Filling Flavors

How many times have you been to a wedding where they served white cake with white frosting? Yea, it's good... but why not make it something people will go home raving about? There are several ways bakers put cakes together. Many have three layers of cake and two layers of filling. I prefer four layers of cake and three layers of filling.

Filling a cake this way provides the opportunity to do some really beautiful things. I think the cake should be beautiful on the outside and the inside. Adding colored or flavored butter creams and fruit fillings will add the ooh factor when the cake is cut.

I am so excited about the wedding cake I am making this weekend. Inside will be pineapple filling and guava mousse. This adds beautiful color to the cake and delicious flavor. Why not treat your guests to something unexpected... and delicious!
