This weekend, I helped my friend Jess make a cake for her Mother in Law's birthday. We were pleased with the result - very flowery and pink! We got round the fire risk hazard of the ribbons and flowers catching fire on the cake by putting the candles in a separate pot of flowers which made a really nice table display. The cake itself was almondy - with ground almonds, flaked almonds, almond butter and buttermilk, doused in Amaretto and covered in almond buttercream!

How beautiful your cake looks!
Wow that is one impressive and highly beautiful cake - I think I'd be rather bowled over if I ever got a birthday cake like that - fit for a wedding! xxx
I would be to sorry to cut it! Beautiful!
Hannah, that is one beautiful cake!! I think anyone would be rather impressed to get one of your cakes. I know I would!
Stunning Hannah. I bet she was thrilled.
Not only a beautiful cake Hannah, but it also sounds absolutely delicious...a veritable almond-fest! I can't think of any other cake I'd rather eat right now!
Is there a recipe lurking somewhere on your blog...?
