Raise your hand if you can keep up with the “national food days.” Anyone? Anyone? I proudly have both of my hands down because I, for one, cannot. So much, in fact, that I completely missed the National S’mores Day mark by less than a week, and there was nothing I could do about it…

Funfetti Snowballs + A Giveaway!
This giveaway is closed. Congratulations to Nora (from A Clean Bake) for winning! Thank you to everyone who entered.

Dark Chocolate Layer Cake with Peanut Butter Frosting
While Valentine’s Day may already be behind us, I think the whole month of February, or at least the remainder of this week, deserves to pump out some extra love, don’t you agree? And since we’re already into the second month of 2017, I owe you another Cake of The Month. All that said, I…
Yellow Layer Cake with Chocolate Buttercream
I spoke briefly about my resolve to start getting some cake recipes up on the blog, and here’s your first installment. I’m going to try my very very hardest to bring you one cake per month (#fafcakeofthemonth) for the rest of 2017. This means 12 different cakes, and (I’m hoping) 12 different frostings. The idea is that you’ll have an endless…
