Amazing flavor combinations! Thankyou everyone for the inspiration. I've been getting really sick of the same old chocolate and vanilla my family requests.
MacsMom if it's ok to ask would you be willing to share how you make the orange dreamsicle cake. It sounds so good! Thankyou.

Oh my goodness, I didn't mean to put you on the spot. Whenever- if ever, you get the time I would really appreciate it..or should I say my hubby would really appreciate it icon_razz.gif !



Well, I've looked at recipes for honey cake and I think it would work just fine to use yellow cake mix with the only change in the WASC recipe being to substitute 1 c of the sugar for 1 c honey. Use butter extract and vanilla extract, and perhaps add mini-chocolate chips. (Or maybe a milk chocolate cake with honey! icon_surprised.gif )

The filling would be something like Bettercreme or Truffle filling with crushed up honeycomb mixed in. Like Cadbury's "Crunchie" bar.

It's my favorite cake!

Orange Dreamsicle
1 box white cake mix         
2 c melted orange sherbet
1 c flour
1 c sugar            
2 Yoplait orange creamsicle yogurt   
1 pkg vanilla pudding   
3 eggs
2 T oil
2 t orange extract

I just read a recipe from Lindy Smith where she makes an orange cake and marbles it with melted chocolate - a new twist instead of adding mini-chocolate chips to cake batter! I want to try that for my next experiment. Perhaps with the honeycomb cake.

I have the recipe for homemade honeycomb, but don't have time to copy it down just now...

Macs Mom thanks for the dreamcicle cake recipe. I made it today and iced it with Rich's Bettercream and everyone loved it. It was the perfect dessert for a Sunday afternoon lunch. Thanks again.

MacsMom..do you think the recipes that you mix with Frostin' Pride would work with simple Buttercream?

Well, I wouldn't add pudding to buttercream, but you could use Cool Whip. It just has to stay refrigerated until a of couple hours before the party if you are using fondant (so the condensation can dry), and then put the leftovers back in the fridge ASAP.

But you can certainly flavor your BC with everything else except the pudding icon_smile.gif Have you checked out all of the flavors of LoRann oils yet? The cheesecake flavor works well in BC, especially if there is salt in your recipe (to dampen the sweetness).

No, I haven't tried LorAnns oils, tho i keep seeing great reviews everywhere, so its something I will definitely be looking into.

Thanks for the suggestions!

And it doesn't take much of the oils. I usually mix in to the amount I'll be using for the filling & it really only takes a few drops.

WOW! Loving this thread! Exactly what I was looking for to fill a cake for a friends bachelorette party! What do you use for marshmallow filling? Marshmallow creme?

Thanks!
