So originally I thought I was going to make a business out of my baking, but what I learned in Psych 101 came true. When you do something you like to do and get paid for it... you start to hate it. Cupcakes are such a long task- I love the decorating part, but knew if I going to sell my work, I should make it from scratch. Making from scratch is a long, pricey process. So from now on, I'm going back to the good old box variety. Cheap, and it tastes good.
Now on to my Christmas Baking! Sugar cookies, biscotti... ahhh- this I enjoy. Partly because you can eat more than 1 and not feel bad (unlike cupcakes). Additionally, and more importantly they last so much longer than cupcakes. What I hated about cupcakes is that is must be made and consumed ideally within 24 hours. (Pretty tiring when you're preggers). But my first love can be made over a few days, and still taste good! A much easier task to take on when your growing a person.
So this explains why there has been no post since May- been busy baking a baby. : )
Now photos of my latest creations!
