P looooves the idea of desserts. But there are very few sugary items he'll just chow down on (mint ice cream and rolos aside). This, of course, doesn't detract from his intense love of them and, therefore, his request to create new sugary confections. Confections that then either rot from neglect or ruin his parents' waistlines :)
So, earlier this year, his favorite set of twins had a train shaped birthday cake which inspired P like no cake before. He finally landed a mold and was hot to cook. He made the batter, poured it in the pan and then decorated it too. The only downside to such a cake is that it is just too precious to P to be eaten. Much as the house shaped pancake I thought he'd enjoy last week (only to hear a request for 3 "regular" pancakes so he could save the house...) he will hold on to something creative.... until it molds. So, after ages baking, we split one train car, he ate a few sweet bites, said he'd like some cheese and watermelon please and that was that. Maybe I'll just freeze the rest for his birthday...
