Mi amiga Tammy is about to pop one out and had a baby shower last weekend, and so I made a cake to go along with it. Her favorite flavors are mango and strawberry, so I made Nick Malgieri's white cake, with strawberry jam and Rose Levy Berenbaum's neoclassic buttercream with mango puree added. I decided to go a more natural route and didn't use any fondant, and used real flowers for decoration. This is due to the fact that I think that most baby shower cakes look pretty lame / creepy. So I made it simple, and it came out really well, and tasted pretty fantastic. It was a tough crowd given that most of the people there worked at the bakery. And Tammy was pleased.
