Another year, another birthday to celebrate!
A double-decker cake with chocolate (Oregon-grown) hazelnut ganache on bottom and vanilla buttercream up top. Best cake I've made, even if it isn't as elegantly Oregon-shaped as I would like. Also, this year I made an Oregon pendant for a necklace so I can love my home state more often without aching over baking a cake in the kitchen. Whoohoo!
Take it easy, Oregon.
