1) I use cake flour when I am baking special or birthday cakes. My grandfather always makes everyone a white cake with chocolate frosting for birthdays. So, that is the first cake I would make. Then I have a great chocolate cake recipe that is light, fluffy, and deliciously chocolately, almost fudgy without the heaviness. 2) I am actually due in 1.5 weeks on August 15th, which is also my husband's birthday. Not sure how much I'll feel like making a birthday cake by then, so I will make a combo baby and daddy birthday cake. (I always make a birthday cake for my hubby. A few years ago, my hubby and I were lucky enough to work in London for a month. I had friends from work in the US ship me foil pans, just so I could make a cake! haha Luckily, the rest of the ingredients, I could find in the supermarket. =) Thanks for sharing the above!!
