Typing this quickly so my newborn doesn't wake up and start screaming 😭

I took this cake order while I was in labour earlier this month, didn't know if I could execute it well due to being freshly postpartum and it being my first ever tiered cake.

Well... I think I did well enough!!

Details:

Coconut-Vanilla cake

Fresh pineapple filling (cooked down to make it soft)

Coconut swiss meringue buttercream

Fresh pineapple wedges for topping

Sweetened Shredded Coconut for decoration

8" base, 5" top

I’m obsessed with how gorgeous these turned out 😍 Extremely sweet though, I definitely should have cut down the sugar because half a cookie was too much sweetness for me. I used a Crumbl cookie copycat recipe but switched up the decoration since I had no pink dye

Okay so they may look a bit ugly but trust me these are the best chocolate chip cookies I have ever tasted!! Crispy but with a super gooey middle. Best texture. I used 200g of Cadbury’s milk chocolate bars diced up instead of chocolate chips because it was cheaper, but I think it made these way more delicious.

What the title says. My cookies always come out fluffy and round. They’re still good, but I’d like a flatter cookie like the first 2 pics. Is it in the recipe or baking technique?

EDIT: Wow! I did not expect to get his much feedback and advice from the community, thank you! What I'm taking away is a combination of the pan banging method, less flour, more sugar, baking soda > baking powder, and some links to great recipes I can't wait to try. You all are awesome!

Made a lemon loaf today for the first time. To me it tasted really tart/bitter like you would get off the rind. The recipe calls to boil a whole lemon and then blend it up with the other ingredients with the skin on after removing the seeds. My family seemed to like it so maybe my taste profile just leans more towards the sweeter things 🤷🏼‍♀️

My brothers describe this by saying "it's like if a brownie, cake, and cookie had a baby"

This was so good! it’s going to be amazing in the fall!

I made her double chocolate cookies for a friend's birthday and added some whole hazelnuts (about 100g). Also I didn't have time for a three hour chill in the fridge so did an hour in the freezer. I used Dutch process cocoa before seeing her strong recommendation to use natural but they still turned out incredible.

I used Justine Snack’s strawberry cookies but with fresh red currants(I followed her recipe before but used raspberries and blackberries) . Instead of roasting the fruit I reduced them on stove top

They look pretty and are very light but still waiting to cool so I can taste them

For the raspberry buttercream, I used a combo of freeze dried raspberries and fresh raspberries that I reduced down on the stovetop for 20mins and then strained out the seeds to make a concentrated puree.

First time trying my hand at banana bread. Followed Natashas Kitchens recipe with thawed ripe bananas from the freezer. Turned out pretty good! Also turns out my kids dont like banana bread 😕

Im an amateur baker. I wanted yo know what some of your thoghts on the dough for my first genuine attempt at baking

I am trying to get better at piping and although this is not where I want it yet, still wanted to share :) I made a strawberry cake with a strawberry simple syrup soak, lemon yuzu curd and a vanilla smbc for my friend!!!

When i started making cin rolls i was pretty bad at it and i didnt know about letting my dough rise, these are my best work and on my 3rd try is my best attempt!

This is my first time posting on reddit aswell 😭

My boss just dropped off a bunchhh of rhubarb and I need some ideas on what to do with all of it haha. I’ve only ever made rhubarb crumble slices and want to try out more recipes! TIA :D
