Good Sunday morning, Friends! It's beautiful, cool, and rainy here in the Pacific Northwest, and I couldn't be happier than a pig wallerin' in mud! :D Well, on second thought, actually, I could be happier... if only instead of drizzly rain, it was a nice rain storm, with a lil' thunder and lightning... now, then I would be as happy, but this weather will surely do! *wink*
I have quite a few things on my "To Do" list today, including getting several more fabric pun'kins made up, and I'm not real sure what other crafting I may conquer, but hopefully I'll either complete or start something else. H'mmm...
Currently, I'm fixin' up a batch of Organic Cinnamon/Vanilla Spiced French Toast, topped off with my "famous" homemade syrup, for all the heathens, children. *wink* And later today, I sure hope to find time to whip up four more loaves of zucchini bread. I can always have my Rainy take care of that- she likes to bake as well, and that'll give me a lil' more time at the crafting table, etc.
Well, I should get on with the real purpose of this post: to share my latest YUMMY pantry cakes. Of course, by "yummy" I do not mean "to the tummy." These are strictly for "decorative" purposes only, however, boy! do they smell DELICIOUS! :) Most of them are simply "Cinnamon Spiced" scent, but there are also a few that are "Hazelnut/Cinnamon Spiced." I really loved how the finished product turned out, after decorating them up a bit. ...I sure hope they do well at the shoppe!
So, on with the Pantry Cakes, already, right!?
Honestly, I know the cakes have a "Christmas-y" feel to them, but I really think they "qualify" for year-round decor. Then again ...as an "afterthought," I wonder if I'm just trying to convince myself of that, or if I really do actually believe it? H'mmm... I cannot decide- GO FIGURE! 0_o
Thank you for stopping by, and I'll be doing the same again real soon! Happy Sunday! May yours be peaceful and blessed. ♥

How do you make these...they are beautiful!!!
ReplyDeleteLaurianne, there are actually several recipes for these wonderful lil' cakes all over. Just do a quick internet search on "[Primitive]Pantry Cakes" and you're sure to find one that's to your liking/convenience. If you have any trouble finding, just let me know, and I can send you a couple of different links. ;)
ReplyDeleteFor a more "custom" scent (like the Hazelnut I used for some of these), you can choose a "flavored" coffee of your choice, and I've found the dry grounds are just as good as using wet. I've used both- no problem. If I have used grounds from the coffee pot, I'll use those, and if not, I'll use them in the recipe straight from the container/bag. Doesn't seem to matter either way. :)
If you make any, please do share, and have fun! You'll love them! Easy-Peasy!
Blessings,
Morgan
