I am the cake baker in my circle of friends and this means that when a b-day is approaching I am pressed into service to bake a great party cake for the birthday bash. This year 2 friends are having significant birthdays - the ones with 0s at the end. Their birthdays are just a few days apart and so there is to be a combined bash.
Problem: they each want a cake.
There will be a bunch of folks at the bash and so 2 cakes is not unreasonable but it seems to me that the two cakes should compliment each other as most folks will try both.
One of person has already specifically requested her favorite cake; an upside down gingerbread pear cake.
The other person has made no specific request but likes lemon and coconut and berry flavors. She dislikes ginger, coffee, chocolate, raisins, almonds and cherries.
What sort of cake do you suggest?
