In Korea most of the cakes are decorated in glossy fruit slices. And I hate it. And the cakes here are NOT tasty, fluffy layers of tasteless buttercream (or too buttery buttercream), variations on whipped cream for icing, and again fluffy layers of tasteless cake... I love Korea but I'm not a fan of fusion anything. I'll try to get some pics of cakes around here the next time I think of it...<br /><br />Cecilia - a Canadian in her favourite place, South koreaSweetCeciliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04421602660444694372noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932214040062195180.post-55054761242059195922010-10-18T17:51:07.886-04:002010-10-18T17:51:07.886-04:00At first I thought it was "Congratuffling,&qu...At first I thought it was "Congratuffling," but now I'm leaning toward "Congratitteling."Sophiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05573354278382719167noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1932214040062195180.post-33314900140640196852010-10-11T11:01:51.337-04:002010-10-11T11:01:51.337-04:00"The texting pirate..."
