Interesting Things

Cool stuff I bookmarked this week:

Whiskey cake in a jar from Sprinkle Bakes.  I love the idea of cake in a jar.

Baked and Breaded Pickles from Healthy Tipping Point   Fried pickles are so awesome, I am looking forward to trying this slightly healthier version

Crown Jewel Cake from Sprinkle Bakes.  So pretty!

Lemon Cornmeal Breakfast Cake from Joy the Baker  I am a sucker for anything with cornmeal in it.  I love the texture..

Gluten

 Just found this interesting article about some of the science behind bread baking and gluten.  I find it helpful in baking when I understand the chemistry behind the magic.

Just a good idea

I can't remember where I saw this, but adding some of that gripper shelf paper to my cake carrier changed my life.  Seriously.  I take dessert a lot of places and up until last Christmas I did not have a cake carrier.  I thought my cake carrier was awesome, but then I read about putting this non skid shelf paper between the cake and the carrier.  It makes a huge difference.  No more cake smears on the sides of the cake carrier.  It's so good!
