Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
One of Doris' favorite cakes. Marilyn made this for Doris' 80th birthday and decorated it with nasturtiums from the garden. Ed said he especially liked the peppery taste of the nasturtiums and to make sure his piece has his share of nasturtiums. Fred Weinstein requested this for the original version of the cookbook.
