Isn’t this cake sweet?
Quite literally, it is. But, so adorable, too.
I used one of my favorite cakes, an unbelievably wonderful strawberry one. Very easy to make as it starts with a mix. It is heavenly with cream cheese icing. I’d definitely urge you to give it a try, but your favorite cake would stand in just fine.
