I am looking for a "blow your socks off cake". I'm making a birthday cake for my husband and some of his old friends. I'd like one that is super moist cake, with a delicious filling.

I really want to impress him! It really doesn't matter what flavor or filling as long as it's a GREAT combo. Any and all suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Here are 5 of my favorite cakes. Hope youre DH has a wonderful birthday!
