Hi guys, i <3 this site. Its been such a help and inspiration.
And now I need just a wee bit more help on this one.

Order: 13 differently flavored cakes.
Problem: Frosting needs to be either buttercream or choc.buttercream.

o.O

the buttercream can be flavored but the consistancy and color needs to remain ivory/white and chocolate.

I've got a few, written down...but i think they are in my car. I know I know...strange place right?! haha

Thanks
Nikki

13 flavours? WOW, how big is the cake?

Lemon, Key Lime, Deamcycle, Strawberry, Raspberry, Mocha, Carrot, Banana, Pumpkin, Vanilla, Coffee, Rum, Butter Pecan, Peppermint, Caramel. Wow, what an opportunity to experiment with flavors.

haha its 13 separate cakes!

What flavors are the cakes?? That might help with figuring out BC flavors. I love a good brain storm!!

Thats the thing, I dunno the flavors for the cakes. Thats what I need.

haha im gettin there I"ve got some. But the cakes have to have a BC frosting....be it regular or chocolate BC.

so like a carrot cake...doesnt work very well with a BC frosting.

OK! How bout Red Velvet cake (the best cake ever) of course chocolate, strawberry, orange, mocha, well, red velvet fer sher...good luck!!!!

You may want to look at this site. They also have a Cake Mix Doctor cookbook which, IMHO, is well worth the money. The paperback version is only about $15, available in most bookstores.

*** Ask about other candy bar flavors - almost any can be made into a cake.

You could try chocolate, french vanilla, lemon, orange/dreamsicle, butter, peanutbutter, cherry chip, caramel, red velvet, fudge, white-choclate, pound, lemon-lime, banana & marble. You could then add flavoring to your buttercream to fit the cake flavor. I know the Loranne oils have lots of flavors that add no color to your b/c or if it's a slight too ivory you can add americolors bright white I think it is.
