Are you on board the salted honey train? Thinking about hopping off? In the dining car, reading a newspaper and looking dapper? Or are you in favor of salted honey but tired of tortured food metaphors? Whatever your position on the salted honey trend, I hope you're open to one more variation on the theme.
If all goes well, this will be the last dessert I truly eat for...awhile. Like a month. Or maybe more. (Pause for dramatic effect.) Don't get me wrong. I'm still going to keep making and posting new dessert recipes on SugarHero, and I'm still going to taste-test them all to make sure that I love them and think they're perfect.
As a southern Californian, I don't know that I can talk about the arrival of spring with a straight face. While it's not true that we "don't have seasons," as so many transplants are fond of complaining (usually spoken while wearing flip-flops in January and waving around an iced coffee), our seasonal changes are not so much a shift as a gradual slide.
Can we all agree that it's summer already? I don't care what the calendar says. Summer solstice, shummer shmolshtice.

I know that this is probably shocking to you because I'm so tough and active and outdoorsey, but camping just isn't my thing.
I made this sweet little bumblebee cake for a friend's daughter's birthday last week. I don't do too many special occasion cakes any more, so it's always fun to dust off the old fondant rolling pin and get down to business. The party was bee themed, and I took my design inspiration from the super-cute invitations.
Pineapple Whip Cupcakes bring all the flavor of the frozen treat to cupcake form. You'll feel like you're at the best place on Earth all over again! School is back in session, and I'm not sorry. I love the summer vacation, I do.
Pumpkin shmumpkin. You have months left to enjoy pumpkin desserts! Let's forgo the gourd for a minute, change it up a little, and say goodbye to the last of the berries with this stunning Chocolate Raspberry Mousse Cake.
