18th bday, but the flavor choice sounds more like 74th bday, sounds delicious tho.

Lmao thats fair. However i was just improvising tbh...

Welcome to adulthood. No, it actually doesn't get better. Quite the opposite, in fact.

I've never heard of earl grey in a cake, but that sounds tasty!

Happy 18th Butt Domination

The first dozen or so were okay, the early teens were nice, but I'll never forget my 18th Butt Domination

That sounds like an interesting combination. Especially for a cake.

Dates cakes are really underrated. Never did try earl grey in cakes, wouldn't that make them too bitter?

Just steep it in 80°C water rather than boiling water. This will mean less tannins are extracted

Earl gray lemon bars are delicious. Could definitely see it in cake.

Tasty combo, happy birthday.

Nice clean layers, and a lovely border.
