Ice Cream & Cake
It's a horrendous day in San Francisco- pouring rain and the skies are dark. I've got to admit though that this weather is a bit soothing- perfect for staying in and baking. I am going to a friend's house this weekend and bringing dessert. I am going to attempt to make Ina's Mocha Chocolate Icebox Cake as I've been eyeing the Tate's Cookies at my local grocery store.
The problem I have is serving up my dessert...I know how to do the presentation- but when it comes to cutting the cake, I am a total mess.
Sugar & Charm's post Unique Tips for Serving Cake & Ice Cream couldn't have come at a better time for me. I will report back next week with how the cake...and serving went at the party!

Cutting the cake: Use a long knife to cut a small circle in the middle of the cake. Cut the outside into wedges and the inside as you would normally.
Serving the ice cream: Place cupcake paper in a cupcake pan. Using an ice cream scooper, scoop one ball into each paper lining and transfer the tray into the freezer for a few hours. After you cut the cake, remove the scoops from each cup... you can serve in the paper or drop them onto the plate!
D.I.Y. Cookie Stands
I am all for do it yourself projects and just fell in love with Jenna's latest post over at Eat Drink Pretty. I wanted to share with you her cake (or cookie) stand project...I think it would be fun to mix and match all the cake stand colors...even better- you save yourself some money, be a little crafty and are on your way to be an entertaining diva!
