Hummingbird Cake...I don't get the name...

I made this cake (http://www.saveur.com/article/Recipes/Hummingbird-Cake-1000070102) for my co-worker/friend's birthday. Oooops, she is on vacation all week! Ha.
It has been over a month since I last posted something, which means it has been a REALLY long time since I have made something worth posting about! Maybe I made a lot of ice cream, but they all look the same for the most part. This is why I was SO happy to make a frekain' cake!!!

I followed the recipe above to a 'T' and everyone at work LOVED it. Then I added some dehydrated pineapple chips, a white chocolate truffle dusted in gold & gold sprinkles to make it extra fancy! Cause that is how I roll, people. I was also pretty thrilled with my 'ruffled' frosting technique. I hadn't had the opportunity to try it before now. Love. Next time...I am going to add a gradient of color to the frosting. Cannot wait!

Anyhow...make this cake! I promise you will like it.
