This is my latest cake for my lovely friend Julia whose birthday is actually today. I still need to work on my lettering, I think I really cannot skip the piping gel for it. I was happy with the little flowers and the Bay leaves. It was so hot that day that I couldn't do the proper smoothing as the cake stayed sticky no matter what. I know that fondant is a good choice on a day like that, but I just couldn't bring myself to use it. One of these days I will try this famous 'Marshmallow' fondant I keep reading about that is supposed to taste good. As per usual, I used the Martha Stewart recipe for Lemon Curd to fill the cake. I think I'd like to try it with limes and then do a coconut cake. um.....breakfast.....
These are some past cakes for a yummy recap:
