I'm not a baker, but...

My ex's birthday is tomorrow and she has been having a bad couple of weeks, so I and my stepdaughter made her a cake... a vegan carrot cake with vegan cream cheese frosting, and did some amateurish decorating. No snide comments, we think we did good for a couple of nonbakers.

That's so cute! It looks great haha. Good job guys
Ontheroad · M
@Notsimilarreally Yeah, the carrot on top makes it fun. The mess though.... I'm ignoring it bit it will take me longer to clean up than it did to decorate the cake🤣

@Ontheroad baking is indeed messy

That’s so sweet! Such a nice gesture!!
It’s nice to see people being kind to their ex….

Like me for example:
For my ex’s birthday I sent him a nice bath bomb.
…well, [i]you[/i] would probably call it a toaster, but hey, it’s the thought that counts right?
Ontheroad · M
@ImpeccablyImperfect Exactly! It's all about the thought, never mind what that thought might be😁
ImpeccablyImperfect · 51-55, F
All jokes aside though, it really is a sweet thing to do 😊

That's really generous of you and I'm sure she will love the thought and effort.
Ontheroad · M
@SunshineGirl We are great pals, so we do stuff for one another, plus her kids and I are still close to one another.

Aww so cute and thoughtful
Ontheroad · M
@Lilymoon My stepdaughter loves those baking shows and she decided if they can make cool cakes, then we could too. It was a blast!
Lilymoon · F
@Ontheroad sweet! I love cooking shows .. I could watch them all day
Ontheroad · M
@Lilymoon Molly makes me watch the British Baking Show series with her... I've seen all of them like ten times🤣

This is really stellar!! Ty for sharing😀🍰
Looks good. I'd say that's a success.
Ontheroad · M
@shakemeup It was a success and it even tasted good.
Jeephikelove · 46-50, F
Looks great! I hoe it tastes good too
Ontheroad · M
@Jeephikelove Pardon me? I'm no longer married to her, so what she does isn't my business🤣
Justice4All · 36-40, M
Great job for an amateur. Looks delicious too
BittersweetPotato · 31-35, F
Are you vegan? 🥔🤔 Or she is?
Ontheroad · M
@BittersweetPotato She is, but we were married for so long, I learned to eat and cook most things vegan.
Mooed78 · F
That looks yum 😋.
Ontheroad · M
@Mooed78 We'll find out tomorrow. Now I gotta go clean up the mess we made🥺
Mooed78 · F
@Ontheroad The cleanup 🥴
deadteddy · 26-30, F

A delicious cake without the guilt and it looks great. Enjoy 😘
Ontheroad · M
@Elanor Now if I could figure out how to make it less than a million calories per slice😁

That’s so nice of you and you did a great job.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@Ontheroad have you ever done it before? You did pretty good.
Ontheroad · M
@iamonfire696 No... I've made a cake before, but never the whole vegan thing, and never tried to make vegan fondant and cut-out shapes to decorate with.

I now know why these cake decorators charge so much.

It was all Google and trial and error, but still, it was fun.
iamonfire696 · 41-45, F
@Ontheroad that was a great attempt at vegan fondant.

And yes, it definitely takes skill and time.
Lilnonames · F
thats awesome im sure u will see a big smile😊
Ontheroad · M
@Lilnonames It was fun, Molly, my stepdaughter has Down's and she is a riot to do things with.
Lilnonames · F
@Ontheroad then all way around it was a big hit😀
