Um, I have no idea what that comment is…

But it should have started out with that certain emoticon! and then said that cake is lovely and the almond would have been a fantastic substitute for the hazelnuts.

It’s gorgeous. Your decorative buttercream looks so fluffy. Mone wanted to slide off the cake!

Love the drizzle!

Very lovely, Ivonne! And I agree, anything covered with chocolate glaze is a winner in my book!

Oh I LOVE how you decorated the cake!! This was a most delightful challenge and did you know I am one year old with the DBs now?!!! Kisses!

I love the caramel wafers, beautiful job!

I’m a new daring baker and I thought the reveal day was tomorrow, July 31, so I just put my cake up on my blog! It came out good for a first attempt, and I learned so much by making it.

Your cake is gorgeous Ivonne! So professional looking!

I have to learn how to make those sugar decorations. Yours look fabulous!

Ivonne, you’re so good at what you do! I love the drizzled frosting on top. You always make everything look so elegant!

Great presentation - the packaging just makes you want to cut into it and we already know that there’s only pleasure in the tasting.

Have fun on vacation! Your cake turned out splendid!

Mmm, almonds are my favorite! Your cake, of course, looks lovely!

Have a great vacation!

Love the way you decorated the cake. Looks great!

Picture perfect! The drizzle is gorgeous and I love the almond-chocolate combo.

HAR! One of these days we’re going to trip up that evil lil elf. Course Dr. Clooney will have come to work full time so he’ll keep a watchful eye over you.

Stunning cake!
xoxoxxo

the cake is perfectly mouth watering with the white chocolate drizzle!

Looks delicious! Thanks for completing this even though your heading out on vacation. Take me with you? Enjoy! Can’t wait to hear about it.

Wow!!
Your cake looks absolutely beautiful! I love the almond idea and will keep that in mind for future nut cakes.
Lovely decorating job, did you save me some?

I love your cake. The sugar decorations are amazing.

Gorgeous!

Do you have an email I can contact you at with professional questions about the blog? You can reach me at the listed email.

Thanks!

Your cake looks absolutely perfect!

I love your plates! And your cake looks adorable!

I love your sugar decorations!

Your cake looks great! I like the decorations! Time is going by too quickly. I must find that elf and take the remote away.

The only good thing I can see about how quickly time moves is that it won’t be long until we get our next challenge- It’s always exciting to see what it will be! It looks like you made it through this one with flying colors as per usual, so I can’t wait to see how you execute August’s as well. It’ll be here in no time, I tell you!

Have a great trip, my little puff of cream.

Talk soon.

Ivonne…love the cake! The decorations, oh, wish I had the patience to do things like that. I love baking, but I get to the point where I really can’t be bothered to care what it LOOKS like. So long as it tastes good, I’m usually satisfied.

Fantastic job!

Your cake looks beautiful! That slice makes me want to dip a spoon into my screen.;-)

Love your cake! Great job!

I love the sugar decorations, the one in the middle looks like he is dancing. Have a wonderful trip.

looks so delicious. I’m kind of glad that I didn’t make it in time for the DB signup last month. That looks so complicated and i would’ve been in trouble with the first challenge.

Enjoy your vacation - I’ll do the same. And then we’ll meet here again in September!

your cake looks absolutely sumptuous!
