The sun has been shining here which makes for a very hot kitchen and not so much baking, but.... I did manage to do one cake this week. This was for my friends at Moms Club for our end of year banquet. After much thought a lemon cake was requested so a lemon cake is what they got in the form of a 10 inch round, 4 layer lemon sponge with lemon buttercream filling. Avocado coloured (not flavoured, although...) buttercream with fondant dots and just a tiny bit of pizzazz on top, because we're worth it!
Don't look too closely at the pic. as this cake was in the wars before it made it to the restaurant, nothing unsanitary of course but a few knocks and dints as I drove along a 55mph limit at 40mph with horns a-tooting and people waving at me with just the one finger, I guess their other fingers were busy with driving? The wires were swinging and one of the balls dropped off and dinged the top! I won't say who put their finger in the side of it whilst moving it either... but it's all about the taste and that got a resounding thumbs up!
