Notes: I made this for Christmas Eve one year. I had it on a beautiful plate, wrapped in Saran Wrap. I placed it in a large box to transport and set the box by the front door then went back to the kitchen to get the other food. When I returned my dog, Sophie, had eaten about 1/3 of the cake (and probably some Saran Wrap!). I managed to salvage the untouched portion, sliced it and put it on another pretty plate! What was I thinking? That dog can sniff out food from a mile away!
