Welcome to AiBakeCake!
I’m Aileen, and I love to bake cake. Obvious, right? I’ve wanted to start a baking blog for the longest time, but I didn’t want to start it until I thought of a good name. This is it. My humble blog of my baking adventures.
Cake isn’t the only thing I like to bake, but it is something I enjoy a little too much. Cupcakes are amazing, in all flavors and frostings. All deserts are free game, and I’m always looking for a challenging recipe, unique flavors, and huge projects to tackle.
I live in the Bay Area in Northern California, and all my baking successes and failures take place in a tiny apartment kitchen during my free time. I do have a full-time job, so most of my baking is either done at night, or on the weekends, after I’ve slept in without setting an alarm clock. So if you’re wondering why some of my amateur pictures have a yellowish hue to it, it’s the cheap apartment lighting. I’m still working on nailing the photography thing down.
Feel free to leave comments, suggestions, advice, and encouragement. Share your experiences too! I can also be reached at ilean811[at]yahoo.com.
Let the baking times roll.

Thank you, Ai, for your beautiful carrot cupcake post. We can cook and we can bake, but we’re not so great at the garnish/decorate thing. Thanks for making our site so beautiful and springy this week!
