I Love your Blog ~ Amanda's I am baker

If you love baking or you love reading baking blogs,you shouldn't miss Amanda's blog.I discovered I am Baker sometime back and I am hooked to it.Amanda is a mother of four and churns out baking goodies one after the other,not only for her family,but for her friends and acquaintances as well-how sweet is that!

Amanda is a pro in Cake decorating,still she challenges herself from time to time by decorating different cakes using the same icing tip.Check this out-


Wilton grass tip for 3 different Cakes




















Cake by the Numbers


















She also posts detailed tutorials for beginner cake decorators with step by step pictures.


Lilac Cake Tutorial


















Rose Cake Tutorial































Rose Cookie Tutorial


















Vertical Layer Cake Tutorial




Have you ever seen a cake with 25 layers?Amanda thinks she's crazy to attempt something like this but someone who struggles with even 2-3 layers,I feel it isn't crazy from any angle.It is sheer determination.Check out her 25 layered July 4th Cake.




























When she had a baby boy,she made these cookies to celebrate and share it with her family,friends and hospital staff.


It's a Boy Cookies
















Check out how she used one cake mix to make 6 different cakes in jars for a deserving family who had just had their first baby.



















Her Mother's day cake almost had me teary eyed,which mother wouldn't like to have a cake like this?






















Last but not the least,here is a Homemade Cake recipe mix which she uses for most of her cakes.

  13. Great blog, Amanda's and yours too.

    I bake but I suck at decorating cakes. Truth is I've never really given it a serious shot. Looking at these pictures, I'm so motivated to give it a shot.

  14. Wow, I had somehow never bumped into Amanda's site. Thanks for sharing. It's a treasure trove for bakers.

    And if I am to start a 'I love your blog' series, yours and Ria's would top the list! Most bakes I have acquired in my kitty are from both your blogs.

    good question about cleaning counter after the paratha circus ;)..
    believe me the whole thing was tiring than a 10 km speed walk on treadmill..
    I prepared the veech paratha and the shooting section too the same day and got shocked to see the oil and flour smeared lenses..
    rested for the next two days :P
