Cake is pie adjacent right?







Made an almond yellow cake with a blueberry filling (cooked and strained the bloobs) and a lemon butter frosting (think buttercream, but no vanilla or cream and just substitute lemon juice and zest for the cream). poo poo is phenomenal!

Thanks!

Even better today than it was yesterday. The flavors have developed a bit more and the blueberry feels more present. The lemon juice in the frosting isn't as intense and the oils from the zest are more pronounced. 9/10

I overbeat my cake batter, so I lost some volume and the cake didn't rise as much as I would've like so the cake is a lil dense, but very moist. It'd really help if I had a stand mixer instead of trying to use a hand mixer that goes way too fast, but I'm not about to not eat this cake so I'll consider it a win regardless.

I made a key lime cheesecake yesterday. Still need to top it today with whipped cream and mango slices. Just waiting for it to come up to temp.

It collapsed in on itself a bit. Think I overwhipped it a bit and baked it just slightly too long, but I'm 100% confident it'll be delicious. If anything it collapsing slightly will help it hold the topping better.

Edit:

Here it is all finished


Unfortunately I couldn't find any mangoes that were super ripe, so they were a bit tough to cut. Still delicious af overall.
