Funfetti Angel Food Cake

August 10, 2013 By Jennifer @ PB and P Design 26 Comments

Hello, hello!!

Remember yesterday when I said today is a special day?  Well today is my birthday.  I would tell you my age but it’s only a number, it’s really how you feel and act and I can tell you I certainly don’t act my age.  To celebrate today, I made myself a birthday cake.  I know it sounds kind of weird, baking yourself a birthday cake, but that’s how things roll in my house.  Besides I like baking, especially when it comes out perfect!!!  And this birthday cake is perfect in my eyes, after all it has sprinkles in it and how can anything be bad with sprinkles??

Funfetti Angel Foodcake
Yummy!  I love Angel Food Cake!  I have to say it is probably my favorite cake of all time!  Even as a kid I used to ask for either marble cake with chocolate frosting or angel food cake for my birthday.  There is something wonderful about the light, fluffy cake.  I swear if you allowed me to, I could so eat a whole cake in a day.  Now I have never done that, but I could, if I allowed myself too!
Funfetti Angel Foodcake
But what I love about today’s angel food cake is that it has sprinkles.  I thought I would try adding them in, right at the end of mixing the batter and to my surprise the sprinkles spread out beautifully throughout the cake.  It gives a little spunk to the cake and makes it all colorful and fun.  After all it’s birthday time and it’s all about having fun.  Hmmm, speaking of fun, I wonder what Hubby has planned for me today?  My guess is he will take me to Home Depot to buy me a stove.  Isn’t that romantic?  He is one of those guys that buys practical gifts and takes you with him to buy it.  Even for Christmas I got a refrigerator.  With Christmas in a few months, the last appliance we will need is a matching dishwasher.  I better buy that myself, I don’t want a dishwasher for Christmas unless it comes with someone who actually does the dishes!!!

The cake in general is pretty easy to make and only takes a few ingredients.  The two key things is whip the cake to make a nice stiff meringue and when you fold in the cake flour, don’t over mix it.  I know it’s hard, but don’t do it, the longer you mix it, a more dense of a cake you will get.  You want a nice fluffy light cake.  Your probably wondering why I didn’t add frosting to the cake, and to be honest, I am not a frosting person.  Typical angel food cakes have a powdered sugar glaze over the top, but I don’t care for that kind of frosting.  I like my angel food cakes plain.  That way I can add fruit and whip cream to it or just cut off a piece and eat it plain, which is what I have been doing with this cake.

A light, fluffy vanilla flavored sponge cake filled with colorful sprinkles.
Serves: 10 slices
Ingredients
  • 1 cup cake flour
  • 1 cup powdered sugar, divided
  • 1½ cups egg whites (about 10 eggs)
  • 1¼ tsp. cream of tartar
  • 1 tsp. vanilla extract
  • ¼ tsp. kosher salt
  • ⅓ cup sprinkles / Jimmies
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees and position oven rack just below center,
  2. Have one large two peice tube pan (angel food cake pan) ready
  3. In a bowl, sift cake flour and ½ cup powdered sugar; set aside.
  4. In a large bowl, beat egg whites until foamy, about 1 minute. Beat in cream of tartar, vanilla and salt, on medium-low speed until soft peaks form. Increase speed to medium. Gradually beat in remaining ½ cup of powdered sugar. Increase speed to medium-high, and beat until firm peaks hold when beaters are lifted; about 5 minutes.
  5. In batches, with a spatula, carefully fold in flour mixture over batter, do not over mix. Fold in sprinkles.
  6. Pour batter into prepared angel food cake pan and spread the batter to make the top even.
  7. Bake cake 30 to 32 minutes, or until puffed and lightly browned, and test the cake with wooden skewer by inserting it near center of the cake. If it comes out clean the cake is done. Insert narrow-neck bottle into center tube, and invert pan to cool cake upside down.
  8. When cake is completely cooled, remove from bottle and carefully cut around the sides of the pan to loosen the cake. Lift out pan’s center tube with cake. Cut under cake and around center tube to release cake.
  9. Top with a dollop of whip cream and sprinkles, if desired.

