i just did a quick google search but here are some cakes made with buttercream frosting.

I plan on using buttercream as well because I think it tastes the best and I'd rather the cake taste good than look all fancy, IMO.

Ours was buttercream! It was DELICIOUS!!!!! I was at a wedding a few weeks ago where the cake was served with the fondant still on it and it was really nasty. I thought usually they peel it off!

Anyway, here is a picture of our cake. They can do anything at a skilled bakery!



Our RH made it -- it was buttercream on the outside and vanilla cake with vanilla custard filling. Out of this world! I had 3 pieces!!! I brought a picture in to them and they recreated it exactly like I wanted. You can get anything you like!

thanks! i decided on the buttercream for taste alone. i want my cake to taste good not just look great.

i didn't realize you could still get so much texture using buttercream!
