Guest Date: Kristen Tebo Goes Skydiving & Bakes Fruit Cakes

Sometimes the date with yourself, becomes your hobby. 

"When I decompress, I choose like, the hardest projects to just deep dive in."
 
This week, someone else shares their date—i.e. what she likes to do when she has time to herself. Listen in on Kristen's adventure in "stress baking" as well as how she got into skydiving and what lights her up about the sport.

From Kristen, Re: aged fruitcake. Here is a blog from a hobby baker that had a similar journey to mine with one big difference: I always knew I’d be making my own marzipan (way cheaper and more tasty than store bought) and instead of royal icing, I made a marshmallow based fondant (also way cheaper and more tasty than store bought).

Marshmallow Fondant (life changing) recipe
 
Note: For someone that wants to make little elegant finger treats, the marzipan/fondant layer can be rolled out and cut with cookie cutters (simple shapes) and drizzled or covered in any kind of chocolate. You’ll have guest DEMANDING the profession bakery source! ;)
