Unique Birthday Cakes

As you may have read, last weekend my hubby turned 50. This big milestone was marked by a nice party at our home that was attended by about 20 close friends. We had a wonderful time visiting and enjoying company. Not to mention the great food! One of the fun features and highlights of a big birthday is the cake. I made sure to have a special one that my hubby loves in order for all to enjoy.

We have a specialty bakery a few towns away that makes a fabulous cake called the Fruit Basket. It is a white cake that is filled with layers of fresh fruit like strawberries, banana, lemon curd, and whipped cream. It uses whipped cream as the frosting and then is covered with shaved white chocolate. It is heaven in your mouth! It is actually very light! So delicious!

We also had a wonderful friend bring a fun and festive ice cream cake. It was decorated with fun ice cream cone clowns and perfect for the kids. A wonderful taste treat too!

Both my hubby and son are not big cake eaters, but white and lemon are their favorite and they love ice cream too, so these hit the mark. Do you do any unique cakes for birthdays? Share with your faves.
