A couple of weeks ago a friend asked for a small, simple buttercream cake for her birthday. She just wanted vanilla cake with vanilla icing with 'Happy Birthday to ME' or some such written on it. It sounded like an easy request, so I happily agreed. A few days later she sent me an email saying she had tasted the Gucci cake and liked the coconut icing. She was up for a little flavour in her cake - anything but chocolate (weird!), so I suggested my new favourite: Lime. I decided to get just a bit funky by adding some gum paste accents and a sparkler (not shown here).
