Today's 'Foodie blog' features food blogger Anna-mavritta's Lemon and poppy seed cake. I had to make the decision to avoid putting her blogs header image in, as its not the most designed (and uses a font that I really dislike). Despite her logo design efforts, her lemon and poppy seed cake looks simply scrumptious! Not to mention the generous layer of thick frosting on top. Count me in!
What I like about a Lemon and poppy seed combination is its fresh and zesty taste, alongside the cream frosting which is so simple and unobtrusive! What I like most about the cake is the fact that its not trying to be something its not, Its got frosting, its got fresh berries, it's got lemon and poppy seed. What more could you want than it jumping into your tummy!
