But then I took a look the directions again and it didn't say they should beat back to firm peaks. So I perservered and all was well!Bungalow Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10944360825235091121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-48003035485112572082009-11-21T17:37:15.704-08:002009-11-21T17:37:15.704-08:00Thanks for the recap!

It's best when the cake is cooled off and it works pretty well. The "cutter" is almost like a dental floss material and you have to slowly "saw" your way thru the cake. You can purchase them at AC Moore or Michaels (using a 40-50% off coupon) so it's pretty cheap for the small one. The larger one is a bit pricier. http://www.wilton.com/store/site/product.cfm?id=3E30D67E-475A-BAC0-5792C543763E855Erudie2shoeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09300158129553158098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-90180054213728938512009-11-19T00:05:22.404-08:002009-11-19T00:05:22.404-08:00It was extremely interesting for me to read the bl...It was extremely interesting for me to read the blog.

The texture was smooth, creamy, and not as firm as a NY style cheesecake.

You did a really good job summarizing my baking adventure so far (you really are an amazing writer, I'm always so happy reading your write up). Speaking of raisin pecan bread, I'm currently baking it! About the fruitcake, the recipe also calls for candied cherries. I don't have the specified pan for the recipe, I wonder if I can use bundt or something else?Jennhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11717898669803221775noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8882070718279731833.post-17043918186943297022009-11-18T18:51:58.884-08:002009-11-18T18:51:58.884-08:00I look forward to seeing everyone's baking pro...I look forward to seeing everyone's baking projects on Monday and then Last Cake-Next Cake for a recap and heads up.
