When you bake a cake and finish putting on the decorated icing, what fruit do you put on it if any? Do you put a specific layer of a different icing between the layers of bread? The other day, we decided to make a cake out of scratch. It wasn't very easy, but in the end I think it made out to be all right. The icing seemed to be a bit sweeter than expected, though when we made the layer of icing between the layer of bread to be red bean flavored, it was absolutely perfect. We also put a couple slices of mangoes that complemented with the icing on top, and so far, it's been a new favorite. The cakes provided from stores are too sweet.. while the cake mixes end up turning into brownie mixes.. Do you like baking cakes?

I haven't done too many cakes, so I really heaven't experienced with different layers of icing. But I love to put strawberries on top of the cake most! :D

I love baking. Normally I use the same icing for in between layers and on top of the cake. If I am adding toppings to the icing, I will make the icing less sweet. My favourite toppings include peaches (I use canned peaches), kiwi slices, grapes (halves), fresh cherries and sometimes strawberries (halves).
