Day 2 under Christmas Dinner and I could not miss a cake .I would have loved to make Christmas Cake , but I already have two versions of it. Cakes have always been a must on Christmas when the girls were here . In fact we all were so fond of cakes that we either got one or made one . We just needed an excuse to eat cakes . With passing time everyone has become conscious and we avoid sweets . Juhi is the youngest and still very young so once in a while we do indulge into these treats . We do not want her to get over conscious at such an early age .In fact this cake has been baked by her, I just stepped in at the last minute to add those toppings and click pictures.
