A pretty cake for Angie

Well this is my first post and it’s hard to start.

I’ve wanted to write a blog for a while but didn’t know what subject to focus on. Instead of any one thing I’ve decided to focus on all things pretty. So let’s get started!

Tonight I made a red velvet cake for my friends birthday. It was my first attempt at a red velvet and also my first attempt at the weaved basket icing effect.

I used this recipe to make the cake http://allrecipes.com.au/recipe/10766/red-velvet-cake.aspx

I was extremely hesitant to use this recipe becuase I’ve never baked with vinegar before, but it in the end I think turned out pretty good and I don’t think the vinegar could be tasted.

I used this tutorial to help with the weaved icing. http://www.wonderhowto.com/how-to-decorate-cake-basket-weave-pattern-214451/
