People seem sad when I tell them I made my own birthday cake. Having a weekend to bake and have the kitchen to myself is the best part!! The decorations are based off a design I found on ticktock.

Components are:
King Arthur olive oil chiffon (this is the absolute best)
Swiss meringue buttercream
Raspberry curd made out of the yolks left over from the butter cream.
Metric ton on blueberries and blackberries.

    That’s a lot of berries! As long as you liked it, that ‘s all that matters!

    I made my own carrot cake birthday cake. It was a very old recipe my mother used to use. A nice and heavy cake with butter cream icing. I was very happy and it was delicious! I understand completely, and Happy Birthday!

    Berry nice!

    I always make my own birthday cake. I like baking AND my cakes taste the best

    However, I cannot frost in a pretty way. Tasty, yes. Pretty? Not so much.
