My favorite things to cook
I love to bake! Baking bread is my specialty, but I also like to do cakes, pies, cookies, ect.
My favorite family cooking traditions
Rum cakes and Rum balls every Christmas (also starting to do a real fruitcake and real stollen every year too). Tamales for Christmas as well. Hot cross buns and carrot cupcakes every year for Easter. Pumpkin/Jack O Lantern cakes for Halloween.
My cooking triumphs
3-10-inch layer cake, almond paste flavored cake with a rum buttercream: my very first perfectly decorated cake!
