What do you need to make these Breakfast Cereal Doughnuts?

Doughnuts can be made in two ways – in the oven or in a fryer. The classic yeast doughnut (the big fluffy glazed one you used to drool over at the doughnut shop as a kid) is fired. This means they are cooked in a vat of super hot oil. The other option is to bake them – just like you would a cake or a cupcake. But you do need a doughnut pan. This gives you that perfect doughnut shape! They come in metal and silicone forms. I always prefer metal ones. This is the one I use and it’s great.

Midnights Era - The final era in this cake roundup. Taylor announced her 10th studio album as “a collection of music written in the middle of the night...exploring old memories and midnights past”. We all have stuff that keeps us up at night. It’s what makes us human. But no matter who we are or where we live or what’s going on in our lives - just outside our windows, the same moon and stars shine over us all. And I think there is something comforting about that. So for this final cake, I went for a start night sky. Let me know what you guys think!

Evermore Era - This album is the sister album to Folklore - aka a lot of time in the woods with a more mature indie folk sound. Becuase I decided to stick with a black and white color palate for the Folklore cake, I knew I wanted to create the moss-covered Piano for my Evermore cake. And even though the moss may or may not look like broccoli from some angles, I am pretty happy with how this cake turned out! Let me know what you guys think!
