Cakebites Extravaganza & Eid Mubarik
Rose- Pistacie cakebites / Rose - Pistacio cakebites
I Fredags fejrede vi Eid-ul-Adha ( muslimsk helligdag, der marker afslutning på pilgrims rejsen ) hos min forældre. Min mor sørger for de traditionelle pakistanske desserter og jeg laver cupcakes eller en kage. I sted for at lave en hel kage, synes jeg at var bedre at lave kage i " mundbidder". Man kan lave cakebites af den kage man har lyst til. Jeg brugte en af min yndling cupcake opskrift : Rose- Pistacie cupcakes opskrift.. Jeg smuldret kagen og blandede frosting i, lige som til cake pops. Af kagemassen lave jeg små kage bolde. Til sidst overtrak dem med hvid chokolade og pyntede med tørrede rosen blade og spiselig guld blad. Opskrift følger nedunder.
English: On friday we celebrated Eid-ul- Adha ( muslim holliday) at my parents. My mother makes the tradionell dessert and I always make cupcakes or a cake. This time instead of making a whole cake I made bite size cakes. You can make these cakebites in any cake type you like. I used one of my favorit cupcake recipe : Rose- Pistacie cupcakes recipe. I crushed the cake , mixed it with frosting, just like cake pops. From the cake mixture I formed bite size balls AKA cakebites. Then I covered them in white chocolate and decorated with dreid rose petals and gold leaf. Scroll down for recipe in english. Black colour text.

Smelt chokolade på vandbad eller efter anvisninger. Jeg brugte en grill pind til at dybe cakebite i chokoladen i. Eller brug en spise ske til at dybe en cakebite ad gangen i den smeltet chokolade.
Melt the chocolate and dip the cakebites one at a time in the chocolate in order to cover them in chocolate. I used a wood skrewer to dip the cake bites or you can also use a tablespoon to dip the cake bites in chocolate.
Stil cakebite på bagepapir og drys med knuste rosen blade. Hvis I bruger en grillspyd til dybbe, vil der komme en lille hul på toppen. Fyld hullet med den chokolade. Drys med spiselig glimmer eller spiseguld blade.
Place the cakebites on baking papper and sprinkle with the crushed rose petals. I f you are useing wooden skrewer for the dipping, there wil be a hole on the top. Just fill the hole with little of the melted chocolate. Apply with gold leaf pieces or sprinkle with edible gold dust.

These look beautiful! Found your blog through Groovin' Moms on FB. I can't wait to follow - My dad was Danish and there were many traditional items he loved that we could never make for him. It's too late now, but I can still try them!
