Re: Nominations for best birthday cake?

[Guest guest]

Hi Angie.

I recommend the banana cake in BTVC, page 129. Its easy on digestion and easy

to make, but note that it makes one 9 " layer, so if you want a double layer

cake, make 2. And cover the baking cake with a foil cutout so it doesn't

overbrown.

I like the honey frosting in BTVC page 136. But don't make it more than maybe

2 hours before eating the cake, because even though it SAYS it remains

spreadable for hours, it really doesn't, and depending on how humid it is, it

can break down/melt. It is a nice marshmallowy textured frosting.

Would you consider birthday cupcakes instead of a big cake? They are so easy

for the little ones to handle. I made them for Clay's birthday and have this

fancy cupcake display stand so it looked so cool.

Since we don't do dairy yet, I haven't tried other frostings yet.

Best wishes.

Tracey, Clay's mom

What nuts are an option?

Can you use eggs?

Eggs definitely.

We've used pecan, hazelnut, and walnut flours.
