like a lot of other people, i was really excited and quickly disappointed by "babycakes" cookbook. great photos, crazy celebrity endorsement, fantastic-sounding recipes... which just don't work. maybe they work only if you have a $700 kitchenaid? or pamela anderson in the kitchen?
apologies for the snark. the point is that i (and a million others) with considerable baking experience have not been able to make these recipes (fully of expensive specialty ingredients) work.
anyway. the gingerbread was ok; turned out very wet (still liquid after +10 minutes on cooking time +extra 30 minutes), and needed to be baked in a dry frying pan or sandwich press prior to serving. serve with butter and honey.
don't get me started on the frosting. #^&$?%!!!!!!!!!
*end grumps*
