... but that's just me. What does your friend like?

Say what you want, it is vanilla and it is sweet!

Bake a real cake with actual flavors!

They can taste the "love" if you make that an ingredient. Sounds like you will.

Maybe a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting in the shape of a carrot.

This process is helping me get creative.

Thanks DU

YUM!!!

"Devil's food cake" is used both to describe a moist, dark, cake with an intense chocolate flavour.

But I like my cake too plain for that.

3 layers of lemon cake filled with lemon curd and raspberry French buttercream, with white icing and lots of frosting flowers! Yum!

does the raspberry and French buttercream "mesh" togther taste wise?

buttercream. I do like raspberries, and lemon.

made a chocolate cake with oatmeal in it for all our birthdays. Both were delicious. I don't have either recipe but you can probably find them online with ratings for how much they were liked. The Oatmeal Chocolate cake was from Nova Scotia. It was my mom's Aunt Frances'.

I also like chocolate cake with peanutbutter frosting.

It was a New England specialty.

Basically a white cake usually 2 or 3 layers but each with a different colored food dye, and the icing would be yet another color! 😄

So let's say - cake layers - orange, yellow, blue and purple frosting!

Haven't thought of those in decades.
What would it more fun/funny if cooking times compatible one lemon cake layer but colored blue!

Anyway, chocolate, carrot, cocconut, or lemon would be my favorites (with chocolate way ahead of the others). Although chocolate coconut combo sounds yummy; I love the Mounds candy bar.

Have fun what you bake! 🎂 👍

I'll tell her. She'll probably get a kick that I remembered.

Not very difficult to make. My wife bakes one for me every year.

Damned if I remember what it was, but it was my favorite!

or chocolate cake with chocolate frosting (easier to get)

Basically yellow cake, cut in half with custard inside and dark chocolate frosting a bit thinner than regular frosting on top.

You can make all of it by scratch.
