World Baking Day!!!

So yesterday was World Baking Day!! and we had a whole lot of fun...
A few friends and I decided to tackle this thing called baking and really put ourselves to the test. It was quite a task only being allowed to choose ONE delicious thing to bake from the hundred recipes...decisions, decisions! Would love to be ambitious and actually bake all 100! Hmmm...maybe I'll leave that for another day.
 
So here are just a few pics of some of the delicious things we baked!

 
Level 45: Milk Tart Cake
I had SUCH fun putting this cake together! but I must admit I'm glad no one was watching me...kitchen looked like a bomb hit it and I ate WAY to much cake batter and oh my gosh, that ganache had me licking every inch of the bowl (after I had iced the cake of course!) but anyway, it was fun, as baking should always be...click here for the recipe
 
 
 
Level 78: Peanut Butter and Chocolate cake
(click here for the recipe)
 
 
Level 52: Fig Walnut Cake
(click here for recipe)
 
 
Level 80 : Lime Chocolate Sauce cake
(click here for recipe)
 
 
Level 50: Raspberry and White Chocolate cupcakes
(click here for the recipe)
 
 
Level 39: Layer Cake with lemon, raspberries and mascarpone
(heres the recipe)
 
 
And here are all the Bakers!!
 
 
Thanks ladies for making it a fun and rather delicious afternoon! And thanks to the organisers of World Baking Day, great idea, can't wait to do it again!
