Fast forward to later that afternoon... I evidently inherited my sweet tooth (aka my love for all things chocolate) from my mom, she decides to make the Perfect Size cake. Anticipation abounds.. she said it was not very hard to make at all. You still have to use all of the things you use to make a regular size cake...no time saver there. It comes with it's own pan to cook it in... that is pretty cool. The frosting is a powdered mix you have to add butter and water to... and once again mom said it was pretty easy to make.
Faster fast forwarding... Ok so now supper has been eaten and the dishes have been done... tv watching commences... oh and the I really need a piece of chocolate cake and a scoop of ice cream gene kicks in... so me n mom get a piece of the cake and a scoop of ice cream... and once again anticipation abounds.
So I get a nice big bite of cake and just the right amount of ice cream on my spoon...oh how the mouth watering sequence starts...and 3..2..1... oh my it is the best...wait...wait...what??? What is this???? It is the most dry cake I have ever.. I mean...EVER.... eaten. And the frosting... totally disgusting... I truly wonder if they even tested it before they started manufacturing it. The chocolate taste in the frosting was so artificial tasting, you really want to scrape it off and make your stand by frosting (which in my case most of the time is the canned type, since there is an opened can with spoon impressions in it in my fridge most of the time!!) Oh what am I saying.. throw the cake away and just eat the canned frosting..it would be so much better!
So friends I just wanted to give you a little heads up and save yo'self $3.50 for a small cake. If you only want a slice of cake do yourself a favor, stop by the bakery and buy a slice of cake.. you won't be disappointed like you would be if you made this Perfect Size cake.
Oh and on the new knee front..hopefully I will be back to making videos in the next week or so.. I miss cooking for y'all.
Hope to see you on youtube soon my friends.
