If you never you never know. : ) When I first the cake, I was like oh no icing sure very sweet but to my surprise not at all cos no sugar but just white chocolate and sour cream. Like the cake but did not get a chance to know how to make it till when Auntie came over to visit Sue. So I met up with Auntie for dinner before she fly back to Ipoh, this time her trip very short but it was a fruitful trip for me. Sue making the cake for her mom to bring back to Ipoh so got a chance to see how it was made. So I made it this year as my birthday cake.

I will say the sour cream really goes well with the white chocolate, cos for someone who does not like sour cream like Jeanne even praise that was great and kept taking the icing to eat. And guess what I made it again last night for someone special :). Happy Birthday to you my dear.
