In the chaotic kitchen of a recipe developer, you get a food blog called FoodMayhem.
I'm Jessica, an Asian-American, born and raised in NYC, and that's Lon, my Jewish, white husband. While professionally trained as a French culinary- and pastry chef, many of FoodMayhem recipes are my attempt to preserve and share authentic Chinese and Taiwanese recipes learned from my mom. We don't eat Chinese food every day, so you'll get a little bit of anything we find delicious enough to share: from our Eastern European side; recipes and techniques learned from my restaurant days; restaurant reviews, food travel tips; and a few other juicy bits along the way. Welcome to FoodMayhem!
For Sabrina’s birthday, the Dora cake was the main birthday cake, but I’m not a fan of how fondant tastes, so I also prepared cupcakes. It turns out, all the kids happily ate the Dora cake. Shows how much I know about kids, but I’m still glad we had these Lemon-Lime Cupcakes for the adults. It’s a lemon cake with lime curd cream cheese frosting, light and summery, perfect for the great weather we had today (finally!)
