Oh! Putting the crumb back into your butter cream along with the cherries is an AMAZING idea! I havent even tried this yet and I can see its a game changer!

[@babybella2746]

Thank you for the recipe. 🙏🏻 I definitely will try to make the cake soon.
Btw, I find this particular background music a distraction. Perhaps a different tune next time.

[@basil_kitchen]

Thanks for the cake love! I guess the music isn't everyone’s cup of tea-maybe I’ll choose something that pairs better with cake next time, like a sweet symphony or the sound of frosting being spread!

Can we skip the alcohol?
