You made my mouth water with this acrostic, I could taste the vanilla in these cakes as I remember baking them when I was young and haven't baked any for a very long time, a delicious acrostic Debra, love Dolly x

Diet torpedoed! Just say the word buttercream, and I'm doomed. These sound divine and from all from the hands of your mama!!
Sending you my best today as always,

Debra,

What fun! My girls would adore those cakes! hahaha Too bad their granny is not a baker. Never has been, never will be, far as I can see. Poor little girls. Thanks - btw, I think the acceptable spelling for mother is Mama - (though I still try to do Momma.) I do not think yours would pass a publisher's critical eye. Thanks!

This is very good and has a unique rhyme scheme that just feels right for the light hearted tribute to a mother's expertise in baking. It feels as if this is written from a child memory or point of view. That seems to add a little something.

Fairy Cakes - a fitting description for those cupcakes. Well done on this acrostic, great rhyming and the picture really is tempting. Makes me want to go to the kitchen and make some cupcakes.

An excellent post, lauding your mum, who bakes with flair, she withstands though people dare, and with great care, and hands that care, maintains her length and cook extraordinaire. Brilliantly written Debra, blessings Roy
