I would really like to get some new furniture for the living room. So, I always start my journey looking at some of my favorite web-sites before I head out in the car. I really do love Pottery Barn. While looking I decided to click on baby girl bedding. No, I'm not having any announcements to make. But it is fun to look at all the baby items and I do have a friend due this summer with twins. I saw the cutest princess fairy pattern.
Ever since I started baking and dabbling in cake decorating I get inspiration from just about everything. I've tried explaining this to other people. The only ones who seem to understand are those who love art like myself.
I had read about a web-based cake decorating contest on a web-site I go to all the time. The theme is Baby Showers. Well, with the inspiration of the baby bedding I just saw. I was motivated to enter.
The cake recipe I made was adapted from the Ina Garten Lemon Pound cake. This by far is one of my favorite basic cake recipes. Very lemony! I filled the layers with seedless Raspberry Jam and frosted with a basic Cream Cheese icing. The cake is two layers. 8" square and 4" round.

Once I learn how to post a photo I shall be off and running, but still waiting for my photography daughter to find time to teach me.
Just love the cheesecake and plum combo. Sounds voluptuous. I can see you are one talented cake decorator!
