turned into a delicious good looking cake. As you have seen in my last post, the moist chocolate cake was so fragile. It cracked a bit that I was mending it so it would hold the icing. I cut the crusty brown top to make it even.
Butter icing is the best icing I can make of all my cakes. I tried making the boiled frosting/icing before for decorating my cake but I was not contented. So, butter icing is my go-to icing. It only differs from the flavoring that I use. In this moist chocolate cake, I used Jamaican bourbon vanilla flavor and it always tasted good that even the smell makes me full.
I am glad that the guests at the birthday was loving this cake again. They are praising my cake and I am happy about that. I am sorry if I make you droll again..
Anyway, how is/was your weekend? Any news? I didn´t come here yesterday as I was tired. Tomorrow will be a normal day again for me.
I hope all is well with you. I am behind with my notifications again but I am doing it. Thanks for reading. Have a nice new week ahead.

Looks delicious. My favorite chocolate icing is a James beard recipe sour cream and melted semi sweet bits with a pinch of salt. It is so good!!
