Taste the Rainbow. For Jasmine with 'Pride'

         There's a commercial with the slogan "taste the rainbow" i have no idea what it is right now, but i'll remember it, i thought about how my cake doesn't have all the rainbow colors so its just a taste of the rainbow :).

       One weekend off work, i got into this baking spirit and i kept telling myself i was baking for Jasmine. Jasmine is my darling niece, i love her so much. When she grows up we would be baking together, which is pretty soon judging from how fast she's going. :)

       Meanwhile few friends came over after church on Sunday and we sat on pieces of cake, my one friend Nonso said "Am i baking for pride?" i said "what do you mean?" he goes: "the rainbow you know, the colours" and i said "ooooohhhh..y not"! lol. why the hell not! Its love.

So here's a cake for 'jasmine', baked with 'pride' hehe.

 

I used the same recipe that i usually use for plain cakes. It should be in the recipe Box of the website. However i put different flavors into the different layers of the cake. For the bottom layer i used milk chocolate bars; melted, for the pink layer i used a banana; crushed. For the yellow later, i used a drop of vanilla extract,and i put some lemon into the green layer. 

The chocolate frosting! yum!

Banana stole the show though, i swear it did. 

Happy May 1st Guys! I hope you have an awesome WORK  month with love and PRIDE!

Bisous!!

Banana Cake. (Perfect go!)

I have tried many recipes to banana cake; here is my perfect go. This recipe is from another blogger, i posted it on the recipe page and i put all the steps there as well.  The cake turns out moist, fluffy and soft. 3 bananas are used too.

 I added in nuts because of Zippy. (who is Zippy? you must be wondering). First, she is an exceptional young woman who inspires me in many ways for various reasons. She makes the best cakes too {The best Pound cake goes to my Aunty Mary tho}.. Zippy always has some sort of nuts in her cakes, I'll have to make her give me her recipe... even tho i know it comes to her naturally lol.

i Know it looks burnt but it ain't yo. lol . BTW i know its been a while and you missed me, so here : GROS BISOUS!! ;)
