I'm a huge procrastinator. I think I need to write more notes.
Anyway, this cake was actually a practice round for an episode of a tv show I'm going to be on. So in about a week or so I will be going to Finland for the first time in my life. Very exciting!

Hej!
ReplyDeleteUndrar bara om du inte kan göra fler videos på hur du gör några av dina tårtor i din bok? Fick den i julklapp och har testat fyra fem stycken men dom blir inte alls lika fina som dina så jag tänkte att du kanske kunde visa på film hur man får till en fin utsida med frostingen?
Tack för mig :D
Fantastiskt! Allt du rör vid blir till sockerguld :)
ReplyDeleteLOVE LOVE LOVE! I made this wonderful cake, thanks Linda, you're awesome!
