Here's the Pear Cake with Honey Lemon Frosting that I made for Rosh Hashanah dessert.
Taste-wise, it was just ok...too damp and not sufficiently redolent of pear. But, damn, it looked good.
How was the frosting, though...?

Posted by: molly on October 5, 2003 10:22 PMNope, not fiesta. Rowantrees Pottery of Blue Hill, Maine. It's been my collection obsession for years. It's all hand thrown and I love it best because it's mine, mine, mine, as opposed to more recognizable stuff. The cake stand was a MAJOR coup, after many years of stalking the ebay listings. Click the "if you don't know what to get me" link on the right to see more.
