1. Strawberry Clafouti - Fail
I had strawberries and needed to make something for lunch at church. It looked great right after it was cooked, but once transported, it was ugly. Will have to try again with Cherries (what the recipe calls for).
2. Round Scone - Fail
Not sure if it's the fact that I tried to bake these early in the morning with two kids crying for my attention, but they were hard. The taste was so so, but I didn't like that they didn't flake up like I wanted. What saved the day was the strawberry jelly that I had made after picking twelve pounds of strawberries from the orchard.
3. Semi Homemade Graduation Cupcake - Success
I wanted to make something unique for my nephew's graduation and came upon a recipe from "Cake Mix Magic" magazine that called for using cake mix to make these cupcakes. Getting the colors to match his schools' was a bit hard since I had never played with coloring, but it was fun to see how they turned out. Everyone loved them. I would definitely make them again.
4. Semi Homemade Strawberry Shortcake - Success
Yes I know two successes from cake mix, but it was so easy to work with. I didn't have my camera, so the phone did the job. Picture does this cake no justice. It was topped with homemade whip cream and fresh picked strawberries. Can you tell it's strawberry season? LOL
