The only eggs I've ever had until making this video were scrambled eggs and hard boiled eggs. But I saw an interesting link on the News app on my smartphone(http://food-hacks.wonderhowto.com/how-to/upgrade-eggs-instantly-with-milk-beer-other-creative-poaching-liquids-0171313//) I had Birthday Cake Soda on hand so I figured if you can make poached eggs with traditional soda than why not other flavors of soda? I applied a similar logic after I saw this video on YouTube(www.youtube.com/watch?v=eqrEJgQjAK4), about using beer in scrambled eggs and another video on pickling eggs(www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhvGggGnQtg), for this video. My dad doesn't like the idea of the existence of a birthday cake-flavored soda, so he tried none of the 3 egg dishes I made. But he said the video was well-executed. I'll take that. My favorite of the 3 egg recipes was the poached eggs because of the runny yolk that came out, which is perfection for poached eggs. Surprisingly, this was my first time ever making or tasting poached eggs! You might be wondering why I said you could use Old Bay seasoning in lieu of pickling spice- well, it's a substitution, for I couldn't find pickling spice at my local supermarket, so the next best thing was the Old Bay seasoning.

Put the Birthday Cake Soda, white vinegar, granulated sugar, salt, and pickling spice(or Old Bay seasoning) into a large saucepot. Mix all the ingredients together. 2. Bring the pot to a low boil on the stove. Put the flame on medium heat and cover the pot with a lid. 3. Once the water is boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer for 3 minutes. After 3 minutes of simmering, turn the flame off. Uncover the pot and let the pickling liquid cool off at room temperature for 30 minutes. 4. When the pickling liquid has cooled down, put the hard boiled eggs into a narrow, medium bowl or sterilized Mason Jar. Pour the pickling liquid on top of the hard boiled eggs in the bowl or jar. 5. Cover the bowl with aluminum foil or close the lid on the jar. Place the bowl or jar into the fridge for 24 hours to let the eggs pickle. 6. When the eggs are done pickling, put some Birthday Cake Kisses and a slice of party or funfetti cake into the bowl or jar. Mix all the ingredients up. 7. Bon appetit! For the scrambled eggs: 1. Crack open 2 eggs into a small bowl. Add the Birthday Cake Soda and black pepper to the small bowl. Mix all the ingredients up. 2. Pour olive oil into a small or medium frying pan. Spread the oil around the pan. Heat the oil up by turning the stove on. 3. Once the oil is heated up, pour the egg mixture into the frying pan. Stir the mixture up and add Parmesan cheese into the frying pan to help the scrambled eggs bind. Fold the egg mixture in. The eggs might be a bit liquidy when done but they should be fluffy and look like traditional scrambled eggs. If the eggs are too watery for you, add more Parmesan cheese. 4. Put the scrambled eggs onto a large plate. Top with Birthday Cake Kisses and vanilla frosting. Bon appetit! For the poached eggs: 1. Fill a medium saucepot with 36 oz. of Birthday Cake Soda. Bring the pot to a boil on the stove. 2. Crack 2 eggs into 2 separate bowls. Do not whisk the eggs! 3. Once the soda is boiling, reduce the heat to a simmer. Put the eggs into the simmering soda. Let the eggs poach(cook) for 4 1/2 minutes. 4. After 4 1/2 minutes, shut the flame off and retrieve the poached eggs using a slotted spoon. Place each egg onto a slice of party or funfetti cake without the frosting. Top each poached egg with a Birthday Cake Kiss. Bon appetit!
