Marshmallow Buttercream Frosting
Perfect for any cake!
Banana-Nut Buttermilk Bundt Cake
This Bundt cake has a hint of spice with a bit of crunch to the outside and a light texture on the inside and is made with buttermilk. Not overly sweet, so I prefer it without frosting. A nice replacement for banana bread, very moist. May add frosting or powdered sugar for presentation but this cake is excellent by itself.
Anaheim Fish Tacos
I created this one to make mouths dance. I love fish tacos, but don't like the fried versions or cabbage. Not really for kids, though - a bit flavorful. Serve with authentic Mexican cheese, sour cream, fresh cilantro, lettuce, and lime.
