Martha's Yellow Cake


Martha's Yellow Cake, originally uploaded by That Bohemian Chick.

I baked Troy's Grandfather a birthday cake last weekend. He's just turned 80. Since he's a retired baker, there was no way I could get by with a box cake. He highly praised the cake. It's from the Martha Stewart Baking cookbook I got from the kids for x-mas. I used the yellow cake recipe with the Swiss Meringue Buttercream frosting. The filling is Bonne Maman strawberry preserves. Yum!

Funny, it's remarkable like the one I made for my daughter's birthday last month. Totally different recipes pieced together in pretty much the same way. Although, I think I may have used a white cake recipe, if I remember right.

Yours looks lighter and fluffier than my cake was, which in my book is a definite plus. Delicious looking, anyway.

And, about the comment you left me: I don't ever remember feeling the baby drop like this before. Maybe I did and just don't remember, but it's definitely not cozy.
