Had a great weekend with family...parents came over Friday and stayed until Monday; sister and her family came over Sunday for a cook out. We did a belated Fathers' Day celebration with our dad on Sunday. When I was deciding on what to make for dessert, I knew this cake would be perfect. Orange Creamsicle cake. I did change it up a little...I did not make cupcakes or use her icing recipe. Due to time limitations I decided to make a cake and I used store bought frosting. I picked up one of the new stir in frosting in orange creme flavor...it was good, but pretty sweet. So....to help cut the sweetness I did not frost the middle of the cake, but used orange marmalade instead. It was YUMMY! I also made strawberry cheesecake in little mason jars. We had a nice dinner, visiting time, and yummy desserts.
Now to get my craft on...I need to make cards, do a challenge, finish up some swaps....feels like a Monday :) Hope you are having a WONDERFUL day! Thanks for stopping by.
