So it’s not exactly my birthday today, but if you aren’t already following @drakeoncake on Instagram, then you can consider that my birthday present to you instead. It’s my favorite. thing. ever. In fact, I almost titled this post “the story of a simple Joy The Baker fan-girl and her Drake on Cake inspired birthday cake macarons”, but I had no choice but to shorten it.

My friend Annie introduced me to it several months ago, and then my mind almost exploded once I realized it was created by Joy The Baker. Basically I’m a total stalker with zero shame, but no restraining orders have been filed yet so we’re still good to go for now.

Before the cops turn up, I thought I’d try my hand at a macaron version to make it all a lasting memory. Turns out my usual chicken scratch hand-writing is only made worse when writing on a 1 1/2 inch cookie that crumbles under the slightest pressure, but it was fun nonetheless. It’s always a good time when your brother calls and asks what you’re doing and you get to reply “practicing writing Drake lyrics”.

I also threw in one or two other extra favorite lyrics that just seemed too good to pass up…

Now I know you’re all dying to make these for every occasion, so I’m giving you the super simple how-to but there’s really no way to mess them up, obviously.

All you have to is layer your macarons with a healthy piping of your favorite filling, then write your lyrics, and decorate! So easy you can even make these while you’ve been drankin’. See what I did there?!

Do I have any other Drake and Joy The Baker fangirls out there?! I’m thinking we should start a club, and I’m totally happy to provide the space and decor, just let me know if you’re in.
