Look at this! Isn't it beautiful? And yummy, too...



And this is what it looks like in the inside:



It was a lot of fussy work, but it's worth every minute of it. Even though next time - assuming there will be a next time - I'll use Grandma's sponge mixture. This one resulted in a slightly dry cake.

Other than spent hours in the kitchen, I also made another little purse, and we had laundry day. Consequently lunch consisted of leftover soup and cake. I can live with that. We watched a bit the athletics world championship, since it takes place in our city anyway, and then just collapsed and rested a bit.

Oh dear! I always fall adleep when watching athletics on TV! Cake looks wonderful! Don't you think that a sponge cake might get soggy combined with such a load of cream?

Well, at least it will be really soft that way, which is good for people like Mum. *g*

As promised, I was very careful with Lebensmittelfarbe. *g*

That looks yummy!

I have been watching the World Athletics Championships too — and thinking of you and your mother :)

That is very kind of you! Perhaps one day you'll find your way over the pond and I can show you my beautiful city.

It is very good indeed. So it's a good thing that the sponge is a tad dried than I'd like it; that way we've only eaten half of it by now. ;)

That cake looks absolutely yummy. I think, with all those fillings/toppings etc. you can get away with a drier cake.

I don't think it would bother anyone else; I'm just as bad a perfectionist with my baking as I am with my crafting. *g*
