Welcome to Week 30! This week, we're going for the gold with an Olympic-themed bake. Let the spirit of the Olympics inspire you! You can create something that embodies the essence of the games, like Olympic ring cookies, medal cupcakes, or even a cake decorated with the colors of the Olympic rings. Alternatively, bake a treat from the country you're rooting for—explore traditional desserts from around the world and bring a bit of international flavor to your kitchen.
You can also take inspiration from the original Olympic games and go to Ancient Greece, like a Grecian Temple Cake, or Olive Oil Breadsticks
Whether you’re baking the teams you are rooting for does well or not as well, we hope you enjoy this Olympic week; we can’t wait to see your creations!
If you are feeling lost, here are some ideas to get you started:
Olympic Torch Cupcakes - Cupcakes with orange and yellow frosting swirled to look like flames, set in an ice cream cone.
Flag Tart - A ganache tart decorated with the flag of the country you’re rooting for, using colored frosting or fruit.
Olympic Ring Donuts - Decorate round donuts with icing in the colors of the Olympic rings.
Medal Cookies - Bake cookies and top them with gold, silver, and bronze frosting and edible decorations.
Happy baking!
