I’m a little behind, but for the second week in our Month of Mickey, I decided to feature one of Mickey’s most famous roles. As part of Fantasia, Mickey portrays the sorcerer’s apprentice. In his red robes, Mickey borrows the sparkling blue sorcerer’s hat and animates brooms to help him finish his chores.…
Steamboat Willie Ice Cream Cake
This month, Mickey Mouse is turning 90 years old and to celebrate I’ll be doing a month of Mickey Mouse inspired cakes! For me, Mickey is a spark of joy, a constant friend, and a reminder of magic and great memories. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate this very special mouse and I’m so excited to share all of these cakes with you!…
Mickey Mummy Cupcakes
It’s almost Halloween! Since Halloween falls on a weekday this year, we donned our costumes and decided to celebrate this weekend. Of course, no Halloween party is complete without some spooky treats so I made a batch of these not-so-scary Mickey Mummy Cupcakes!
I saw these adorable cupcakes on Disney Family a few years ago and since the mummy wrappings are made out of marshmallow, I knew that my recipe for chocolate cupcakes with marshmallow frosting would be the perfect fit.…
Warm Chocolate Pudding with Irish Cream Liqueur Custard
I’m a little late posting this week because I just got back from the EPCOT Food & Wine Festival. I had always wanted to go and feel so lucky that I was able to see it this year. There were so many amazing foods and I loved being able to eat my way around the world!…
Hundred Acre Wood Donuts
The new Christopher Robin movie comes out today and I can’t wait to see it this weekend! I’ve previously mentioned my love of Winnie the Pooh and his Hundred Acre friends and I’m excited to see what how this new story brings them to life. To get ready for the premiere, I made these super cute donuts inspired by Pooh, Piglet, Tigger, and (my favorite) Eeyore.…
Dole Whip Cupcakes
While visiting Disney World in March, I had my first Dole Whip, which is a little surprising given the number of times I’ve been to a Disney Park. It was sweet, delicious, and refreshing and it made me wonder why I had gone so long without trying one. This recent heat wave had me thinking about that Dole Whip and so I whipped up a batch of Dole Whip inspired cupcakes.…
Queen of Hearts Battenberg Cake
It’s been awhile! With the start of summer, things have been busy but I’m excited to share this new recipe with you. I was recently watching an old episode of the Great British Baking Show and I was intrigued by the challenge to make a Battenberg cake. This cake isn’t very common in the US, but I loved the checkerboard pattern and was immediately reminded of the topsy-turvy fun found in Alice in Wonderland.…
Pooh’s Honey Pots
Although not originally Disney, Winnie the Pooh and his friends have a special place in my heart. The animated cartoons captured my imagination and I still remember meeting Pooh, Tiger, and a very shy Piglet during my first trip to Disney World. My friends usually think of me as an Eeyore, but I also see some of myself in Pooh Bear–especially his love of snacking and the constant quest for something sweet.…
