Raspberry Filled Cake with Rose Buttercream

A Pink Cake for Ebony​

The cake is the Vanilla Milk Cake, a favorite go-to cake because it's so easy to make and so very moist. The rose buttercream is simplyItalian Buttercream with
​ rose water added to it. 

Food grade Rose Water is water flavored by steeping rose petals in water. It has the most distinctive taste that I can only describe as fragrant and light. It taste just like it smells, beautifully rosy and adds  an extra elegance
to your buttercream.

The cake topper and flowers were made with Rolled Marshmallow Fondant.Because I was giving the cake away as a gift, it didn't need to be such a big cake, so I used a 6" round cake pan. Perfect for serving up to ten people.

I've known Ebony since she was this skinny little,  only child. ​ A sweet and friendly child who'd always come by to play with my daughter during our ​winter visits to Florida many years ago. ​​​
