Ths sounds delicious, Kathy, and I'm sure she'll love it. Along with the fresh berries in the center, you could scatter some around the base as well (once you get there). And serving the cake with whipped cream would help keep the berries in place. If you're worried about driving 4 hours with whipped cream, I can highly recommend whipped cream in a spray can — the real stuff, not non-dairy. There are good brands out there (including Cabot), ones that actually taste like fresh whipped cream. Good luck, and happy birthday to your daughter! PJH@KAF
