This cake started as an absolute disaster, but turned out to be a masterpiece. This was my second cake class in a 4 part series. It had been a long day, I was exhausted, and some how the oven got turned off in the middle of baking my cakes. After grating all the lemon zest and making the cake from scratch, I was not about to start over. The cakes sunk in the middle, so they just got a little extra raspberry filling (seedless jam works well) and buttercream frosting. The technique we used on the top was chantilly lace and this was my first experience with making roses (definitely not the easiest thing in the world). The cake actually turned out moist, flavorful and not too bad to look at. Look out Wegman's Bakery, here I come!!
