That cake sounds tasty, but I'd rather have Trixie for dessert.

Very nice story! :pinkiehappy: I enjoyed it alot! I'm just like trixie. I love peanut butter :twilightsmile:

Slice Of Life at its finest, and oddly in-character, too, despite the premise. Kudos!

EDIT: And right after posting this, I realize it's by the same author as "Sonata grabs Twilight's Peaches"

A literal slice of life! :pinkiehappy:

A literal 'Slice of Life,' Trixie is pleased with how you portrayed her and the delicious cake. :pinkiehappy:

Huh. Based on all the down votes, I guess negative criticism isn't welcomed around these comments.

5209030 Psst, it was the whole "FIrst" thing...which, BTW, is a violation of site rules, even if you were "just kidding".

On the story itself...

It's...pretty much just there. It's not bad, it's not great, it just is what it is.

Its a Reeces Peanut Butter Cake! :rainbowkiss:

5210016 You never SEE the mods enforcing rules. That doesn't mean they aren't being enforced. Trust me, they're punishing first-posters.

Okay, I can get why my first post got down-voted, by why my review of it?

5210048 Nobody said you are getting punished for it except you...ARE you? In any case, it IS written, it's just not written in a clear place. The mods also occasionally remind us all about first-posting. So...just don't do it, okay?

Also, apologies to this story's author for monopolizing the comments section of your story with this. :twilightsheepish:

Great! Now I'm hungry. At least I get cake tomorrow for my birthday. :pinkiesmile:

Got me hungry... Hungry at 4:15 am, not a good thing when you should sleep...

I don't think you're alone there.

Thanks!

I have many talents.

Did you? Was it good?

Trixie really likes her cake, huh?

Now you've made ME hungry, Trixie. :rainbowlaugh:

The story was kind of blah, but I made the cake and it was awesome.

:trixieshiftleft: :Seriously?

Okay it really was a nice slice-of-cake story starring Trixie. I would not have imagined that a simple cake story could have so much detail.

And yes, I totes made that cake for real. Only I didn't have any fresh mint so I used fresh cut peanut butter cups instead.

If a moan is unladylike, does that mean it sounded like a man?:trixieshiftleft:

Peanut-butter chocolate cake. What's not to love? It's like a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup, but it's a cake.

If I had any confidence in my baking skills, I'd make it myself.

5224894
You've made my day. :pinkiehappy:

I can only hope that the cake was as good as I described it.

It was delicious. Like a tiny slice of peanut-buttery heaven. It was so rich though, I can't imagine eating the whole cake at one sitting.

:trixieshiftright: :The advantages of a teenager's metabolism I guess.

You should really work up your culinary courage and make this cake. Your taste buds will thank you.

You should really work up your culinary courage and make this cake. Your taste buds will thank you.

I am discouraged by the fact I once started a fire by boiling water (no, I am not making that up). But it does sound lovely, and I suppose there are worse things to take away from MLP fanfiction than an awesome cake.

Now this was a delightful read; no drama, no violence. Just a relaxing venture with our favorite Canterlot High student.
On a side note, I am so gonna make that cake! Well done! Keep up the amazing work and stay awesome, mate!

I've had two people tell me they've made the cake so far, and they both liked it. It's pretty much the cake version of a Reese's Peanut Butter Cup.

There should be more food fics!

This was somewhat inspired by a fic in which Rainbow Dash tried to bake something, and the story included a recipe at the end. I can't remember what it was called, though. There was also an Iron Chef story starring Pinkie Pie I read years ago, but unfortunately I can't remember and other details on that one, either.

Baking is the tastiest of all sciences.:twilightsmile:

It was the flavor dreams are made of. If perfection were a cake, it would have been this cake. Trixie let out a very unladylike moan, and forced herself to eat it slowly, savoring every bite.

Food porn?

I mean, what do we have here, EqG Trixie bakes a cake... and takes a shower because reasons.

Food porn. Also, when Rinnaul reviewed the story, he gave the cake a very high rating. No less than three people have baked this very cake.

Trixie shares my beliefs about frosting. :B This is very important to me.

Frosting is wonderful.

In her mind, cooking show judges were giving her praise for her magnificent cake...

...and washing it off in water that was no longer hot.

For these lines, and these lines alone, you get a thumbs-up.

After initially reading this short story several years ago (7/28/2017), I returned to it about three weeks ago (12/20/19) whilst reviewing the literature that appealed to me most on FiMfiction. Since then, I thought several times about how you transformed the ordinary activity of baking a cake into an entertaining excerpt from the amusing adventures of the Great & Powerful Trixie, until your writing inspired me: last Friday, I decided to follow the recipe & bake a peanut-butter cake today (without chocolate).

Below, I enclosed pictures of the result:

Naked cake cooling, before I sawed it in half & conjoined its two severed halves together with frosting:

I also sent your story to my brother, & he enjoyed it as well (though he never watched a full episode of MLP:FiM before yesterday); we recommend literature to one another, periodically. He mentioned that the following line proved especially well-written, exemplifying Trixie's melodramatic personality:

"...she tugged her boots off, letting out a contented sigh as her feet were finally free to breathe again. She wiggled her toes victoriously."

Woo hoo! Appealing literature!

Since then, I thought several times about how you transformed the ordinary activity of baking a cake into an entertaining excerpt from the amusing adventures of the Great & Powerful Trixie,

Heh, that’s what I go for with Slice of Life--make an ordinary thing interesting.

until your writing inspired me: last Friday, I decided to follow the recipe & bake a peanut-butter cake today (without chocolate).

Huzzah! The story continues to inspire cake-making!

Below, I enclosed pictures of the result:

Ooh, looks tasty.

That’s awesome! I know a lot of people kind of like to keep reading MLP on the down-low especially with their families, but by golly there’s a lot of good stuff here on FimFic. Right as I was getting started writing, I found a couple of stories I thought my parents would like and printed them out and gave them to them, so they’ve been supportive about my writing, which is really nice. Although sometimes they wish I’d write something more commercially viable :rainbowlaugh:

Heh, it really does, doesn’t it? She’s such a drama horse.

a capful of vanilla extract

...My brain read that as 'cupful' at first, and I just about had a stroke! :facehoof:

That cake sounds hella delicious though, maybe I should bake one sometime. :pinkiehappy:

No, don’t do a cupful, that’s way too much!

Couple of readers did, Maybe I should bake one sometime. . .
