The flavor is much more just sweet than Coke-like, but you can definitely taste it in the icing (in my opinion). And it was so much fun to throw her a surprise party, even if it wasn't in person.

Dr Pepper is surely more Texan than Coke, but I didn't want to make something that sucked, and I know this recipe too well.<br />That's so funny how you read that - I do that all the time, and I'm like, wait - whaaaa? And then I realize that I just can't read properly! Hahahaha!<br />I hope you like what's in the boxes. Once the shenanigans started, they kind of snowballed.

I usually don't like icing or frosting, but when it soaks into the cake, well... then you have to like it, right?<br />This was so fun - I love how much we surprised her!!!Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18248327206223128557noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375617680384228238.post-763452745850073822013-03-07T19:35:45.515-07:002013-03-07T19:35:45.515-07:00Drooling.

If I were to pick a Southern favorite, it would be this cake and peach cobbler. It's a staple sugar fix and a long-standing Texas tradition. I can't remember the last time I had one, but I'm guessing it was right before my dentist found that last cavity.<br /><br />Thank you so much for the fabulous cake and all the love that went into it. I'm completely & officially blown away. I was blindsided by the boxes that came in yesterday, and never saw this one coming. What a great surprise. I'd give you 50 quick reasons why I have the greatest friends ever, but there are way more than 50 reasons you all rock. This has been the best birthday thanks to all of you.<br /><br />PS - one last chuckle. When I read your fun fact, it looked like this in my mind - Fun Fact: Many white people...<br /><br />I'm still laughing over it. You know, they say the mind is the first thing to go.NanaBread (Jeanne)http://insidenanabreadshead.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8375617680384228238.post-71715175780210314792013-03-07T08:16:12.796-07:002013-03-07T08:16:12.796-07:00Allison....this cake looks so scrumptious!

I like both...but icing that hardens to shiny goodness....yeah....I'm on board with that!
