I make a fraisier each year for my boyfriend's birthday but it's still too early for the strawberries to be really tasty where we live, so he wanted it with pineapple instead, and I had so much fun making it

It's made with crème mousseline, génoise, passion curd, fresh pineapple -obviously-, and tiny meringues that almost caused a fire because I accidentally torched the parchment paper too 😬

Boyfriend is happy, said it was really good, fresh, and lighter than with strawberries (half of it is already gone in one night, the other half is probably going to disappear today, he's like a cake annihilator sometimes)

My take on the Starbucks chocolate pistachio loaf because I got completely hooked… and my wallet started leaving a big dent every coffee run 😂💚🍫

So… I had to start baking my own hahaha. And honestly… isn’t the marbling gorgeous?! 😍💚

Not the best ever, but interesting

My insanely talented and amazing best friend (who does not have Reddit but gave me permission to show her work) made these cookies for my baby's first birthday! I'm blown away and so proud of her!! Thought I'd share her beautiful work with people who can appreciate it! ❤️

(I have edited the ones with baby's name just because I don't post that here — so the cookies with "R" are her name lol)
