UBE MACAPUNO CAKE

I've been busy that I had no time to try baking new cake flavors.
Its the time of the year where me and my husband celebrates our birthday, yes "our birthday" my husband's birthday is on 19th while my birthday is on 21st just a day interval.
So we always have a one combined celebration at home. So we invited just some of our relatives for a lunch birthday celebration.

Though I can buy ready made cake of any flavors to any leading bakeshop at the mall, but I chose to bake my own coz its been long that I've been wanting and plaaning to try this "Ube Macapuno Cake" but I can't find time to make one. So now, I dont have excuses..
