Recipe no.2: Banana Muffins

Hey Guys! So this is my second recipe post, hope you find it incredibly useful..  Banana muffins are one of my favorite snacks because they are healthy and quick and easy to make. They're totally great for lunchboxes and you can even freeze them. I usually make them to use up any bananas that have browned slightly but fresh ones work just as good!

Cake Boss Cakes

Hey, sorry haven't blogged for a while, been so busy lately. Anyway, I watch this really great show called Cake Boss on the channel TLC and it's a program pretty much about the cakes and things they make in Carlo's bakery. It's fascinating how they make so many delicious looking cakes and how they can make them look so realistic. All of the food they make is just simply fantastic. So this post is just a review on some of my personal favorite cakes that they have made there. Hope you like it!

So this was a cake that Carlo's bakery made for a couple's wedding a while ago and it was amazing. One of the things that I love most about it is the attention to detail and the almost perfect resemblance to the Leaning Tower of Pisa. I think it's awesome how unique and original this cake was and it's lovely that the bride and groom are on it as well.











Well this is a life sized Nascar made entirely of cake! Again, the attention to detail is phenomenal and it looks so realistic. This is one of my favourite cake designs because it's big and really resembles what it's supposed to be.












This beautiful cake is one of the nicest wedding cakes that I have seen. In my opinion it is so elegant and I would love my wedding cake to be as unique and as lovely as this one. It is one of my favourite cakes that was on Cake Boss because it is so feminine and unique.













Thanks, I hope you enjoyed my blog post will post again soon! Love India xx
