This recipe was used for Sean’s and Wanda’s wedding cake and most recently a birthday cake for Jim (a close family friend).
Yum! Look at those layers of Kahlua and coffee and chocolate and cream cheese Marsala frosting. I figured if Jim could remember a cake for 13 years and remind me every year therein the poor boy earned his own damn cake. I just halved the recipe and made four 8” round layers. The cute ribbon wrapping idea came from Sky High Cakes.
How many times the recipe was made for the wedding cake is a mystery. It looks like I must’ve made it a BAZILLION times. Wanda chose it from Bon Appetite magazine. Dig this old photo and all that foliage.
Sorry about the resolution – were there digital cameras in 1996?
Oh look here’s SFB at the top of the cake.

That’s THE most beautiful cake I’ve ever seen. It ranks right up there with Sean and Wanda’s wedding cake and your peanut butter/chocolate/peanut-brittle masterpiece!
By the by, Wanda and I were just reminiscing about her wedding cake with SFB on top, and how hysterically funny we thought it was.
