I'm keeping this short and sweet because its late.
I might have over baked mine just a tad, it had a dark golden crust.
I traded the raspberry preserves for strawberry preserves.
The frosting was a little bit of a pain to make. When I make this cake again I'll probably use a butter/confectioner's sugar icing, the meringue buttercream was a little too 'egg-y' for my tastes.
My layers weren't even but it didn't matter.
Party cake got great reviews. One taster reported that the coconut was not necessary, I kind of agree. Although it did make the cake 'prettier'.
Fun cake to make and eat and I know I'll make it again. Thanks to Carol of Mix, mix...stir, stir for this week's selection!
I think your Perfect Party Cake looks so cute and I love your cake stand! Mine was overcooked a tad too and I think I might skip the coconut next time too. =)
