30th Birthday Cake - Dining and Cooking

Just a quick note:

I have not finished decorating yet.
I still need to add caramel shards to the top and some candied pecans maybe.

However, the cake is baked, filled and frosted. In the fridge for my birthday tomorrow.

Cake Layers: Brown Sugar-Brown Butter Sponge
Filling: Caramel Pastry Cream
Frosting: Pecan Pralinée-Brown Butter SMBC

I swirled some of the Pecan Pralinée Paste on the top of the cake for color dimension.

I wanted a rustic approach and I frosted this at 11pm at night after the longest day ahahah so I like the way it turned out.

Will post some photos in the comments tomorrow when I’ve added the final elements – if I decide to add them 😂😂😂

I’m very happy to now be apart of the 30 club! An age I’ve wanted to be since I was about 12!
