i love the hashtag #fail. not because i like to see people fail, but because on so many levels every day i fail ! i don’t think it is necessarily bad to fail at all … for me it only weeds out my strengths & weaknesses & gives me a reason to laugh at myself & remember that i am not perfect
today’s fail was no exception. i was up late last night baking for this morning’s biggest morning tea at our local church. my intention was to bake little lemon cakes and top them with cream cheese icing. yum huh !
it is time for me to face some facts: with regard to baking sweets i need to shape up or ship out ! here is some photo evidence:
ariel view is not so bad …
closer up shows that they are a little bit wonky … next time i will try to bake them in the cups rather than in a tray …
ok … #fail. what is that?! terrible …
ariel view of cream cheese icing not so bad …
but it is as hard as a rock
dear oh dear !
needless to say, I was too embarrassed to even put these on the table (thank goodness there was HEAPS of food!) & I’ll be taking these sweet babies (which probably taste delicious because they’re packed with sugar) out to dinner tonight with some friends.
#fail.
this is how the pro’s do it … thank you ! i enjoyed your cupcakes immensely
xx
