How To Frost A Cake

– Instructions From A Pro –

~~~  And Easter Recipes  ~~~

When we crave something sweet and there is nothing prepared already, I bake a cake.  Although there are only two of us in our household, I have relatives close by who can share with us, when the cake is still fresh and luscious.

I’m not the pro mentioned in the headline. Heh.

When I decided to write this article, I thought I’d check online and see how many articles like it there are. Turns out, there are not that many. Huh. There are tons of videos but not that many (really good) articles that give directions in writing.  Even with that, I read a few of the articles I did find and since they state exactly what I wanted to say, I thought I’d simply give you the best I found along with the link and credit to the website where it resides. AND who has the very best article? — (IMHO)

Paula Deen – People LOVE this southern bell.

We love her too, down to earth and gritty even, she is the epitome of the home based southern cook.  In her article on how to frost a cake, everything is in line and perfect.  Going by her directions at PaulaDeen.com you’ll be able to frost a beautiful home baked cake without any problems.  Nothing fancy, just reminds us of our own home kitchen and similar cake we like to make too.

With Easter right around the corner here are a couple more things we found that we wanted to share with our baker friends.

Bunny Cupcakes – These are SO cute

Grandma Hier’s Carrot Cake – Paula says “Not just any old carrot cake!” and from the photo it looks so unique I may be making this one for Easter dinner!

E is for EGGS and Eggs are for Easter 

Traditional Southern Deviled Eggs – I make some great deviled eggs but may have to try out Paula’s recipe as it is a tad different than my own.

Egg Casserole – A novel recipe and idea for Easter. The more eggs the better!  But best of all, with this recipe you have a way to use all the died eggs too.  Something to go with the leftover ham or lamb.

That’s not all I found great about PaulaDeen.com but you can find all the great, good and yummy recipe stuff there for yourself.  Starting out to write the simple instructions for icing a cake tuned into a fun morning spent with Paula Deen.  Although we all know these celebrity people are online, how often do we think to go to their individual websites and take the time to seriously look around?  It really is worth the effort and time spent.
