Roopa It was my volleyball coach’s birthday this week, so some kind of baking was in order. It’s right in the midst of mini egg season and I got some really beautiful pastel sprinkles in my subscription, so I decided to make a giant cookie with some whipping cream to hold the sprinkles. I don’t … More Giant Mini Egg Cookie
Roopa My sister saw my other sprinkley treats and she decided she wanted something also, so I made some cookie butter bars. I also got to use my new plate from Anthropologie!!

I’m 26 and I want to draw on … More Rainbow Doodle Cake
Roopa A friend of mine had a birthday/going away and another friend was in town from Berlin, so obviously I had to bake something.

I also decided to fill them with lemon pudding, because why not? … More Chocolate Cupcakes with Strawberry Icing
Roopa It was my friend Gina’s birthday recently, so obviously a baking date was necessary. After some searching, we decided on a simplified version of these lavender lemon cupcakes.
