How do you make a celebratory cake for someone who despises sweets?
This question plagues me each year as Paris's birthday approaches.
Mom has had a few clever ideas:
1. Our wedding cake had a tier made from a sourdough bread filled with Spinach dip and frosted with Whipped cream cheese.
2. Shortly after we were married she got a hot, rotisserie chicken. 23 candles in a hot chicken? It wasn't pretty, but it was thoughtful!
This year I finally figured it out.We made 32 Pao de Queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) balls.
They made a cute "cake" and offered the boys and I a thrill as we defied the laws of physics.
Best of all, Paris loved it. Happy birthday, sweetie. (Pun intended.)
