cream cheese filling. I just purchased some to try something different. I usually just use boxed cakes with buttercream or milk chocolate. I want to expand and saw cream cheese filling. I made the impulse buy and now don't know what kind of cake really would compliment it.

Thanks a bunch!

my favorite is also carrot cake, but you could also use it with a red velvet cake.

I used cream cheese icing on my 4 tier wedding cake, and all 4 tiers were different flavors and it complimented each flavor quite well- carrot, lemon, french vanilla, chocolate. Carrot is my personal favorite though, with cream cheese icing.

I am doing a cake in a few weeks that is a butter cake with a strawberry cream cheese filling and cream cheese icing. Everyone loved the practice one.

I use cream cheese in my frosting....I usually do 1/4 cream cheese, 1/4 butter and 1/2 crisco along with the conf. sugar, vanilla and almond extracts, milk (if needed) and the merengue powder. The cream cheese crusts well so I can smooth my cakes easily.

Regards,
Naty

Strawberry would be good. With sliced fresh or frozen strawberries mixed in with the filling. Yum!

I have made cream filled banana cupcakes that I really like. Im not sure if this interests your or not. Cream cheese filling:
8oz Cream cheese softened
1/3 cup sugar
1 egg
1 cup semi sweet chocolate ( i find minis the easiest )

Combine cream cheese, sugar and egg in bowl. Beat until smooth. Stir in mini chips

With all this cream cheese talk - I made my first whipped cream/cream cheese cake fro mothers day. I just diced up some stawberries and placed them on top of the frosting/filling in the center. - Yummy! and rave reviews. Thanks to all of you for the idea and suggestions!

My dad has requested the same cake for father's day- but with a custard filing - anyone have any suggestions?
