Cup o' Goodness - It might look disgusting here but it was a beautiful thing.
Today was one of the bosses birthday and so we had cake. In fact there were three cakes. Now I can't eat wheat and so I never get to indulge in the cake at the office birthday parties. But luckily most store bought cakes come with copious amounts of frosting which I can eat, and I do. I am quite adept at stripping a piece of cake of its frosting without disturbing the cake underneath. There is pretty regularly cake in our building and my coworkers know that I enjoy eating the frosting so some actually bring me their frosting off of their cake. It's a nice system.
So today there were three cakes in honor of a birthday and for some reason, most likely meetings, the party was at 9:30 am which meant cake for breakfast. Breakfast cake is the best. Because there were three cakes there was plenty left over by the time lunch rolled around. I happened to be in the kitchen area microwaving my lunch when I realize that the sheet cake was on the table and it had some frosting flowers on it. Now frosting flowers are the best because they come off the cake easily without disturbing the base frosting and cake below so removal doesn't waste the pieces below.
Yes that picture is a cup full of frosting. It is two flowers worth and some of the decorative edging. And yes I did eat it for my dessert after lunch. And I enjoyed every minute of it. And I am secretly hoping that there is still cake tomorrow that I might take the frosting off of again. And yes, I might have a problem.
Cake with the two full frosting flowers removed.
Notice how the underlying structure is undisturbed? Yup, I'm that good.
