Calling Homedecor1

I made my 40 year old son's birthday cake with Duncan Hines white cake as you suggested.  

I googled and found "Best Butter Cream Icing" and put fresh strawberries on top.  It was unbelieveable!  Far past strawberry shortcake!

 

I had to do the icing in "petals" like your grandaughter did since the top wanted to roll up into the icing.  (You KNOW how that goes!).

 

Thank you!Smiley Happy

@ECBG 

 

Yeah....I love that box cake mix so versatile🙂🙂

 

I've made the layers filled with

lemon, rasberry, apricot, strawberry or what ever I feel like.  

 

 

Next time try the french vanilla just as yummy & moist!!!

So happy to share and happy 40th birthday to your son🧁🎂🎉🎈mine just turned 40 too!

 

Isn't that icing technique cool..I'm making a 75th bday cake for end of May and going to make something using that technique..

 

Glad hubby enjoyed every once in awhile mine asks for this cake too!
