I made another cake for my class this week.
This time it was a butter pecan cake, with chopped walnuts in it (didn't have pecans), with a Mocha (chocolate and coffee) swiss meringue buttercream icing. I"m looking forward to sampling it today!! In class tonight we had to decorate using clowns. I think they detract from the cake though :(.
The icing is SOO good. I tasted the remnants after icing the cake. And at class tonight... everyone could smell the tastiness, and many were tempted to stick a finger in.
Today I'm hosting friday coffee play group. So they'll be the lucky people to get tastes of it. We've kinda outgrown the coffee shop, so we're starting to do it at people's homes.

Looks and smells delicious! That cake looks like it is balancing precariously on the edge of the counter. Watch out! Mom
The cake was a little bit of a disappointment. I don't think I'd use that recipe again. THe icing was delicious... but once in the fridge for a couple nights, it wasn't as tasty as it was fresh. Lesson learned! :) Ice the cake a few hours before serving!!
mmmmm....that looks yummy! i want to take a cake class too!!! looks like you learning quite a bit!
