The two teaspoons in this will seem pretty strong when you blend them with the sugar, but they mellow out when mixed with the rest of the batter. I have served this cake to many different people, and everyone seems to love it. I think you should be fine serving it to even the pickiest of guests.Dorothy at Belle of the Kitchenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13746407425585286197noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7617482628482712537.post-70497502669317151802010-06-03T14:46:26.130-04:002010-06-03T14:46:26.130-04:00While I love the scent of lavender, I've never...While I love the scent of lavender, I've never eaten anything with it. Is it a strong or really unique flavor that picky guests might not like? Or is it something subtle that everybody likes and so would be safe to serve to house guests? I only ever make cakes when we have people in so I am a little nervous, but really intrigued!!!Leah @ Stirred, Not Shakenhttp://nevershaken.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7617482628482712537.post-86466384738895284882010-05-27T07:25:30.828-04:002010-05-27T07:25:30.828-04:00Thank you for having visited my blog.