Ingredients:
1/2 cup non-fat milk, or your favorite kind
1 cup greek yogurt plain or vanilla
1 tsp. butter extract
2 tsp. vanilla extract (omit if using vanilla flavored yogurt)
2 pkt. stevia (to taste)
1 cup ice

Directions: Place all ingredients in a blender and process until combined and smooth.

Note: Start off with 1/2 teaspoon of the butter extract and work your way up from there. Depending on the yogurt you use, the extract can be very strong. Also, if you use vanilla yogurt, do not use the vanilla extract.

Birthday Cake Smoothie

Wow, I made a lot of things with sprinkles.  How can you blame me?  For some reason these little jimmies are so much fun.

In case you may have not noticed, I included the recipe to my Birthday Cake Smoothie, since so many asked me to post it again.

Time for me to get going.  Have a great Saturday.  I’ll let you know how my big day went!  🙂

Toodles,

Jennifer

Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little o Happy Wednesday. I am sharing with you my little outdoor space with our lounge chairs. Truthfully I wanted to get rid of the lounge chairs as they take up so much room and we never lay on the chaises. However, over the winter my husband made new cushions for the them and I didn’t have the heart to get rid of them. He made the cushions for our dog Samantha who passed away this winter. She loved laying on the lounge chairs. The boys don’t like to sit on them, unless you are on them too. 
☀️
I do like the color combination of this space. It’s relaxing and I just love the Gerbera flowers. I wish I could keep the pillows on them, but my little Sully 🐶loves to tear apart pillows. So the pillows are living in my living room. I’ll bring them back outside if we have guests. 
☀️
Have a wonderful day!

Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy Hello, hello! Long time no see. Life has been busy the past month or so, and I haven’t really had much to share with you, but this week I am on vacation so hopefully I can get some content to share. 
💙
I am sharing with you one last look of my blues in my living room, as I plan on adding some yellow. I’d like to say with the warmer weather it’s time for Summer decor, but it has been unseasonably cool here. We are still in the 70’s and windy. Great for the plants, but not me. I need some 80’s. This is just wacky weather!
💙
What’s the weather where you live?

My patio area is kind  of an awkward space because we used to have a large pool that we took out a few years ago. We built our space around the pool. So we have lots of odd corners, but it works for us. I really like my backyard.

I went with light cool colors for my backyard space because of the heat and sun. I have always loved the coastal look. I do love to add a pop of color with flowers. Give me all the flowers! 

I hope you check out everyone’s outdoor space. I love this time of year and I can always use more outdoor inspiration.

Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreat Happy Wednesday! My friend Kelly @farmtotablecreations made a gorgeous DIY Tabletop Firepit and I had to run out and got all the pieces to make one of my own. Kelly’s is so gorgeous and fun. Perfect for evenings outside.
🩵
However, when I started to make mine I realized that my dogs are to interested in it, as you can see from the video. I was afraid they would try to get close to the fire and burn themselves. So I came up with another idea, where I could get the same effect without the fire.
🩵
A couple weeks ago my friend Claire @huntersridge_designs shared some solar candles that I thought were pretty, and would be great to use on my table. I’m a sucker for anything solar. 😂 So of course I ordered some. I decided to use the solar candles in my pot in place of the tiki fire. I think it turned out great. I just need to add a few more rocks to it, which I’ll get this weekend.
🩵
Be sure to check out Kelly @farmtotablecreations to see her firepit and also check out how Claire @huntersridge_designs styled her solar candles. Both of there accounts are inspiring.
🩵
Have a wonderful day!!

Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working Happy Wednesday! I have spent so much time working outside that I have not worked on decorating my dining room for Mother’s Day or Spring. It’s a bare slate as of right now. So I thought I would share with you last years tablescape that I did for Mother’s Day.
💗
This Mother’s Day,(Saturday) little Jenny is taking me to the @gratoncasino to get a pedicure and possibly lounge at the pool, if it is warm enough outside. Then we will go for a nice lunch. I can’t wait. Sunday, I’ll spend Mother’s Day with the boys. 🐶🐶
💗
Hope you have a fabulous day!!

Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend Happy Monday! I’ve had a semi-productive weekend in between the rain and cold. It was pretty chilly to me. I did get some plants planted and my husband added a new drip line in my big garden. Hopefully my flowers will thrive better this year. 
🌷
On Friday, I watched 3 episodes of Firefly Lane on Netflix. If you like girl type series, I highly recommend. It’s so well written. It’s about best friends growing older together. Unfortunately this is the last of the series. I’ll miss it. I also read that Yellowstone will come back in November and that will be the end of the series. I’ll miss that show. At least I have Virgin River to look forward too. My husband likes Virgin River too.
🌷
Anyway, here is a view of my clean kitchen. I put together this little vignette for Mother’s Day inspiration. I love the Italian Soda from Trader Joe’s, but boy does it give me bad heartburn. I always just drink a little. Actually, anything sparkling, except regular soda, gives me heartburn. So strange. 
🌷
Have a great week!

Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturd Happy Saturday! Wow I haven’t shared on a Saturday in forever. Today we are getting rain again. Last week it was 90 and sunny and now back to the 60’s, but we are going to hit 90 by next weekend. I can’t wait. I’m over this wacky weather we are having. 
💙
I took down my Easter decor a few weeks ago and went back to using blues and greens in the living room. I think the colors look fresh and clean. Once the weather gets nicer, I’ll start to add in some yellows. I love yellow for the summer.
💙
Next weekend is Mother’s Day. Do you have any plans for the holiday?
💙
Have a wonderful weekend!

Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you Happy Wednesday! I am so excited to share with you how I styled @myclaireburke pieces that I received. Let me tell you I love Claire Burke. I have been using there products for more than 25 years.
💗
In my 20’s, I used to go to Macy’s with my mom and in the bedding department they had a section of Claire Burke. I always bought there Original Scent potpourri. It smells like spring flowers with roses and lavender and it’s also beautiful to look at.
💗
If you are looking for a Mother’s Day gift, I highly recommend. I love the Original scent, if you like a floral scent. If you are more for fresh clean scent, the Sea Salt and Grapefruit is amazing. If you like fresh linen I recommend Wild Cotton. I promise they won’t disappoint. Oh and the Electric Fragrance Warmer is also Claire Burke. Works fabulous! 
💗
My Claire Burke ships fast too! They were kind enough to give my followers a 20% discount code: PBANDP.
💗
Have a beautiful day!!

Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to g Happy Monday! This weekend I was finally able to get outside and work on my patio space, but unfortunately I don’t think I’ll be able to enjoy it this week. We are back to winter temps, high winds and rain. They are calling it “May Gray”. Such weird weather this year. 
🌼
I was able to put out my new rug that you all helped me to pick out. I just love the blue. I decided to go with blues and yellows for my outdoor space. I think the yellow brightens up the space. I just need to get more flowers because after all you can never have too many flowers. 
🌼
I wanted to also share with you my new side table from @vicllax_outdoor. I love the white color. It really helps to brighten this space. The table is made of metal, comes in 4 colors and is easy to put together. This table is perfect for a small space too. I couldn’t be happier. 
🌼
Have you setup your patio space yet?

Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather Happy Tuesday! This weekend we had amazing weather. Sunny, light breeze and in the 70’s. I did a lot of yard clean-up. I just need some dirt and my raised beds will be ready for planting.
🌼
I planned on working on the patio area, but time just went to fast. My husband repaired the trellis that fell over from the wind. We had the Morning Glory on it, but we got rid of it because it is highly toxic to dogs. I ordered a climbing rose from Heirloom Roses that will be delivered next week. 
🌼
I’m sharing with you the Beverage Tub that I bought from Target that I am using as a planter. My husband drilled 1/4” holes 4” apart on the metal insert.  I added a pot to the tub to give the flowers a lift. The handles on the tub are not bendable and I didn’t want to break the flowers and I wanted it to be easier to lift the flowers out, if I decide to change the flowers.
🌼
I love the look! Once I work on the patio area, I’ll move the table and flowers to the patio area. So excited to be working outside. Have a beautiful day!
