I did something different for my birthday, I asked hubby not to buy me a cake but decided to bake it myself. After all, I make cakes for other people, why not myself, besides, I wanted to experiment with piping buttercream roses on a cake and airbrushing. The result for the icing didn't turn out as I wanted but I was really happy about how the 'rainbow' sponge cake turned out when I had it all stacked, iced and then cut. Isn't it colorful? It makes me happy just looking at it.
gorgeous! I made one for my daughter's bday with frosting between each cake layer. Perhaps a bit too much frosting, but oh was it delicious!
ReplyDeleteThanks. I used chocolate ganache so it wasn't too sweet, sort of to offset the frosting. It was quite yummy.
DeleteYummy and colorful! What else can you ask for =) #MySundayPhoto

ReplyDeleteThank you for linking up
Thanks. I thought I'd try to bake myself one for a change.
DeleteThat is awesome! I would love to try one of those cakes.
ReplyDeleteThanks. Its fairly easy to do, just a regular sponge cake but baked in separate pans after I colored the batter. Tedious but worth the effort. :)
DeleteWow, that's amazing. What a great idea #mysundayphoto
ReplyDeleteThanks. I figure I'd make something nice since its I never made a birthday cake for myself before.
Deleteooh I neeed one like that for mine next week!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday :)
Thanks. Its easy to make, just color your batter different colors then bake separately. Tedious but worth it. :D
