  • The cake was not a lie!

    I have found my second favorite cake. My favorite is Chocolate with white icing, and my second was white cake with chocolate icing..but it moves to number three. Red velvet cake with strawberry icing now takes second. Just got done devouring a large slice.

    Yes, I know..diabetic, shouldn't have it..but...but it's cake!!!

      Small pieces. Keep them few and far between.

      Red Velvet is good. I am still a chocolate fan. The more chocolate the better. Chocolate cake with chocolate fudge icing, covered with milk chocolate shaving is a good start.

          German chocolate cake. That strange coconut frosting is a taste of heaven.
          A well made carrot cake is amazing as well.
          Another good one is a standard vanilla cake with dried cherries and cherry flavored frosting

              My brother's ritual birthday cake was always a very very dark and rich chocolate cake made with miracle whip in the batter, with a cooked fudge frosting. I scored the recipe cards for them with the rest of my mom's cookbooks and recipe collection.

              I have always found that cake from scratch [other than carrot cake] is amazingly easy and inexpensive. I just hate grating carrots to make carrot cake even though it is one f my absolute favorites.

                The cake I make most often, because my son goes crazy for it, is a dark rich fudgy chocolate cake with vanilla filling... Lady Baltimore cake is yummy too, but it's a little more time-consuming so I don't make that so often...

                    Tomato Soup Cake with Cream Cheese Icing.

                    I'd be happy if you didn't like it. I'd eat your share.

                      This was what I was talking about as one of my favorites. I just could not find the words . This would be my number one favorite, even above the red velvet/strawberry. *drool*

                        I've heard of this and it sounds good. Tomato is a fruit, after all. I'm going to look up cooked fudge icing.

                            Red velvet with strawberry icing???

                            I'm pretty good at mentally tasting flavors and those just don't seem to go together at all.

                            I make a pretty damn good scratch red velvet cake which I ice with white chocolate cream cheese frosting.

                              Yes, I wasn't sure of the combination either..but it works. It was soooo good. Couldn't have much cause of the Diabetes..but it was delicious.
