In honor of my dad's birthday today and my mom's birthday on Wednesday, I've made a cake. Happy birthday mom and dad!
I've decided I'm going to try a new recipe at least once a week. I'm not so great in the kitchen, but I'd really like to get better. And with
Pinterest and so many amazing food blogs out there, I have a long list of things I'd like make.
I found this cake recipe on
Bake at 350. Apparently, she got the recipe out of the book
Cake Ladies and then tweaked it slightly.
It's more of a spice cake than a birthday cake and upon tasting it, I decided it's an English "high tea" kind of dessert. So, if you're having a tea party or watching Downton Abbey in the middle of the afternoon, this would go well with it.

I love the FLOWERS!!! It looks gorgeous!
The flowers are definitely the highlight of the cake! Is it edible or fresh flowers? Regardless, it still look gorgeous and just the right toppings on the cake. And you mentioning it's kind of English "high tea" kind of dessert makes it appealing and pretty interesting. I might try it out someday.
Thanks Bridget!!!
Hi Mia, the flowers are fresh and definitely not edible, but I agree they make a great topping anyway!
Visually, it looks very gorgeous, I like its simplicity. And you mentioned that the flowers are real? How nice. If I were to get married, I want a simple affair and I'd probably want a cake as simple and beautiful as this one too.
