Ace of Cakes? More Like Ace of MISTAKES!! (I don’t know.)

August 18, 2008
One time in middle school I baked a cake with my friend (I was the coolest at middle school) and it was a mocha cake. It called for chocolate and instant coffee so we added chocolate and instant coffee. You guys, I have an insider tip for the next time that you are baking a mocha cake. When the recipe says “two TBS instant coffee”, what they mean is “brew some instant coffee and then add two tablespoons of the resulting hot, liquid coffee to your cake batter” what they do not mean is “add two tablespoons of gross instant coffee grounds to your cake batter” EVEN THOUGH THAT’S BASICALLY WHAT THEY JUST SAID. Whatever. Because that recipe was an idiot, our finished cake was a crumbly dirt-looking mess. It was not good to the last drop (instant coffee jokes!).  My point is that even though that cake looked and tasted like a clod of dirt from the ground and was basically the worst thing I’ve ever baked, we are still the best at cake making because we take the proffesional cakes on my new favorite site ever, cakewrecks.blogspot.com to school, son.

What?! That wasn’t what the customer wanted!!

Go look at this site until you finish the site. That’s what I did.
