This coming weekend is my sister's birthday, and in preparation, our 21-mo (J) has decided to bake a cake for her. So first, we're gonna need every condiment from the drawer, which includes coarse salt, apple cider vinegar, and raisins.
Both photos: Canon T1i | Manual | 50mm | ISO 200 | f/2.8 | 1/125 sec | SpeedLite 380EX
Next, we'll definitely need lots of baking soda, powdered sugar, and couscous for the frosting...
Ok, so maybe J didn't REALLY have the idea to bake a cake...if he did, he's wasn't THAT off on the ingredient list ;). Nevertheless, I got 4 avocados and lots of butter in the fridge just BEGGING to be made into frosting. Yes, that's right -- AVOCADO FROSTING! I heard it first from Rachel at Bubbly Nature Creations. And the creator of such amazingness -- Dorothy from Crazy for Crust. I think I'm going to frost some vanilla cupcakes. And then maybe lick the inside of the frosting bag too ;).
Would you try avocado frosting?
Have a great weekend!
Show some love. Leave a comment below and I'll definitely respond!

ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I never heard of such a thing. But it is something I need to try. Yummy!
ReplyDeleteI've heard of avocado frosting, but never tried it. You'll have to let me know how it comes out. Just the other weekend, a friend brought over a salad and had whipped an avocado into the honey mustard dressing to make it a bit creamier. It was actually really good.
ReplyDeletekayla LOVES helping me bake cupcakes! her favorite is the frosting part; she tends to eat most of the frosting and it ends up all over her hands than the cupcakes!

ReplyDeleteI bet J loved seeing so many things taken out of the cupboard now within arm's reach! How was the avocado frosting? Did it taste like a light type of frosting? Very curious!
