A Daisy Cake and Two Awards

I made this Daisy cake for a potluck at my hubby's office. It is a yellow cake frosted with buttercream and filed with strawberry buttercream. I decorated the cake with few fondant daisies. The frosting on the cake is not very smooth, i need to improve here.I will post the recipe sometime later.


Last week i received my first award from cham of spice-club. Thank you so much for this wonderful award cham. Its only about 2 months since i started blogging and i can't belive i got an award. I would like to thank all my fellow-bloggers and friends for their support and encouragement .

Hi Sandhya, thanks so much for the award dear, I'm honoured:) Congrats on receiving both of them....:)

The cake looks pretty, the frosting is good, needs a little tweaking thats all :) One tip --(not sure if you know this already)when you are done frosting, dip your spatula in little water and smooth out the top, all the unevenness will be covered:)I learned this recently so thought I'd pass it on...:)

As your Husband's colleague I should share everyone's reaction at the potluck.

The Cake was so pretty that most of us did not have the heart to cut it. Finally someone dared and there on we all realised that the cake TASTED awesome too.

Being artistic and meticulous is a wonderful talent, I adore you for that.

And here is address of my friend's craft blog (the one I promised to share with you)

Pleasing cake - the frosting looks fine to me - someone who doesn't even attempt it, forget perfecting it!
