Classic white pound cake...tones of lemon and almond.

Plain ole' SMBC.

My fave as well. I could easily eat a 6" round of that all by myself.

And I didn't misspell "tons", I meant that the flavor of the cake has hints (tones) of lemon and almond. icon_wink.gif

vanilla pound cake with vanilla buttercream is always popular.

I sell a lot of coconut cake with pineapple filling for summer weddings.

It's really a simple thing to do. I'm a box mix caker so I start with a strawberry cake mix (I use DH), and substitute margarita mix for half of the water amount. I'll also grate in some lime zest for color. It's a big hit, and it's something I learned from my mother.

I dont't have customers yet but my friends and family usually rave about the WASC with blueberry filling and my decadent chocolate with dark chocolate ganache (my personal fave).

jovigirl - I usually use just plain buttercream (I'm a fan of the Wilton buttercream) with a little lime juice added in. I try not to play with the flavor in the buttercream because I don't want it to distract from the cake.

Misdawn - I went to the Galveston campus and I loved it. icon_smile.gif

Just as an FYI (along the same lines as the margarita mix) - I've used pina colada mix in a white cake before as well. It gives a nice flavor for those who don't like the texture of coconut but like the flavor. I actually don't get many requests for this, but I've done it a couple of times.

I am looking for this icing my grandmother use to make. When you would cut the cake the icing would make a crackling noise . It was hard & sugary. I remember going to the church fairs & hearing that sound when they would cut you a piece of cake. She would beat her egg whites until she would turn her plate upside down & the egg whites would stick to the plate& not fall out. I do not know what she would put in the egg white. She would not cook the ingredients. Any one who would know any information please let me know. Thank you.

I tried a white DH cake mix with a can of Bacardis mix (undiluted). My cake didn't not rise in the middle. So, I did it again...lol still flat in the middle.
Anyone who has tried this recipe know why????
