From our Recipe Box - Orange Coconut Almond Cake ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dede Wilson’s luscious book, Wedding Cakes You Can Make, a step-by-step guide for the bride and baker-to-be, caught our eye. She adds almond paste to her basic yellow cake recipe for one special creation. This gave us the idea for our Mother’s Day cake. Here we made a light almond butter cake filled and frosted with a simple orange buttercream. Large flake coconut pressed into the sides of the frosted cake give it a festive look although any type of unsweetened coconut can be used. Decorate the top with fresh mint, pansies or other edible flowers if you like. | |

Almond and Mixed Berry Shortcakes ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Easy to make with the rich taste of almond paste, these shortcakes are something you'll want to serve all summer. For Spring and Mother's Day, we've layered them with blueberries and raspberries. When peach season arrives, try them sliced with a dash of rum. Plums appear in late August, another excuse to whip up a batch for a summer supper. | |

May Special Offer ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
