I'm still stuffed from the yummy cake last night... and i'm even more stuffed with the mounds of goodies i've received from some darling sweet friends!!! beware, this post has lots of pictures... and a little something that just might boost your sweet spot... =D said i was going to share my cake with you, so here it is....
had to take a pix of the cake in the box... it's so tall that the box can't even close... LOL... the baker had to make shift the top flap so that it could atleast be covered... with a little clear wrap on the front...
this yummy is about 4 inches high by 9 inches wide... the ruler proves the height.... LOL... the top is covered with a light blend of haupia (coconut) filling swirled with guava and passion fruit filling...
here's the half of the cake that we did not touch... lucious tropical blends... the bottom (pink) layer is guava cake with a whipped guava filling... a touch of tart when you bite into this layer... the next layer is passion fruit flavored cake with a whipped passion fruit filling... little bit tart, little bit sweet... the 3rd layer is cocunt cake with a whipped coconut filling and on top of that another layer of cake... it was then covered with a nice light touch of cool whip as frosting... mmmmm.... it was so yummmmy!!! we don't get this all the time because it's so huge and we can't finish it all... but this is on top list for special occasions.... i'm sure there are different variations of this sweet treat as well as different names for it too... but this one here is by far, the best on Maui....

isn't it so kiddie and cute?!?! courtesy of Broke Da Mouth Cookie Company.... yum, yum, yum! it fit the party theme to the fullest.... yes this is the Queen Emma cake that is 4 layers of cake, guava, passion fruit and coconut and in between the cake layers yummy whipped filling in coordinating flavors... yummy goodness... mmmmmm!!! i love the way he did the decorations... and how he made the coconut topping look like sand.... and the lettering is written in chocolate...... oooooh sugar rush! come to think of it, i should have given the baker some fishing poles too... that would have been cute...
well someone surely enjoyed the cake.... he was ready to dive right into the cake before we even sang Happy Birthday.... LOL.... my uncle has the pictures of him eating his first piece of this cake, so i'll have to share it later, but he liked it... and this time he wasn't as messy... hehe!
