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 like them all but key lime and black forrest are my favorites. I just ate a surprisingly delicious key lime tart last weekend in Philadelphia. Today I came to your site to look for the ribbon frosted cake you posted not too long ago, but I will have to consider this key lime endeavor as well. Looks delicious!
Berry Chiffon Cake is my favorite! Pink is my favorite color!
Key Lime is so pretty!
Definitely the Black Forest Cake. Beautiful bags and no calories. :)

Ok. So I’m totally going to make that cake for a friend’s baby shower (she loves key lime…). And if I HAD to choose one of those lovely satchels, I’d go with the plum cake. Adorable. Simply adorable.
First, that cake looks delicious! I can not wait to have a reason to make it! As for the bag, well since I live here in hurricane alley (NW Florida), home of Key Lime Pies, of course I would pick the Key Lime Cream Cake bag! Beatiful! As a side note, I love your blog and refer it to friends all of the time. So creative.

Both my girls are out of the house and life is just toooo quiet! Now, I can’t wait till babies are running around and I would so love to give her this bag. I checked it out from the last time and it is definitely a keeper! So, here is to random and the universe lining up in my or should I say her favor! Cause it would make a great BABY shower gift!
