She also decorated it with beautiful pansy petals from her garden.
The first step is to simmer a cup of oat milk with some small gray tea bags on the stove.
Then she told her to put two eggs and an egg yolk in a bowl and “whisk”.
In another bowl, mix two cups of flour with about one and a half cups of sugar, baking soda and a little sea salt, Bronwyn said.
Then she added about a teaspoon of loose-leaf Earl Gray tea.
“I gave that a good mix,” she said.
Then she took the Earl Gray oat milk from the stove to cool.
Then she added some vanilla butter and the Earl Gray oat milk to the batter and mixed again.
Then she explained that you want to add the eggs and a cup of hot water to loosen the batter.
Bronwyn put two cups of the batter each in three six-inch pans and baked them at 350 for 25 to 30 minutes.
As for the glaze, she had browned the butter the night before.
“I put about half of that and half of regular butter in a bowl and then about two to three cups of frosting, sugar bourbon and vanilla,” she said.
“This is where the fun started. I went out to my garden and picked some beautiful purple violets, they are edible, so this is what I use to decorate the cake.”
She filled the layers with strawberry cardamom jam and covered the cake with bourbon icing.
Fans raved about the cake on TikTok’s comments, which have been viewed nearly 400,000 times.
“There’s nothing I love more than making a beautiful cake for my friends on their birthday,” Bronwyn said.
