I'm assuming it was refrigerated.<br /><br />My friend has a January birthday too (and kinda hates it too). I made him his fav cake: Boston Cream Pie (from Tish Boyle's "The Cake Book"). This year (he turned 50), he refused to celebrate it with anything more than a cake until summer, at which point he'll be throwing a big party :o) Talk about a rebel, ha ha!<br /><br />Btw, what kind of pudding did you end up making? I was a little confused when I read your comment on my blog.

A guy who will willingly chopd vegetables, grate cheese AND make you a spectacular cake for your birthday is the ideal kitchen assistant.

My mom's birthday is Christmas Eve and I always thought that was tough but at least everyone is in a festive mood. I can see how Jan 5 is less desireable.Nancy/n.o.ehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12870024363382414106noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7062237620274475848.post-49467433372923271372010-01-25T08:41:46.405-08:002010-01-25T08:41:46.405-08:001/5 sounds pretty good to me... my birthday is 12/...1/5 sounds pretty good to me... my birthday is 12/26!<br /><br />Hey Josh, that cake looks mighty good...you should bake one for me!Ras Yetihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08776210787432280646noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7062237620274475848.post-67821209667456703062010-01-24T18:33:32.445-08:002010-01-24T18:33:32.445-08:00I can definitely see what you're saying about ...I can definitely see what you're saying about having a birthday early in January - definitely not an ideal time. Hope you enjoyed this year's though! <br /><br />I am so impressed with the cake Josh made - it's gorgeous!! Shane made me one a few years ago and it was delicious, but it came from a box :) I wish I had more occasions to make layer cakes because I really want to buy that book.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02131968703642650198noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7062237620274475848.post-38868838727250726762010-01-24T18:20:57.644-08:002010-01-24T18:20:57.644-08:00Wow!

The white chocolate frosting sounds especially interesting. How weird that it got moldy so quickly though. I'm not sure that my husband would make a layer cake, but he is always willing to chop, stir, grate, and load the dishwasher, which I really appreciate!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7062237620274475848.post-51994444265826329752010-01-24T17:56:58.393-08:002010-01-24T17:56:58.393-08:00Happy Very Belated Birthday Margot!

I hear you about January birthdays, I've always wished you and your brother had birthdays in a more party friendly month and felt a little sorry for you that your birthday comes so close on the heels of Christmas.JoAnn Fredahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11240421577171367015noreply@blogger.com
