Soo as mentioned in my last post I have never made a cake, let alone layer, fill, and frost. My boyfriends dad really wanted me to bake him a cake for his birthday and all he said was he wanted banana flavor. I was feeling very ambitious and decided to add a filling and customize this banana cake so here are the layers I came up with:
-banana bread
-homemade salted caramel
-homemade caramelized pecans
-homemade vanilla cream cheese frosting
😭 I was soooo nervous to assemble and frost but I made the banana cake in advance and froze it so it would be easier to crumb coat and decorate! I also made the salted caramel and caramelized pecans a day before so I wouldn’t stress about it the day of. Anyways here are the process pics and final results 😭 I’m so proud of my first cake

    Oh you should be proud. The cake looks amazing, the flavours go very well with each other, and the overall execution is *chef’s kiss* 🀌

    But the thing to be most proud of is the thought you put behind it, and how you pulled through, especially since this was your first ever cake. You might be a natural! Excellent job!
