Vanilla Latte Cake
Vanilla Latte Cake; light fluffy vanilla and coffee cake layered with sweet vanilla and coffee buttercream, simple, soft and delicious!
It’s official, I have become completely addicted to Pokémon Go.
Since it’s release in the UK in the past couple of days, I’ve clocked up over 12 kilometres travel from just wandering around building up and training my little squad. My boyfriend is home from Croatia tomorrow, and our plans above all else are to go Pokémon hunting around town and to be perfectly honest, I couldn’t be happier.
However, in true Scottish style, the rain began to pour this afternoon, leaving me glum and in need of both occupation and sugary solace. Thus the Vanilla Latte Cake was born!
