Baking isn’t my strong point. I can manage bread and crackers. Although the bread is a bit hit and miss.
So it was a small lockdown triumph to actually bake a cake today. It used blended pineapple instead of fat. This made mixing much easier.
Also pineapple cakes have a much less formal vibe, right? So the rich brown colour of the cake and super moist texture was all part of that.
Then I got to cover the actually rather tasty caramelised cake in white chocolate spread and sprinkles.
It felt like a tiny victory.
It’s a dear friend’s birthday today so I shared photos with her rather than a slice.
