This beautiful cake, in honor of the Immaculate Heart of Mary, was submitted by Amy Eastman from Tampa, Florida. Thank you Amy!
"I made this for the Memorial of the Immaculate Heart of Mary. It was a heart-shaped angelfood cake with whipped cream icing, "rose" strawberries and orange rind "flames." I also used mint leaves for the leaves."
Note: You can watch how to carve a rose from a strawberry here.
Immaculate Heart of Mary, whose sweet soul a sword pierced beneath the Cross, pray for us!
