Mrs. B-H, That cake is absolutely gorgeous. What did you use for icing? Is it Buttercream? Could I have the recipe? I really want to start and bake decorative cakes. Thank you. Love, Rosie
Thank you, Rosie! I was asked for my business card... and it is tempting knowing how much these go for! I will be glad to teach you what I have learned so far... and with your family's traditions in baking, I have no doubt you'd have a very successful business in no time! Anyway, the frosting was cream cheese: proportions are 1 pkg of cream cheese to 2 Tbsp butter, juice of half of one lemon and powder sugar until desired consistency. Delicious!
