I make my own birthday cake every year but this is my favorite so far


followed The Clove Coterie’s recipe for her nosfuratu inspired cake but had to omit a few ingredients because unfortunately i couldn’t get them in time :/ the base is and almond cake with rose water soak, and a blackberry coulis in between the layers with an earl grey swiss meringue buttercream. certainly the longest i’ve spent on a cake but well worth it!

    I do the same thing! That way I’m always sure to get what I want -lol. Although mine never looks THAT good. Happy Birthday 🎁

    This looks amazing! Isn’t it tiresome to make your own cake though on your birthday?
    Happy birthday btw!

    That sounds amazing! Is it tea leaves in the buttercream? I have an earl gray shortbread recipe that just uses a couple of teabags dumped into the dough.
