Greetings to all Zevist brothers and sisters.

Due to personal reasons, I haven't been able to visit here very often, but today is Ostara. And I want to share two cake recipes for Ostara. Unfortunately, I'm sharing these two cake recipes very late. Please forgive me. I'm sharing these cake recipes hoping you'll enjoy them with your families at a tea party after a lovely dinner. Happy Ostara to all of us. May Lady Aphrodite's blessings be upon us all.

Happy Holidays.

4โ€“5 tablespoons rose jam
(Optional) 1 teaspoon lemon zest

๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ Instructions:

2 tablespoons water
1 teaspoon lemon juice

Instructions:

โœจ Serving Suggestion:

2) Garnish with edible rose petals for an elegant touch ๐ŸŒน

๐Ÿ”ฅ Tips:
If the rose jam is too thick, dilute it slightly with water
If the cake doesnโ€™t bake evenly, the oven temperature might be too high

- 1 cup fresh orange juice
- 1 tablespoon starch
- 2 tablespoons sugar

Instructions:

- Mix everything while cold.

I love carrot cake. Depending who makes it, it is either amazing or disgusting, not often just average. Carrot and orange cake sounds amazing.
