Mother's Day Story:
This was a cake mama made one Christmas. She wanted us to have a special Christmas and did not have a lot of money to bake with. She wanted the cake to be pretty so she used these ingredients. After that Christmas, the cake has become a family tradition. I was about 9 years old at the time the cake first started and now I am 40. I will cherish this recipe and my children will too.
Thank you,
