Yes....my birthday 14th Dec 2016 ! Make myself a huge delicious Vanilla Fresh Fruit Cake. It was so good!! The only thing wasn't perfect is the whipped cream. Little thing that when i thought its easy, it turn to be the biggest problem among all. I have no problem in whipping all the time, just too bad, i guess its the brand i bought whatever is that, it wasn't a good one and i won't going back for that particular brand ever again.
Back to my lovely cake, it was yummy. A huge Basic Sponge Cake, was a good choice to bake this cake for my birthday.
