Earlier this month, we celebrated Mummy Yam's birthday. I was travelling the next day so it was a busy day for me, making bread for my "kid" (aka nephew #1), baking and icing a cake...and cooking lunch and dinner...you know the usual stuff. *winks*
I must say that I was tempted to buy a cake instead of making it from scratch like Papa Yam's cake last month. But I was sick last month and this month, I was perfectly well. No excuses. So I kept it simple. I made an almond flavoured white cake (lots of egg whites after making pastry cream) with peaches in cream cheese frosting.
Well you know your gal here likes to challenge herself on time-crunched days *LOL* so she went for a new cream cheese frosting recipe...which whipped up okay but didn't quite hold up. So the cake looked pretty rustic. *hahaha*
It was yummy though. :)
