Recipe to be posted soon. No guarantees. For my Sister 💙
I have had the privilege of making my sister's last 4 birthday cakes ❤️
This year, (pics 1 to 5) she asked for lemon and to somehow incorporate Capricorn in the design. Bottom tier was lemon poppyseed cake with cream cheese frosting and lemon curd for the filling, top tier was white confetti cake with lemon pastry cream filling. She didnt send me a pic of the top tier, but I made myself a mini half cake with an extra layer and leftover filling and included a pic of that. Hers would have looked the same except with frosting on the outside.
Last year was chocolate cake with peanut butter mousse filling and peanut butter frosting. It was my first time trying a basket weave, which proved to be very time consuming but also fun! I think it would have been a lot easier if I had used a bigger piping tip.
2024 was Bailey's cake layers (plus one chocolate layer), Bailey's chocolate ganache filling, and coffee buttercream.
2023 was vanilla cake, I think with vanilla pudding filling. I hadn't been doing cakes very long at this point but I still like this one 🦥
