Happy Birthday Heather! Ok, so it’s a week late . . . who’s counting? Well, maybe Heather is. Last Tuesday my oldest born turned 25. Yes, I started really, really young. In fact, before too long she’ll be the same age as me. 🙂 Heather is my perfect child according to her little brother. While we all know our kids aren’t perfect, both of mine are good kids – maybe not so much kids anymore though.
Like I said earlier, Heather’s birthday was last week. We celebrated a day earlier because of work schedules and such. If you don’t have two (or 3, in my case) adult children to schedule events around you just haven’t lived yet! Heather’s pretty easy when it comes to her birthday cakes. She leaves it up to me because she knows I love to experiment on her. This year I baked her a Kahlua cake with a white chocolate-coffee filling. It was a new recipe that I found with great reviews. Turns out everyone was right. It was fabulous.
The ruffles are made from vanilla fondant. Each row was individually applied to the side. The top and fantasy flower are made from chocolate fondant.
Keepin’ it Sweet!

If you like coffee, this is the cake for you!
