tiramisu; but not for valentines!

soooooooooooo its been one week since ive started my new course! its pretty exciting still! stage one we're jus learning basic cutting skills and stuff. not really 'baking' yet =( but ive made alot of new friends which is veryvery fun! everyones from different backgrounds so we're all learning off each other :]

tdy i wanna wish vinna a happy 19th birthday ^________^ ♥ she's my new friend frm school! so i thought why not make her a bday cake!!!! i was contemplating on making the regular tiramisu or strawberry tiramisu. and since i didnt have enough strawberries on me, i decided to jus make the traditional tiramisu cake - but an eggless one!









scared of failure??? NO WORRIES. trust me, this is one of the easiest cakes to make. no baking required ;]
