J's Aunt Kay's Sherry Recipe- and a Bundt Cake Decoration
Adding a bouquet to the center of a bundt cake for decoration
I love a bundt cake- One of my favorite childhood memories- is when my Mom would make Great Aunt Kay’s Sherry Cake Bundt Cake… It was a staple in our house for special occasions- and even became a multi-generation treat… my Nephew’s love it… because they ‘thought’ they were getting drunk eating it… heheheh! It’s a simple bundt cake recipe… and the ideal prop for this segment…
A bundt cake is perfectly designed – for flowers- and filling the center of the Bundt- with flowers – just requires a simple bouquet… let’s do this… and I share a few tips and tricks for creating this simple ‘drop-in’ flower decoration…
And- as Promised in this episode- I’ve included my Great Aunt Kay’s Recipe here… Special Thanks to my Aunt Alyce- that had the original recipe in her recipe file so I could bake it for the filming…and EXTRA SPECIAL THANKS to my sister Cindy- who had a backup copy- since I lost the other from Aunt Alyce… – I do love that it’s in My Sister Cindy’s handwriting… My sister has always had Beautiful Handwriting- just like her Terrariums…
