#Latepost for my #birthday. I ❤️ #cake. I ❤️ #sushi. I made a cake that looks like sushi. 3 layers of #coconut cake w/ coconut frosting & #mango curd, from scratch. I unfortunately ran out of frosting for most of the decorating so dyeing mango curd was an improvised move. #homemade #baking #dessert

You're making me feel inspired! Looks like I'm going to be trying some new recipes this season :) It's awesome how much our backgrounds influence our food choices, and we can in turn give ideas to others.

I had it with a fork since the lebna probably would have made it too messy to eat as a finger food. Autumn food is about all the delicious seasonal ingredients to me, but I love soups and stews in the cooling weather! Are there any good ones you're planning to make soon?
