I made this Key Lime Cream Cake to go along with a fun handbag giveaway for today.
If you’ve followed the blog for a while you may remember this Red Velvet Clutch or this Buttercream Bag from a while ago. I know – handbags are kind of weird to show on a baking site, but not when the theme is cake and when the bag colors come in fun flavors like Key Lime Cream. Umm… yes please. The bags are from the Petunia Pickle Bottom line called … Cake. And I’ve been enamored with them for a while now. They are actually fashionably disguised diaper bags. But you can totally rock them without having to carry diapers around all day to justify wearing one. They are definitely too pretty for just one purpose.
I’ll show you in a minute. But first… a little Key Lime Cream Cake.
Decorated with swirls of whipped cream and graham cracker crumbs. Yum!
And four layers of key lime cake. Four uneven layers that I could have split better. But that’s okay. Still good.
Here’s the recipe or if you are more interested in the giveaway, just keep scrolling.

I have never tried making a cake from scratch. YOur creative and inspiring blog has inspired me to try it with the pictures from above. I love all the hand bags, they are so cute! I can’t really decide which one to choose. Can you choose for me? If not, I guess I would go with the Key Lime bag since that will be my first cake to make tomorrow with my daughter. Tomorrow is also my liver/kidney transplant anniversary – going on 12 years now and no signs of losing either one- yippee!!!
Plum tart. They are all beautiful though.

That cake looks amazing! Definitely trying this recipe soon.
As for the bags, I love the Plum Tart handbag.
I like the colours of the Plum Tart cake best. Although I am left wondering exactly how a plum tart cake would taste.
Cannot wait to make this cake for my grandson. He will love it! As for me the plum tart cake would be the one for me. Thank you:)
I’d choose the key lime cake to eat, but the black forest bag to carry! So pretty.

Oh my, they are all gorgeous, much better than the tatty boring black bag Im dragging round with me.
My favourites would be berry chiffon and Key Lime but to be honest, I’d love and cherish any of them!
I was born and raised in Fla. and have tasted many a key lime pie recipes, THIS Key Lime Cream cake is MUST try!
Now for the lovely purse, I like them all, but if I had to choose just one, it has to be Berry Chiffon because I am partial to those cool colors.
I just love love love Berry Chiffon Cake. But how adorrable are all of them?
All of the bags are cute but the Black Forest is my fab. Or the key lime
Black forest cake FTW!
I love Black Forest !!!!!
berry chiffon, delicious :-)
Black forest cake bag! But I’d want to eat key lime cake
Mmm…plum tart cake, of course!
Love them all but the Berry Chiffon is super cute!
That key lime cake looks divine! Perfect for summer! For the bags, I would have to go with Plum Tart Cake. Love the color combo!
Oh..I love them all, but most the Black Forrest Cake!! :)

Black Forest Cake please.
Hope all is well and you are enjoying your summer.
oohlala I love the berry chiffon cake bag. Thank you for the opportunity
Definitely the Black Forest Cake! I was happy to give up the diaper bag 10 years ago but its function is definitely missed. It is hard to find a bag that does it all but this one may hit the mark.
The Plum Tart is pure art! I love it!
I love them all…. but especially the Black Forest Cake.
They all look divine but since I am wearing more green lately, I would choose the Key Lime Cream Cake purse. It looks like something straight out of Anne of Green Gables, one of my favorite books!
The next time I see limes at the market, I’ll pick some up and give this yummy cake a try. It sure sounds like it would hit the spot on a hot summer night.
I love the Plum Tart Cake!!
I love your blog! Plum tart is a pretty color.
Definately the Key Lime Cream Cake.

Black Forest Cake seems kinda popular – and I can understand! Love it!!!
My Huzz loves key lime pie, so I have to test this recipe on him. Maybe it’ll finally make him like cake!
I love all of the bags, and while the Black Forest one would be more practical, for some reason, I’m drawn to the Berry Chiffon one. Thanks for the recipe and the giveaway opportunity!
