New Year's Eve 2010/2011

Happy New Year to all my blog readers. This past NYE, I celebrated with a group of good friends. Dinner was done "potluck tapas style" and different guests had been assigned different items to bring in order to not have someone spend all of NYE in the kitchen. As is common on occasions like this, I had been assigned to dessert duty, and decided to go with an old favorite. The Stockholm Chocolate Festival cake that I made before was such a huge success, was really delicious, and wasn't all to hard to make (for some definition of hard...), so making that again was a choice that couldn't go wrong.

That was a very good decision as it turned out just as good this time around. I used my edible gold spray paint and some glitter of various colors to make it glamorous for the occasion. Pictures below:

Decorated so that we know what year we are entering.




It's NYE after all, so we need some sparklers.
