Plenty of raves from family and friends and absolutely no complaints, but the perfectionist in me wants to do better next time. I’m thinking that slightly less sugar and more eggs (maybe 1.75 cups sugar and 4 eggs?) would make for a better textured cake, and hopefully the oil would still help keep it moist?

The Swiss meringue buttercream was fantastic – I’ve made Italian before, but it was a lot easier and it was incredibly durable, even if it did scare me a few times by looking curdled after adding the butter. I barely had enough to frost the three layers and ended up with a really simple design (upside down powdered sugared rosemary trees), so definitely make that second batch if you want to do frosting decorations!

It’s the best recipe and instructions I’ve found! Swapped the eggnog/spices/vanilla for 2 tsp coconut extract for my grandmother’s coconut cake with pineapple curd filling and it was INCREDIBLE! Thank you!

I’m trying to find a way to make an egg nog rum cake, but I’m a fairly novice baker who needs a good starting point before I start putting my own spin on things. Any suggestions will be appreciated, I’ll even give you a shout out on my site.
