parley view parsnip. . . let there be cake

Yes, the parsnip had a Birthday on Sunday !
I am now legally older than the earth.
But I had a great day, lunch and dinner out.
Lots of birthday wishes, presents and Daughter special ordered
my favorite cake from,  Frog, the French Bakery.
A Princess Cake.
Yes, the parsnip is a Princess.

I have not had this cake in over 10 years. 
Not every bakery makes them. 
...
 A Marzipan covered white cake
.
with raspberry jam and raspberry cream.
This cake is perfect.
Perfect for a parsnip.
nom nom nom

Let There Be Cake.

    1. I don't really eat sweets. And I must admit we had some cake and minced pie and never got around to eat them.
      I did have some candy canes. I gained no weight over the holidays.
      But I love this cake. A small slice with an afternoon coffee.

  9. OMG!!Princess cake. My sister and I were just discussing shortcuts to making a princess cake. It involved a purchased cake, a bowl and some marzipan. Roll out marzipan. Put into bowl, shove half of cake into bowl add raspberry jam and rest of cake. Turn over-decorate and voila. What do you think? It's my sister's favorite.
