This cake is as cute as a puppy!
The best cakes are those you make for your own kids. But when your Mum is a cake decorator, it can sometimes be pretty hard to decide what cake you want. Hunny finally settled on a Beagle. After all, her first puppy was a Beagle, and I have to say, even though he was a lot of work, he was pretty darn cute.
My inspiration for the design of this cake was from a gorgeous Instagrammer Sweet Peach Cake. Definitely check out her designs, they are amazing!
I baked one batch of my vanilla bean and passionfruit cake, but I baked it in three 8″ pans, so the result with a little fluffier, and a much taller cake. From now on I’m doing to do this every time, it’s was so just perfect for this flavour.
