sunflower.cake


For lent this year, I gave up the most precious, enjoyed piece of my life...chocolate! Ok, so maybe a little dramatic, but chocolate is up there. This cake was my celebration of making it from Ash Wednesday to Easter Sunday without chocolate (except for the accidental mocha frappe...oops!). Quite an accomplishment I might add! So, I guess I should add something about the baking now. But...um...here's the thing, I cheated and used a box mix. (insert moment of shame here) And I wish the Peep sunflower decoration was my idea, but again I cheated and copied a recipe off of my favorite website to browse while in class, tasteofhome.com. Sometimes a baker takes the easy way out...especially if she has nursing finals the next two days!
