Baking during the weekend | First attempt of making a cake 🎬

Last Sunday, I spent the whole afternoon attempting to bake a cake. I've been making baked goods since last year, from cookies to breads like cinnamon rolls. I have always wanted to bake cake for the reason that I want to try decorating it. The first time I tried using frosting (made from cream cheese), I realized that I'm not good in handling a frosting pipe. It was a challenge for myself, maybe, if I'll try again, I'll be able to be good at it.

First tries are really meant for just knowing the hows, right? I've made this video of how messy it was for me in trying to make my own cake. I only had a small kitchen space here in the city so it was a little difficult, but I hope you'll enjoy watching it.

Here's a detailed list of the ingredients I used for the moist cake and the buttercream frosting. I'd still probably tweak this list on my next attempts. Hehe. I'd love to know if you have some tips too, in making and working on frosting. I really had a hard time because it keeps on melting. 😅

After 5 hours of working in the kitchen, we were able to taste this lovely treat! 🤗 We even have more to store for the next days. It'll be something we can eat for dessert or snack.
