I'm a twenty-six year old 
cake, originally uploaded by mayfair.
I made a gluten-free cake for my sister’s 10th birthday party. Oh, my god. The icing was so good. The recipe was :
- 8 tbsp butter
- 1/3 cup water
- 4 cups powered sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup cocoa
Soften the butter, then add the other ingredients. Whip with a mixer until it looks like icing. Then eat entire thing out of bowl. Screw the cake. It’s just filler.
Mmmmm.
I make my icing with shortening. Less melty.
It was actually pretty thick and not so melty. The only probably was that it took a while to cool, and my grandmother made a “tent” of tinfoil over the cake, which fell and took some of the icing off. I was not a happy girl.
I think I will make cupcakes next. I am going to fatten up for winter. Not that Memphis really has a winter.
