I've Been Baking Again

It's been a long time since I had the urge to bake. It was no special occasion so I just made a simple vanilla cake with creamy butter-cream frosting.

 

It was very moist cake and not overly sweet. With butter cream you just never know if it's going to be over powering or just right. It's been a very wet summer so I was afraid that the cake might be a bit dense because of the moisture in the air. But it wasn't a problem at all. 

The one thing I'm a little bum about is that I used special shaped cake pans, they weren't just plane circles they were almost like graphic flowers (like this shape here.) Once I frosted it you couldn't tell. D:

As you can tell the layers are very thick. I'm not sure if that has something to do with the cake pans or the recipe....but I think that helped with the frosting...more cake to deal with the rich frosting. And yes it was very yummy!
