Meeting Two - Pokemon and the Birth of the Stripe Cake
Date: 29th August 2009
Place: Cake Brigade Member Polson's Unit Base
Members: Polson, Faulkner, Bradley, Edkins, Cunnane-Neilan(?).
The primary reason for this meeting was to make Rach's long suffering boyfriend, Jon, and uber cool birthday cake. We had decided to use a brownie kit to do this, as at this point, we were still unsure of our amazing skills in the kitchen. Following the instructions, we made two brownies, and put them together with chocolate butter cream in the middle. A small mishap occurred when the brownies didn't want to come out of the tins in one piece, so we took them outside and gently teased them out. We then iced the top to make it look like a Pokemon Ball, because we are the vision of cool. We dropped Rachel at Jon's, who was obviously delighted with our creation.
If memory serves, Linzi and I then went to pig out at pizza hut while Zoe was at Brownies or something before returning to continue the meeting. This may have been a completely different day, however, as I seem to remember Elle being around, but don't know where she would have gone to in the meantime.
We made another fridge cake, which was much more sickly than the last one, as well as more rocky road style cakes, and flapjack. While making a cake that I think was supposed to be a marble cake, we came up with the idea of doing it in stripes, alternating chocolate cake mix with plain cake mix. We filled it with chocolate butter cream, an saw that it was good. Thus the Stripe Cake was born.
