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.

Oh and it has a separate little clutch, too. Check out this post on the red velvet bag I gave away a while back – it really shows off some of the details.

Okay, we have a winner. Yay! And I thought for sure it would be someone that picked Black Forest Cake based on all of the responses.
Congratulations Jamie! I hope you love your plum tart cake bag!
Oh man… they’re all so pretty!! My favorite is definitely Plum Tart :)
This is your first blog that i have read. The key lime cake looks good. I can use this for beach themed weddings. I find uneven cakes more appealing because they have a more homemade feel. I like the key lime bag. :)
The key lime cream cake bag looks almost as delicious as the cake! I love it! and i can’t wait to make this cake for my mom’s birthday–she LOVES key lime pie.
Black Forest cake because yum!

I cannot wait to try my hand at the Key Lime Cream Cake! And the gorgeous bag that I would pick – Black Forest!
looking forward to making this and I believe your four unperfect layers give it true character. My fav flavor is Key Lime, esp. since this summer has been so hot&humid, I would be proud to have that darling cake bag.

Black forest because it would go with everything!
