It works every time. I can feeel your buttercream pain though.

It was a hit at the potluck picnic.<br />I found that 10 minutes per layer worked great, and only the thinnest layer of icing between the layers kept the cake from sliding around like a stack of wet plates.<br />IMHO, lemon cuts some of the cloying sweetness of the icing. Next time I do this I'm subbing lemon curd between the layers.<br />It is a fun cake.<br /><br />For some reason OpenID isn't working today...<br />http://stonemaven.livejournal.com/Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8933586451857161893.post-87610195686990439212009-10-01T17:21:50.673-07:002009-10-01T17:21:50.673-07:00Wow.

Buttercr...That's beautiful; love those colors!<br /><br />Buttercream frosting should not require eggs and cooking and that sort of fussing, though. Our recipe uses butter, confectioner's sugar, and a little bit of milk. And I think maybe a tad of vanilla and salt? And you just mix it. We've been using it for years, and I don't recall ever having had it break. Just FYI, 'cause I'd hate for you to have to go to all that trouble again the next time you make a cake.Rachel R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/01598574256854766532noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8933586451857161893.post-69807428225086672132009-09-28T22:06:36.096-07:002009-09-28T22:06:36.096-07:00You are hilarious!

I love it....Woah. THAT is definitely an EPIC cake.<br /><br />I love it.<br /><br />My question is, does it matter what cake & buttercream recipe you use as long as you divide the batter properly to colour?<br /><br />I've got a great white cake recipe from when I was studying with a pastry chef (lol it's true!) and I've got a really delicious buttercream recipe that isn't nearly as much work as yours is!<br /><br />I want to know if I could get away with using those? I should also send you the icing recipe... you won't have to work so hard to get it perfect!Gingerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13902607052673904892noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8933586451857161893.post-66756968885573562562009-09-24T05:47:51.137-07:002009-09-24T05:47:51.137-07:00I'm making this next week!
