cakes isn't involved. Bake the cake, let it cook, decorate it with some icing, it's very, very minimal. Not that we don't love decorating, but if we only spend 2 hours in the kitchen instead of 8, well...that's a win in our books.
In addition to updating our blog this weekend, we're also going to try our hand at an old standard, the cream puff.
We've made cream puffs before, but it was eons ago, before we learned all of our important baking knowledge we now possess. They're fairly simple if you pay attention to them (think of them as an adorably cute puppy that will pee in your house if you're not careful) but our biggest challenge will be trying to find a good pudding/icing combination to stuff them with. Any suggestions? Hit us up in the comments.
It's September, folks. Where did this summer go?? Have a fantastic extended weekend with friends and family. We'll be updating the blog a few times in the coming week as we have two big projects coming up. Chocolate lovers...you're gonna wanna buckle up for the one order we have!
Cheers everyone!
