And this year, I wasn’t big on planning for my husband’s day. I’m not sure why I wasn’t. I just didn’t do much at all. As a matter of fact, you could say I didn’t do enough at all. And you’d be right. You could even say I was a pitiful wife for not doing more for him. And you’d be right again. So I decided to pull out all the stops and surprise him with a gorgeous birthday cake. He has three favorite cakes — strawberry, caramel, and coconut. I decided on coconut for this year. It just sounded like a good surprise cake. Here’s how I made it. I started with my favorite Butter Cake recipe and then dolled it up with an over the top delicious Southern Coconut Frosting. Can you say to die for? Oh my word!!!
I’m hoping he didn’t notice all of the other stuff I didn’t do for his birthday. And… I sure hope he remembers mine! Enjoy!Robyn xo
