You know how it is, my daughter wanted a store-bought birthday cake for her teenage party. A homemade cake just wouldn't do. She choose a purple cake, with multicolored polka-dots. As you can see, the cake is very cute. Too bad it didn't taste very good. The cake itself was good, but forget the purple icing. Purple icing tasted worse than red or black icing. It was awful!
A few days later, we had some of our friends over for another birthday celebration. My husband was preparing his famous chicken fajitas. After eating a slightly spicy meal, I suggested that we needed something cool and creamy like the Pig Pickin' Cake" for dessert. My daughter doesn't care for artificial whipped topping so I came up with this from-scratch version of a Mandarin Orange Cake. My daughter admitted my cake was much, much better than the store-bought cake.
