don&#8217;t know what it is about that flavouring, but no matter what it&#8217;s in, I LOVE it!\u00a0 My <a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=2677\" target=\"_blank\">Angel Food Cake<\/a> has it, my <a href=\"http:\/\/cookiescupcakesandcardio.co\/?p=3366\" target=\"_blank\">Sugar Cookies<\/a> have it and they are delicious!\u00a0 Whenever it is included in a recipe, I inevitably get asked as to whether it has to be included . . . trust me, it&#8217;s worth buying and trying out.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" style=\"background-image:

cake is for the SPRINKLES!!\u00a0 How can you NOT love sprinkles?\u00a0 They make everything so cheery.\u00a0 An other wise plain looking cake is instantly spruced up with bursts of colours everywhere!\u00a0 There are sprinkles INSIDE and OUTSIDE which make this the perfect cake for celebrating a birthday with.<\/p>\n<p>Covering a cake entirely of sprinkles is surprisingly easy.\u00a0 The only catch is you have to be quick enough to cover the sides with the sprinkles before your buttercream crusts.\u00a0 But even then, with enough pressure, you can press them into the buttercream to make them stick.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>I think this is the perfect cake for a birthday celebration!\u00a0 Growing up, my mom always used to put tin foil wrapped coins in the cakes that she made us.\u00a0 It was always so exciting to find, and dodge chopping down on!\u00a0 It was such a fun tradition . . . you always wanted to be the one who found the quarter, that was until the Canadian Mint invent the loonie, and the twoonie!\u00a0 Whether you stuff this cake full of money or not, it&#8217;s bound to be loved by whoever is eating it!\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size:
