Something Gone Right and Wrong

April 16, 2026

Sometime during my preteen years, I made a yellow cake with chocolate icing.

I tripled the recipe and poured the batter into three pans 9 in. in diameter.

The layers came out good in texture in taste. But they turned out bigger in height.

Once the cake was frosted, it looked like something out of a cartoon. But it tasted

delicious on the first bite.

The next time I made a cake with a tripled recipe, I would used pans 16 in. in diameter.
