  4. my favorite one ever was when my boss’s mom made me the original German Chocolate Cake from SCRATCH! She was German and 77 yr old. I treasured it because that was Oct of 98 and by Aug of 99 she was dying in my arms. among her last words were “I won’t get to bake your cake this year” She loved me as her own. Her daughter and I had been friends since school and she actually replaced my mom in my heart when my mom passed away when I was 19. But every birthday that comes now, I see that beautiful cake and her wonderful smile. God is good! Linda Crowder

  8. What an easy question today after such a hard one yesterday. My favorite birthday cake is an angel food with a 7 minute frosting. My Nana used to make me a homemade angel food cake for every birthday and she would tint the delicious 7 minute icing with blue, or green, or pink. Boy, was that cake ever good. Nana has been gone for over 25 years now and what I wouldn’t give for one of her wonderful cakes. Thanks.

  31. The hummingbird is really beautiful. Wonderful sneak peak.

    My favorite birthday cake is Death by Chocolate. I’ve had it twice. There is a baker in north Oklahoma City that makes it and it’s pricey at over $40 but so worth it. I call it “sin on a plate”. I settle for plain old chocolate most years to keep the family happy. I’d really prefer apple cobbler or pie, lemon cake or a carrot cake. So I really appreciate these when I’m somewhere that serves them.

    My favorite cake would be a carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. But, chocolate would be right up there. Seeing the shamrock in the picture reminded me of the cakes my mom made for me. My birthday is St. Patrick’s Day. One year she made me an angel food cake and put a doll in the center and she was the doll from Ireland with her dress of shamrocks and then mom managed to tink the icing green too and extended her dress down the cake! But that was before carrot cake and cream cheese frosting made an appearance! Again, congratulations on turning 1.
