I sure would love a slice of Alex’s birthday cake lol!
lol! Rhonda, I just put the rest of mine in the freezer. There were 2 regular size slices left, so I put them down on wax paper on the cake side and cut them in half. Then I spread the buttercream frosting across the side facing up..Now there’s 4 smaller ones. I love frozen cake in the summer!
Oh, sounds so yummy, VJ! The buttercream is the best part, enjoy the rest of your birthday cake!
VJ, the leader five day total is $108,299.
