Color Striping

Just around the corner from the Gluten-Free Heart cake I made, was my mother-in-law’s birthday.  It gave me another chance to try another Gluten-Free cake.  For this one, I tried a box mix that is made by Betty Crocker.  It was White cake.

I also thought I’d try color striping since I had seen it on TV.  Before I filled my bag with the pink vanilla buttercream, I striped the bag with more pink coloring.  This made a very cool striping effect for the lines I put though the cake.  This was a very simple cake, but I loved the colors.  However I do need to keep an editing eye.

Gluten-Free Hearts

For this cake, I wanted to make something my mother-in-law could eat since she has celiac disease.  I found a recipes online for a flourless chocolate cake.  I decided to also do chocolate frosting to attempt to make it extra delicious.  If you know someone who has a gluten intolerance, you’ll know that pretty much everything that is Gluten-Free isn’t good and tastes poorly.  So I did my best.
I decorated the cake with just a little bit of pink, but mostly just white vanilla buttercream.  I kept with a heart theme and just went to town how I felt.  It wasn’t a perfect cake, but it was good to make and know how to work with Gluten-Free recipes.
