My cake is not as beautiful as the other cakes posted - but I am really proud of it. This was my first try of a three-layered cake

Most stressful cake I have EVER done. A woman reached out to me asking for a birthday cake for her autistic daughter who was turning 17, she wanted the cake to be the colour of her golden Labrador and to feature a dog on it. I tried my best, baring in mind I’m no decorator.

The outer ganache is made from Caramilk hence the gorgeous colour! The chocolate dog on top was a total nightmare to make, I used a silicone mould that was designed for firmer materials so the models kept on breaking. In the end I just stuck the broken legs back on with melted chocolate. I feel such relief that this is done, I really hope she loves it ❤️

Can somebody tell me what kind of cake this is? One tastes mainly of caramelized sugar, reminds me a bit of roasted almonds. Thank you!

How to modify this recipe to accommodate instant yeast?

This is my mom’s pizza dough recipe, as a kid it was always the best! I use instant yeast now and find the middle of the dough can still be damp/chewy? throughout the entire pizza - But everything on top and the crust is always cooked perfectly, so I don’t want to cook it longer and risk it being burnt!

Flat dense scones- help

I can’t get my (American) scones right. I use frozen grated butter, plenty of fresh baking powder. The recipe I use calls for one table spoon. My ingredients are cold and I don’t over mix. I also place them very close on the pan so they can’t spread much and should rise. Please help

Christmas Cookie Inspo

What are your favorite cookies to make for Christmas? I know it's early, but I want to get ahead so I can potentially make and freeze out cookie dough. I do a big baking weekend in December, and feel like this might save some time and stress. I typically have some tried and true favorites, but enjoy mixing in a few new options each year. I enjoy taking inspiration from different cultures, but have to avoid nuts, besides peanuts, as one of the recipients has a nut allergy and I don't want to risk contamination. Included photo from my Instagram of my Christmas 2022 bakes.
