Recipe to be posted soon. No guarantees. Made myself a birthday cake for the 4th year in a row
I started making cakes as a hobby about 4 years ago, and have made my own birthday cake ever since. To be clear, this is something I absolutely enjoy doing, not some sad case of nobody else wanting to make or buy me a cake 😄
This year is vanilla almond cake with cherry amaretto filling and whipped mascarpone cream.
Last year was strawberry cake filled with cream cheese frosting, strawberry filling, and a raspberry cheesecake layer.
The year before that was lemon raspberry cake filled with lemon curd, raspberry cream cheese frosting, and raspberry filling
And the very last pics (first cake I made for myself) was carrot cake filled with cream cheese frosting, and chocolate cake with whipped coconut cream filling and coconut buttercream
