Happy May friends, I can't wait to share with you some of my favorite May treats, and this is one of them!
There is nothing more exciting than the first day of May, 90 degree weather and a great reason to make a cake! And when you find out you're having a SKINNY cake, it instantly tastes better! Growing up, one of the best parts about a birthday was what kind of cake you would have, of course, that was before I began counting how many grams of fat was in that amazing frosting and how to count calories!
This session in particular was the most fun yet, my beautiful Momma, Lynita Elkin, (and fabulous baker), showed up to help me bake a cake for my sisters birthday, the one I spoke of a few Tuesday's ago, and to spend some quality time with her favorite, me! The cake was pretty simple to whip up, and was a huge hit! Nothing better than a light and fluffy cake to celebrate a party full of family, margaritas and marbled balloons!
